    We don't need Russian hackers to help us prove that Trump is full of ****, we have video of the debates and his speeches.

    Clinton is in the first week of the best month of her life. She gets to do a month-long victory tour, then a nice long Christmas break, before settling down to be President. Not only has she put on a brave face for the personal attacks, I think it actually doesn't faze her at all. Meanwhile, all the hard work of campaigning is basically done and all she has to do is run the machine and watch Trump melt down.

    There is no true scotsman...but at least in terms of presidential contests, I can't think of any confrontation in modern history in which one candidate is clearly aligned with the generally positive parts of the emotional spectrum and reason and the other one is clearly aligned with fear, vengeance and unreason.

    Most people have said that a Trump victory basically means the end of America as we know it, at least in terms of a liberal democratic society - primarily due to the above.

    She was my senator for a number of years, she spent her time serving the state admirably, just like she did as first lady, and she went on to do as SoS.

    I think I know the answer, but anyway, why do you pretend to have SECRET KNOWLEDGE as to her true actions that I lack? You are by all means probably less informed than me on most of the relevant issues (save probably the Benghazi attack which I'm sure you've studied in great detail) - why should I listen to you rather than trust myself?

    She actually came up with a pretty good healthcare plan of the type everybody is nowsaying we should move to. It got killed of course but too bad, we are still paying the price for that failure of imagination by powerful interests.

    She was pretty well reviewed as a senator in terms of both representing the interests of NYState (especially after 2001) and was instrumental in the Ledbetter Act and has a pretty good track record of working in a bipartisan fashion (GOP senators were allegedly surprised in the 2000's to figure out she was not a she devil). Obviously the Iraq vote is a black mark on her record, of course, all the cool kids were doing it at the time.

    In foreign policy she was pretty decent hands on SOS, certainly better than Kerry - getting China, Russia and the EU to agree on sanctions against Iran is probably a feat that will never be replicated.

    Trump does this all the time. He doesn't take any time to vet his information, even after he has been corrected. This is why he often lives in conspiracy land. And why he's an easy mouthpiece for someone like Putin.

    My personal favorite is Podesta claiming Hilary's Iran deal will lead to the next generations nuclear war in the Persian Gulf.

    Commander and chief.....

    Yes, fewer states with nuclear weapons will lead to nuclear war. Not unlike how restricting access to guns will increase gun violence.

    I said a couple of days ago that this was going to happen- they're comparing Trump to Beyonce- now they're going to go after all the rappers with misogynistic lyrics. Expect more in the next several days.

    Expecting this defense for eventual leak of him dropping racial slurs.
