Expect Hillary Clintons campaign to dwindle down fast.

MSNBC has a top headline with a scathing article about the state dept. report. They imply Clinton is a liar. They say she is in a lot more trouble than she is leading people to believe. I saw this coming. About two weeks ago Jake Tapper did a report on her email investigation and called her out for spinning the details. At that point I figured the media was going to start pivoting away from her and let the tide take them on to the next candidate. Well, this is the article that I think changes the tide.

I was at my office, where I was probably the most outspoken liberal Democrat. My co-worker sitting next to me, nice guy and Right-leaning Republican, asked me what I thought about reports that the Reagan campaign had been caught stealing the Carter campaign's debate briefings. In order to bait another Republican, this one obnoxious and overbearing when he expressed his views, I went over the top, and said, "Reagan needs to be impeached for this! The death penalty needs to be considered!" My nice Republican colleague got exactly what I was doing and smiled at me.

I trust that no one misses the relevance here. To drive in the message let me say, Perspective, people!

It usually helps make your point when you copy a few paragraphs from the article (usually four is good because copyright/use "snip" as appropriate) and encouraged people to follow links.

Every single time she did not fall apart as claimed and the only people promoting such things are some of the worst losers I have ever seen.

The desperation from the losing side in these final hours isn't pretty.

Bernie Sanders...he is out in about 10 days now. The email Bs which I watched last night is hilarious. Powell has turned over exactly none of his email...and refuses to respond...state has a really terrible system and it is a joke as is the nothing burger report...you all lose all discernment in futile hope.
