I dread watching the GE matchup. Trump has pretty much revealed all of his "baggage" and done what he usually does...bluster right on through it. And what is different this time that was not nearly as much as before, is the social media/internet aspect.
She's from the time when you could pretty much get away, as most politicians were wont to do, and say different things to different groups. Mitt Romney broke through that glass ceiling with his famous 47% comment. Now it's got to be closed door and secret speeches sans transcripts.
I don't think there is a lot more out there on Trump, but betwen her transcripts and the Clinton Foundation...she's not been "vetted" on that, if one means scrutiny by an opposition candidate. The MSM has been easy on her on thoses matters.
HRC is not used to such blatant frontal attack. Even the Benghazi hearings marathon were carried out with polite decorum, as I recall.
The Republican Hate Machine has never had this golden opportunity, and I don't think it bodes well.
