Hillary is now hurting the party and Bernie [View all]

Full stop.

Hillary is hurting both the party & Bernie on an epic scale. She needs to step down NOW. This is disenfranchising voters in who will be voting in a GE. Dems can not afford this at all. As it is, most American's do not trust her and now all this with the emails and how she knowingly lied about it all for over a year?

This is seriously bad. Really bad. She is hurting both the party and in the process, making Bernie look as well who is now seemingly looking like he could be the candidate thanks to all of this.

This is all over the news and all over the internet and it is a wildfire of a story covered by every single major media outlet in both print and web as a top story and has been for the last 48 hours now.

This is really hurting her, her image and the Democratic Party overall. I don't want to see her be recommended for indictment but at this stage, the damage has already been done. She no longer needs to be.
