4. It's the corporate-owned press that won't allow their scandals
to escalate. Years ago they harped on the Clenis 24/7. Every repuke fake or overblown accusation was treated as gospel truth. The headlines were atrocious and retractions, if written at all, were on the bottom of page 27.

Despite all this kid glove treatment, people are disgusted with this congress and administration and getting moreso every day. Talk to people. Keep the conversation on the scandals and how much more serious they are than Clinton's. The morals party has none. It's up to us to do the media's job. Props, of course, to KO, Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert.
