Politico remarks: Hillary Needs to Move On

[laserhaas]

The Politico reporter - JoAnn Weiss - posting the story "Hillary Clinton Needs to Move On " acknowledges the hit parade is imminent, in today's article - in the questioning:

....Why is one of the most qualified leaders in the world continuing to let Trump define her, when she could be changing the subject?

Additionally....Weiss reflects:

It's tough to lose an election for student council, let alone for president. So it made sense that, after November 2016, Hillary Clinton would have spent some time wallowing in the past, howling at the universe with a side of Chardonnay. That’s the frame of mind she described in What Happened, her post-campaign memoir that came out in September, which was more of an angry play-by-play of how she was wronged than a clear-headed self-assessment of the race. Now, five months after the book came out, 15 months after the election, Clinton’s been spotted promoting family friend Lanny Davis’ new book, The Unmaking of the President 2016: How FBI Director James Comey Cost Hillary Clinton the Presidency.

We just passed Groundhog Day on the calendar, but it feels like we’re still living it; we can’t break free from the gnashing and rehashing of the 2016 election. It’s not just the Mueller probe and legitimate questions about Russian influence. It’s the emotional notes of triumph and defeat. President Donald Trump hasn’t dropped the subject, which is as perplexing as anything else Trump has done. But Clinton hasn’t dropped it, either. And at this point, she should.

Greg Palast has the facts on how Hillary not only lost despite her win of popular vote; but that the GOP blocked an additional 7 million votes.

Including game changers like Michigan, where Hillary lost by a few thousand; and 75000 black votes were refused.

1. Do you have a link and what exactly is your point? nt

[laserhaas]

5. Link is in the story words

And here you go
https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2018/02/11/hillary-clinton-trump-move-on-216961

My point is this should be an exemption to LBN

instead, it is here

[genxlib]

2. You need a selection that reads...

"Hillary can damn well do whatever the hell she wants just like every man who has ever lost an election."

I would vote for that one.

[laserhaas]

4. Thumbs up

Agree

[eleny]

6. +1!

[laserhaas]

10. As you wish...

[genxlib]

29. Thank you

It is with some pride (but little surprise) that my selection is running away with it.

As an old white guy, this helps with my feminist cred.

[MustLoveBeagles]

14. Thank you

I just voted for that option.

[Eliot Rosewater]

3. HRC would have joined Barack Obama as top 5 presidents of all time.

Chief traitor in the WH needs to be in prison.

ON election day votes were flipped.

[laserhaas]

7. Definitely would have been a - breed apart - of

Donald the Great (destroyer of things)

[pandr32]

12. I completely agree

I am so sick of the narrative she "lost" when in spite of all the shit that was flung at her she won. She was cheated of her incredible victory and from finally shattering that last glass ceiling.
We are all the losers now.

[Eliot Rosewater]

16. Eventually proof of vote tampering on election day in those 4 states will come out

just a matter of time.

Way more of us than them.

[pandr32]

17. Yep

The results made no sense whatsoever and I never bought the explanations that she failed because of this or that for a second.

[global1]

8. Isn't Trump The One That Should Move On....

He's the one that keeps pulling Hillary back into the chaos.

[laserhaas]

9. A...frigging...men

[Cha]

21. I posted almost

the same as you and I didn't see yours.. and I never use that expression.

Weird. lol

[Cha]

20. AFrigginMen!

Thank you, global!

trump is obsessed with Hillary.. and President Obama

[laserhaas]

11. Apropos

22. Snap!

[Me.]

13. Again With This

Who is anyone to say what she should do? And shouldn't we be discussing how Russia interfered with the election or does she think such an attack is old/fake news? I guess those 3 million more votes despite Comey & the Russians don't mean anything or count for nothing. It's a real sign of weakness and a bully move to hit on someone who has been knocked in the head and kicked around Ms. Weiss.

[laserhaas]

15. Agree. More important things than rubbing salt in wounds

That's why I put up a new vote category (per request of a comment or)

[GoCubsGo]

18. Oh, FFS. We barely hear from Hillary.

Jo Ann Weiss can go take a long walk off a short pier.

[JI7]

19. Fuck this person. He attacks her every fucking day yet it's her that needs to be lectured to

And told to go away.

[betsuni]

23. Seems to me that the "Hillary needs to move on" people are the same ones

who despise Democrats for moving on too quickly after the corruption of the 2000 and 2004 elections and the Bush administration. Which is it? Why is the corruption of the 2016 election no big deal suddenly?

[arthritisR_US]

24. Your country has always sent out people to protect democracy in

country’s where it is being blocked or obliterated and your country is now being a complete hypocrite in its actions and support for the pig in office and the pimps supporting him.

[Hortensis]

25. Of course, Hillary WON'T take attention off Trump and Repubs.

This is pretty basic stuff. The corruption of the Republican Party has become so profound that they are demonstrating it to the world every day.

So we let them. This is not the time for Democrats to leap in front of the cameras and say, "Look at me instead!" And we're not.

[DetlefK]

26. Politico was rididulously anti-Clinton during the campaign.

Read their old articles from 2016. Politico has NO CREDIBILITY WHATSOEVER when it comes to reporting anything about Hillary Clinton.

[Croney]

27. Hillary can move on, over, around, and through the intellectual capacity of any bozo in politics

anywhere.

[left-of-center2012]

28. Let's all move on

We need to concentrate on beating the GOP this fall and in 2020.

[StevieM]

30. I don't want to normalize what James Comey did.

If we stop talking about it then it may happen again.
