Bernie Sanders

Last night, the challenge seems to have been accepted that Hillary would release her Wall Street transcripts after Bernie releases his tax returns.
I think Bernies team wanted just this scenario.
His tax returns won't have anything controversial.
He is one of the least wealthy in the Senate.
I'm looking forward to seeing this play out.
Her transcripts might just be a game changer if they are full of tons of banker praise.

Kasich- that nerd would bore even the most boring room of bankers.
Trump - doubt he would do it for only $225 grand unless it was for a room full of female bankers that were former strippers, I mean models, I mean ex-wives.

(6,114 posts)As far as I can tell, Clinton is the only candidate from either party with any speech transcripts, released or not. Not Sanders. Not Trump, Cruz, or Kasich.
Who is she waiting to follow?

(12,882 posts)I was at first excited when the the CNN host pressed Hillary about those transcripts last night. As far as I've heard, she's NEVER defind just WHO "all the others" are. Does that mean that the 3 remaining GOPers have to produce stuff too? There's only ONE contender for the DEM primary left, but she keeps crowing "all the others". Maybe it's time someone pressed her about that.
Last night she's managed to turn the focus on Sander's taxes. OH! So now it's taxes and maybe any OTHER documents she can call for. Again, no specifics - which is mighty handy. And so after Sanders defended his tax papers slow release, did the moderators come back to Hillary to ask if that would be the threshold for releasing her transcripts? NO. Behind that scowl she wore, there had to be one big sigh of relief.
There's real embarrassment in those transcripts. And she's trying her damnedest to keep them hidden for as LONG as possible. And she's successful thanks to the enabling of a gutless 4th estate - our sorry-ass "news" networks.
