And that was the doing of political rivals a.k.a. Republicans. Nobody said a word about FDR and Lucy Rutherfurd, Ike and Kay Summersby, or JFK and Marilyn Monroe, and certainly not Abe Lincoln and Joshua Speed. Private lives were always just that: private and off limits until a serial adulterer from Georgia made them "fair game".
I hate Republicans with every fiber of my being.

Here's the debasing of American politics right here, actively coordinated and orchestrated by the media, the Democrats and surrogates.

One needs no further evidence of this than the recent releases from Wikileaks.
And we have a president who wants to put someone in charge of "curating" it: https://www.yahoo.com/news/obama-dec...214642552.html
I'm sure his buddies at Google will be happy to take that on. Here comes 1984, just a few years late.

If Bill Clinton's offense(s) were impeachable, that should then automatically disqualify Trump and then by default, Hillary becomes President. Is that what you are advocating whell?

Not to the progressives from what I see.
Quote:
There are numerous examples of the campaign trying to figure out where it stands in relation to Sens. Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders, the party’s two most visible liberal standard-bearers. And at times, Clinton’s attempts at a leftward shift caused some in the finance industry to feel shunned by the former New York senator.
"The campaign was clearly evolving toward the left in the exact sort of way I imagine Bernie Sanders was seeking to push her," said Jeff Hauser, executive director of the Center for Economic and Policy Research’s Revolving Door Project, which is aligned with the Warren wing of the party.
"They realized they needed to become more and more progressive. They realized they needed to shift on trade and on banks. They recognized that speeches given in 2013 are not the type of rhetoric they would ever use going forward."

Let's look at the bright side, her speeches to WS is no longer a secret.

Honestly, Whell, how difficult is if for you to watch the nominee of your party behaving the way he is now? I know that you will try to deflect by raising accusations against Bill Clinton, but focus for a minute. Don't you fear for what his candidacy is doing to your party?
