The big news about Hillary that the 'Pubbies have been alluding to for the last couple weeks is an oppo research 'book' by a Breitbart hack and former Bush political operative named Peter Schwiezer.

http://thinkprogress.org/election/20.../clinton-cash/

"An upcoming book about the Clintons’ foreign donors has whipped the media into a frenzy. After presidential candidate Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) teased for weeks that the book contained scandalous revelations about Hillary Clinton’s actions in the State Department, many in the media are asserting its contents could “derail her campaign.”
Clinton Cash, by former Bush speechwriter and Breitbart.com contributor Peter Schweizer, is billed as a game-changer for Clinton’s candidacy, revealing that the Clinton State Department traded favors for big donations to the Clinton Foundation and speaking fees for Bill Clinton. “The author, Peter Schweizer, says he has evidence of a pay-to-play scheme,” Fox News’ Sean Hannity noted."

Between this and all the missing emails, there may be some there there, at least in the eyes of many voters.

Only to the righties who wouldn't vote for her anyway.

1) Missing emails = BENGHAZI!
Already debunked by the Repugnants themselves.

2) This one about the Clinton Foundation donations is another sleazy hack job, imo.

Hillary wears Teflon coated reactive Kevlar armor.

Hillary Clinton to me is like a bad recurring nightmare.
My motto is ABC.

I hope the media does a credible job of running this story down and investigating Sweizer's allegations. But you know, as was the case with Dinesh D'Souza, the author's affiliations and previous credibility problems, if exploited, will work to Hillary's advantage.

I kinda like Bill and his enlightened roguishness. Hillary leaves me cold, however.

'Anyone But Clinton'.

You'll get used to having a woman in charge, Raj and Finn.

I was hoping Kam Harris would succeed Gov. Moonbeam but Gavin Newsome will do.
