Republicans looking for Hilary transcripts to leak during the general election

The Hill reports:
GOP operatives on the prowl for secret Clinton transcripts
Quote:
Quote:Ian Prior, the communications director for the well-funded Republican group American Crossroads, said information about the Goldman Sachs speeches could prove cataclysmic for the Democratic Party.
Finding and releasing the transcripts “would be a heck of a way to outflank Hillary on her left [in a general election] and stop Bernie’s supporters from voting for her,” he said.
“Just mail the Goldman Sachs transcripts to every Bernie supporter. There’s your targeted mail program right there."
In other words, as if it wasn't clear enough already, if you want a Republican in the Oval Office, vote for Hilary Clinton in the Democratic Party primaries.

We've had this discussion before. It's too late for this argument in 2016. For better or worse, Hillary will be the Democratic nominee. Pick a side in the Hillary vs. Trump general in November because that's reality. You want a far-left Democratic candidate for President? Look to 2020 or 2024. My bet is that you'll get your wish at that time because that seems to be the direction we are moving in. But not today. For 2016, it's Hillary or Trump. Live for today and plan for tomorrow.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

I can't vote in the election as I don't live in the United States. However I like to be informed about it. It's a fun spectacle to watch.

It's no fun at all. On one side a disaster waiting to happen and on the other side a corporate shill without any visions.

Why don't those people have more important things to focus on. Ffs, some fucking transcripts are not as important as what needs to be done to fix our economy or our health care system or getting back to an actual livable wage. I am so sick of this "he said, she said" bullshit that does nothing to help what's currently going on in our country.

Given that Bernie is still in the race, I'd say if the transcripts really do anything dramatic, it will be to help Hillary get kicked down, and give Bernie the nomination. Which polls seem to indicate will make it harder for trump to win.

I agree. Where's the substance? Donald and Hilary keep contradicting themselves. Donald is so outlandish and Hilary can only talk in clichès and platitudes.

If (since?) Hillary sold her soul (snicker) to Goldman Sachs, fixing the economy and the livable wage item would be subject to what Goldman Sachs thinks is in their best interest.
A look behind the curtain, so to speak, and seeing how the sausage is made is just what we need, (and the electorate is clamoring for) especially this year.
If Hillary has Snowden'd herself, she should be held in similar esteem as Snowden is, and those making use of the information cannot be faulted.
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
