WikiLeaks generally releases things when they are ready, or when they will make the most impact. They don't care about how this affects the election; they care about releasing information. Plus, Assange doesn't like Clinton at all, so he probably doesn't want to see her in power anyway.

Releasing them right before the DNC might make them a talking point.

Interesting. I don't like Hillary much these days either, but from the viewpoint she is actively and complicity aiding and abetting Trump, or is so self absorbed as to not realize she's doing it, which is palpably worse.

She gives the appearance of having been deeply surrounded for WAY too long by folks she has hand picked to only tell her what she wants to hear, and she acts accordingly. The wake up call, while inevitable, maybe won't, maybe will, happen first Tuesday/November.

Given how stupid she is when it comes to military operations.... she would start ww3

The truly disturbing thing is that someone at the DNC is using the term "peeps", when not in reference to the Easter Candy.

Of note, Bernie Sanders won West Virginia handily (though he did lose Kentucky in a close one).

I mean it's a little fucking shady that they'd do this, but this is the extent of what they've done? Really? Going to have to be bigger than that to convince me not to vote for Hillary (not to mention this wasn't even Hillary, it was someone at the DNC). This 'scandal' is pretty small. Not a fan of asking candidates about their religion, but you know it's also going to come up at some point. I don't recall many Atheist smears against Sanders (and Sanders himself came off saying that everyone believes in god or some bullshit like that). Don't think we'll be seeing a movie about this anytime soon. (Also wondering when we'll see the RNC emails. Here's a guess as to when: NEVER.)

They don't use email, they scribble messages in latin on human skin and have emaciated runners hand carry them to their destination..which is coincidentally the final resting place of each courier.
