If it gives you that much angst you should trash threads by key word so as to avoid having to see them and FFS don't start OPs about her email screw up.

Support of the death penalty, close association with large financials, support for the Iraq war, support of DOMA, a combination of past and present positions and activities that demonstrate cautious following instead of bold leadership.

It keeps changing, and they are bored. It won't be a factor in choosing a candidate and voting.

Trump is far more entertaining.

Because they are going to drill the hell out of her on this. There will be calls for impeachment should she get that far. Government will be frozen for all things not about this. Her and Bill could make big history as the only husband and wife to hold POTUS position.... and be impeached.

The prima facie evidence is there.

What TPTB are going to do about it is another matter entirely.

35. Some are. Some aren't. How Clinton screwed up the security on her server:
Fri Jan 29, 2016, 10:44 PM
Jan 2016

What we know so far:

1) Communications with her server were not encrypted for the first 3 months.
https://www.venafi.com/blog/post/what-venafi-trustnet-tells-us-about-the-clinton-email-server/

2) They left the default VPN keys installed on her server
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-03-04/clinton-s-e-mail-system-built-for-privacy-though-not-security

Using those addresses, McGeorge discovered that the certificate appearing on the site Tuesday appeared to be the factory default for the security appliance, made by Fortinet Inc., running the service.


3) They were using, and continue to use, self-signed SSL certificates
http://gawker.com/how-unsafe-was-hillary-clintons-secret-staff-email-syst-1689393042

4) They set up a .com domain, enabling the typosquater who has registered clintonmail.com (no "e" before "mail&quot . Whoever registered that domain is in a perfect position to steal login information or perform spear phishing attacks.

5) Her ISP was repeatedly hacked by China
