In reply to the discussion: Hillary Clinton: It was "intervention by Comey" [View all]Jersey Devil
(9,874 posts)4. Hillary just can't turn the page
It's understandable for her personally. But it doesn't help one bit what the reasons were for her loss in terms of rescuing our country from Trump.
All she can do is turn herself into a sympathetic figure. We have a different job and empathy for Hillary, no matter how strong or sincere, won't matter at all.
We should be concentrating on what we can do to get our country back. Hillary is the past. We need the future.

I agree. It was like a punch in the gut when Comey's letter announcing the investigation came out.

Speaking of terror attacks, I am convinced Kerry would have won in 2004 if a Bin Laden video

I would argue that it wasn't too close. Comey completely overhauled the race with his stunt.

I don't agree that Comey moved the needle "just enough." I think he moved it a whole lot.

It's a ridiculous question because it sets up the implication that we are debating whether or not
