Hillary laughs when asked to release transcripts of her speeches at Goldman.

Then says she will look into it.
Something tells me it's worse than the 47% line by mitt. If she had nothing to hide, the transcripts would promptly be release for public consumption. How does anyone support this? She's laughing hardest at the folks who support her but theyre all too busy to notice because they're re-arranging deck chairs on the Titanic.

1. Whether she said anything damaging or not, declining to release them LOOKS like hiding something

I think this is a misstep.

2. Don't you think IF there was nothing damaging she would have already released them?

[cyberswede]

3. That's my point...that is the logical conclusion, whether accurate or not.

I suspect she did say things that wouldn't be helpful, because speakers tailor their remarks for the audience (like when IA Rep Bruce Braley said something stupid about farmers during a speech to other lawyers).

4. Of course she would.

That's not the scenario she is presented with in any regard.

I'm pretty sure something will eventually leak out about her speeches though, and it will become a case of proving it wrong which would be impossible without releasing the transcripts.

I think she made a grave error in judgement on that particular debate question, although she probably never expected to hear such a question and so was caught off guard without a clever anecdote.

5. Today she indicated she won't even look into it until everyone else releases their transcripts...

7. Who the hell is everyone else. Bernie doesn't make speeches or take money from WallStreet.

8. She thinks this is a winning argument?

"Let everybody who's ever given a speech to any private group under any circumstances release them... we'll all release them at the same time."

Not everybody is running for president. Not everybody has to release their financial statements, their tax returns. Not everybody has to undergo vetting. Just candidates.

If she has nothing to hide... release them. Otherwise, it looks like she wants to mislead the country about what she's going to do about her investors, her benefactors, after reassuring them behind closed doors that she's really on their side.

Her sarcastic, smug, superior, put-upon attitude is simply galling.

9. Wow

11. I'm Ted Cruz and I approve this message /

6. My prediction...

Pro-TPP talk. And how awesome the banks are and how the grumbling of the proletariat is silly.

I don't think it would be anything nearly as bad as the 47% comments. But, it will further solidify her as the establishment candidate. Not to mention destroy any credibility she might have in regards to reigning in Wall street. That would be very damaging in this primary.
