Anyone else wish this nomination wasnt contested by using things like "snipergate"...
and "pastorgate"? Seems like a contest on how to throw off the other person off their message long enough.

1. Sure I wish
But doesnt seem to help, although Hillary should have known that the Networks had video of that. Just seemed senseless

4. There's so little diff between them policy wise that this kind of stuff was inevitable.

5. Wow. Two completely different situations
One involves the candidate herself LYING. The other involves a pastor being smeared.

What the hell is wrong with your head that you would conflate the two???

No wonder this country is such a fucking mess.

10. one, calm down,if you want to talk i dont respond well to huff and bluff.
two, im not talking about the two incidents themselves, im talking about how they are being used. Remember when obama gave the gov of new mexico a heads up on a debate question? wouldnt it be great if there was enough goodwill between these two democrats that he could defend her mistake, instead of calling her out on it?

9. CLinton cannot run on the issues without fabrication
why can't she be truthful about the issues and her experience? The so called Tuzlagate was an example of a blunder. Someone who it trusted with the presidency of the United State cannot do this. Period!

11. She fucked up. I think her memory was playing tricks on her.
it happens. I just wish when things like that happened, it wasnt an opportunity. I wish it was more a case of "whoops, what the hell happened there?"
