The late famed Pulitzer Prize winning columnist, William Safire, called Hillary Clinton a congenital liar. (a condition from birth due to heredity or environmental aspects.).  This was back in Bill Clinton’s early years.  Nothing has changed. Change positions on issues to fit current conditions…no problem.  Talk with a Southern accent when speaking in the Southern States… fine and dandy…lie under oath while speaking to a Congressional Committee….a breeze.  Telling family members a video caused the deaths of four Americans from an attack at Benghazi….oh, why not.   That very night she told Chelsea and Egypt’s Prime Minister it was a direct Jihad attack.  Nothing about a video.  Shameless.
NBC/Wall Street poll says 27% think Hillary honest and straight forward.  53% say no. The rest?  Well you can guess how much they know about anything.
And yet, same poll, she would beat Donald Trump if the election was today. Dr. Carson would beat her by 10%….Rubio beats her by 5%…Cruz beats her by 3%.  Trump loses by 3%.  Why?  Because Trump would lose the vast majority of Hispanics  (ship them all back to re-enter if qualified…absolute nonsense.)  Black vote?  Forgetaboutit.  Women’s vote…no way.  Trumps fanatics are largely white males and a smattering of others.  Fortunately, in spite of what he says, Trumps numbers are fading or stagnant while Rubio is showing large gains.  Trump’s act is getting stale.  He should zero in on Hillary…
not his fellow nominees.  He is hurting them.
Back to Hillary.  She has the Democrat nomination except for one thing she can’t control.  The FBI investigation with Director Comey actively engaged.  Two solid sources have leaked to author/pundit, Monica Crowley, that 671 of Hillary’s emails contained classified material. Four emails are “extremely problematic.”  Two of those four reached the highest classified designation. And, one of those two contains satellite data about North Korea’s nuclear weapons program.  This document is an open and shut violation.  Clinton faces gross negligence of handling classified data.  And, obstruction of justice.
The FBI will bring those charges to the Attorney General of the U.S. Loretta Lynch.  It’s likely Obama will tell her what to do. Nothing. However, the charges made public will create havoc for Hillary.  Good chance it will cost her the election assuming Trump won’t be the nominee.  The Washington Post is all over this story.
The next Republican debate is Tuesday, Nov.10th on the Fox Business Network. Headlined by Neil Cavuto and others.  And if there is a more gorgeous questioner at Fox than Trish Regan, I’d like her to step forward.  Times are 5PM Central time for the “under card” and the main event set for 8PM Central time.  Unfortunately, fast gaining momentum, Chris Christie will
not be on the main event because his poll numbers were too low in the average of the polls taken. And yet one poll used did not have Christie listed in that poll.  His New Hampshire numbers are good and growing.  He’s competitive.  A former prosecutor turned
New Jersey Governor, Christie is smart, very fast on his feet and knows how and when to strike. He and Carly Fiorina would be Hillary’s worse nightmare.   Instead we get going no where Rand Paul.  He’s as dead in the water as Jeb Bush.
Always surprises in Iowa and New Hampshire….New Hampshire more important.  Here’s the latest New Hampshire poll numbers.
Trump..18%..Carson..15%..Rubio..9%..Christie, Kasich and Bush..8%.    Rand Paul at 3%.
A word about the new Speaker of the House Paul Ryan.  Easily the best choice.  Laying out legislation for ALL House members.  Ryan has unquestioned integrity, vision, tenacity and smart as they come.  Boehner, a good man, was not a public fighter and “out of gas.”
And keep this in mind.  Forget all the polls at this time.  They don’t win elections.  It is won by State by State primaries. Trump, the man with “the mouth that roars”  is no shoo in.  History shows New Hampshire is full of surprises.
Trump may get the surprise of his life.
