    I'm glad you are able to have confidence that the Russians didn't make an impact on the elections. I'm not, and while you can categorize me as an alarmist those who have maintained it's no big deal have consistently been wrong. Let's see what the investigation yields, if Trump doesn't shut it down, before commenting on the stupidity of being alarmed.

      I think you're getting a little defensive over the wrong issue here. I read Creekster's comment as being more about Hillary and her ongoing assertion that the reason she lost was "because Russia" and not the fact that she has issues that make her unappealing as a candidate.

        You don't understand. On this board, if say anything negative about Hillary or don't say anything negative about Trump, you are a Redhatter through and through and want the American experiment to meet its dismal end.

We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

            I'm not extolling HRC's virtues. I'm just commenting that I think the Russia thing is a huge deal, and we don't yet know the extent of the impact their meddling had, so let's not act as through it is irrational to be worried about it.

                As a lifelong Republican, I could make lots of negative observations about Hillary (the deleted emails among the more serious issues), but Trump is in office and she is not. Hannity and others who focus on Hillary and minimize the very serious problems we face with Trump in the Oval Office are ignorant, political hacks.

                  Hillary Clinton looks at everyone but herself as the reason she lost? What a bombshell!

                  Pretty funny in the aftermath of Trump intimidating and firing Comey to think Comey wanted Trump to win. I'm pretty sure Comey voted for HRC.

                            So her book is going to be titled "What Happened" Is that the best she can come up with? That's unimaginative and boring. Can someone please forward DDD's contact info to her. He was at least good at coming up with game thread titles. Maybe he can help...

                                Tell me you're kidding.

                                If she wants to know why she lost all she has to do is look at that choice.
                                PLesa excuse the tpyos.
