Poll: Majority think Clinton acted unethically or illegally in emails
The question is if the American public will have the attention span...
A large majority of voters believe Hillary Clinton did something either unethical or illegal in her use of a private email system for government business, according to a new McClatchy-Marist Poll.

A total of 68 percent believe that what she did was wrong in one way or the other.

The biggest bloc, 40 percent, say she acted unethically, though legally. That includes large numbers of Democrats and independents.

The second biggest, 28 percent, believe she did something illegal.

The third, 27 percent, believe she did nothing wrong.

The results suggest that even as Clinton builds her lead for the Democratic presidential nomination over rival Bernie Sanders, a sizable number of voters have lingering questions about her behavior as secretary of state that would follow her through a general election campaign.

The ranks of those saying she acted unethically if legally includes a surprising number of voters of her own party or those not affiliated with any party. Forty percent of Democrats and 46 percent of independents say she did something unethical but not illegal.
Unethical is a congenital trait for her, like her serial lying

#2  "Majority think"
That right there is an untested hypothesis doomed to fail.

#3  The third, 27 percent, believe she did nothing wrong. That group will vote Democrat no matter what because the ends justify the means.

#4  Normally that image of Hillary so repulses me I don't look at it. But I noticed the button and it made me laugh.

#5  rjschwarz has it right. What's the % that will vote for her anyway?
Posted by: Warthog || 11/12/2015 16:11 Comments || Top||

#6  The 27% would vote for Charles Manson if he were running as a Democrat.

#7  The majority are not keen on gay marriage, Obamacare, ending the death penalty, etc. When has that stopped the ruling caste from getting what they want?

#8  rjschwarz has it right. What's the % that will vote for her anyway?

Free Shit trumps all.

Government
Colorado to vote on single payer health care plan for the entire state
Posted by: DarthVader || 11/12/2015 13:10 || Comments || Link || [5 views] Top|| File under:

#1  $25 billion, paid for with very high tax rates on businesses and people. Almost guaranteed to go past the original $25 billion price tag and punch a hole so massive in the state budget that you could pass Pluto through it.

If passed expect in 10 years to see the state so far in the red it is thinking bankruptcy, businesses fled and people moving away as fast as they can.

#2  Duuuuude, have another hit. Pfffffffffffttttt!!!
Posted by: Ebbang Uluque6305 || 11/12/2015 13:18 Comments || Top||

#3  So the Laficornia expats who fled to Colorado to escape the high taxes will now vote "yes" on this measure.

In a few years to escape the taxes they'll move to .. where? Let me know because I don't want to be in the same state as these folks.

#4  Fortunately it won't be New Mexico, not enough money and resources to steal. That's helped by their brethren Greenies who won't allow fracking in the state (but the Texans just across the border by meters are drilling and generating revenue). Economics of the Left is defined by their 'magic money tree' fantasy universe.

#5  That's good news for Vets in CO -- they won't have to suffer under the VA. Or will they? Let's have a two tier single payer system. Wait, where are all the taxpayers going?

Hm.

Maybe all the details haven't been worked out yet. Pass me the bong, will ya?

#6  It shouldn't surprise anyone the lengths people will go to avoid O-care.
Posted by: Therese Ebbanter7671 || 11/12/2015 15:26 Comments || Top||

#7  That's the ultimate goal of O-care from the beginning. It's impossible to believe that it would succeed. They planned for failure so the only out would be single payer
Posted by: Warthog || 11/12/2015 16:30 Comments || Top||

#8  won't take 10 years to fail

Vermont's single payer system passed the legislature in 2011 and by 2014 the State declared it a failure.

yes, that's right --- VERMONT
