First came the Wikileaks bombshells about pay for play corruption and how the Clinton foundation was used to enrich Bill Clinton by a whopping $116 Million dollars. Next came the announcement of the huge premium and deductible increases in Obamacare. And the the topper of them all: not just a bombshell but a nuclear bombshell about the FBI reopening their investigation after discovering 450,000 emails on Huma Abedin's laptop that she shared with her pervert husband Anthony Weiner. Hillary's drop in the polls appears to have become a free-fall and the Democrats are in full blown panic mode.
How hilarious is it to see all the wrist wringing whining, righteous indignation and loud condemnation by political hacks and obstructionists like Harry Reid, Elijah Cummings and Nancy Pelosi of FBI Director James Comey - whom they had effusively praised when he bowed to political pressure and refused to recommend that Hillary be indicted despite overwhelming evidence against her and her long string of lies.
An example is Harry Reid claiming that Comey had violated the Hatch Act, a claim now being repeated by other desperate Democrats. That would be the same Reid who has repeatedly told blatant lies on the Senate floor - such as his false claims that Mitt Romney didn't pay any income taxes.
How satisfying is it to see something tilt the election towards Donald Trump after virtually every aspect of the election - from the media to the State Department, Justice Department and the rest of the Obama Administration - had been completely tilted against Trump?
Hillary and other Democrats were already dropping in the polls from the weight of the Wikileaks revelations, as well as the Project Veritas tapes of DNC operatives hiring thugs to incite violence at Trump rallies and discussing massive voter fraud and the Obamacare premium increases. In the ABC national poll, Hillary had dropped 11 points in a week - and that was BEFORE the FBI announcement.
Likewise we had already seen cracks in the stone wall the in-the-tank-for-Hillary. Both the anti-Trump Washington Post and NYTimes have been running front page stories, and even lead stories, about Hillary's corruption. Now we are seeing the publication of calls for Hillary to step aside in the Boston Globe. And yesterday we saw the stunning announcement that Democrat and former Clinton pollster and adviser Doug Schoen was withdrawing his support for Hillary.
The FBI announcement could well be a game changer. One poll has found that 34% of Hillary supporters are npw less likely to vote for her as a result of the FBI reopening their investigation into Hillary. In the end, voters may decide that they are not ready to yet another Clinton Constitutional crises and years of scandals and investigations like the last time a Clinton was in the White House.
Regardless of whether Comey was right or wrong in making the announcement, the fact is that Hillary has only herself to blame for her unprecedented step of setting up a vulnerable private email server and placing her own corrupt self interests ahead of national security. Jim Comey did not tell Hillary to set up a private server and he did not tell Huma Abedin to fail to turn over all of her emails and lie about it any more than he told Anthony Weiner to send sexually explicit messages to underage girls.
That is what makes Hillary's calculated political move -her indignant demands for full disclosure from Comey - so laughable. She and other Democrats knows full well that Comey is prohibited from making such a disclosure. The fact is that the very last thing Hillary Clinton wants to see is full disclosure. Preventing disclosure was the reason she set up the server in the first place and she knows that truly FULL disclosure would end her campaign and likely send her to prison.
There is something else we should not lose sight of amidst all the hubbub over the FBI announcement: Wikileaks has more bombshells to release, likely the biggest bombshells of all. Consider that so far, they have yet to release any emails from Hillary. Keep a close eye on what happens over the next week. Assange has promised that there will be information this week which is enough to send Hillary to jail.
How quickly times change. Only a couple of weeks ago, the Democrats were prematurely celebrating a landslide victory for Hillary and taking over the Senate. Now they can only wring their hands and watch it all slip away.
