EMAILS: Clinton Allies ‘Believe The Obama Forces' Committed Voter Fraud In '08
[Daily Caller] Two attorneys with close ties to the Clinton family believe then-Sen. Barack Obama’s 2008 campaign "flooded" the caucuses with "ineligible voters," according to leaked emails.

Emails hacked from Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton’s campaign manager John Podesta cites two attorneys and "old friends of the Clintons," James Lyons and Michael Driver, tasked with "caucus protection, election protection and to raise hard $" for the 2016 Colorado caucus.

Apparently, Lyons and Driver didn’t want a repeat of 2008 when, they believe, the Obama campaign "flooded the caucuses with ineligible voters," according to the email chain released by WikiLeaks. It’s unclear if they are only talking about the Colorado caucus or those in other states.

"High importance," Podesta wrote to campaign staffers in a May 2015 email.

#1  I wonder if Obama's backers (as distinct from the moron himself) had compromising evidence against Clintons and used it to restrain Clintons from using the staff they had on Obama?
Posted by: g(r)omgoru || 10/17/2016 7:08 Comments || Top||

#2  Of course the Clintons have not engaged in voter fraud--they are as clean as the freshly-driven snow, eh (sarc)?
Posted by: JohnQC || 10/17/2016 8:22 Comments || Top||

#3  Total rubbish! The polls were well guarded in 2008 and 2012. So-called 'voter fraud' and 'voter intimidation' are a popular myths invented by 'the man.'
Posted by: Besoeker || 10/17/2016 8:32 Comments || Top||

#4  Obama said he would heal the planet and slow the rise of the oceans 8 years ago. It is not difficult to imagine that he raised the dead as well.

If Bernie Sanders did not sell out to the devil, he might have something to say about the voter fraud and suppression in the primaries. However, I understand there are lawsuits brought by his very PO'd supporters. Also check with the DNC hacked files which indicate Bernie never had a chance in the first place. Of course, Bernie might have been a stalking horse from the beginning. Had to have a debate to showcase the queen, right?

#5  Wouldn't have mattered. Folks knew Obama had issues and they didn't care. Folks know Hillary is a criminal and they don't care. Folks know Trump is a vulgarian and they don't care.

When people love their candidate they are not blind to such things, they just factor them as less important.

#6  Maybe it's the choosing between the evil of two lesser in this election, i.e. voting for the candidate who hurts you the least. I don't know that people are so outraged about Trump's vulgarity--mostly the usual suspects--Dems, Rinos, establishment politicians.
Posted by: JohnQC || 10/17/2016 10:55 Comments || Top||

#7  What's to choose? One thing nearly everyone (88%?) agrees on is their dislike for Congress. Only one candidate offers any hope at all of causing some sort of change in D.C., but somehow, most of the 'nearly everyone' doesn't see that.
Posted by: Bobby || 10/17/2016 12:41 Comments || Top||

#8  (88%?) agrees on is their dislike for Congress. It's that high? What's the disdain level for the MSM. Left-wing college professors? Journalism schools? The left? Hillary? ISIS? Liars?
Posted by: JohnQC || 10/17/2016 14:33 Comments || Top||

#9  Besoeker, the emails are about the primary caucus, your picture is from the actual election. There is no reason both couldn't be accurate.

#10  "What's the disdain level for the MSM. Left-wing college professors? Journalism schools? The left? Hillary? ISIS? Liars?"

You're repeating yourself, #8 John. Over and over and over again . . . .
Posted by: Barbara || 10/17/2016 15:59 Comments || Top||

#11  Of course. Why should people be denied the right to vote merely because they are dead.
Posted by: Grins Snese4215 || 10/17/2016 16:57 Comments || Top||

#12  ...blazing a new 'civil rights' movement!

[well if you tax the dead why can't they vote?]

An Attempted Hillary Email Coverup?
A senior State Department official repeatedly pressed the FBI to change the classification of emails stored on Hillary Clinton's private server, according to FBI interview summaries set to be released in the coming days. Patrick Kennedy, the undersecretary of state for management, discussed providing additional overseas slots for the FBI in exchange for revisions to classifications of the sensitive emails.
But..but..groping..

#1  Conspiracy to commit...

Obstruction of justice...

Comey is a criminal.

#2  In days past, only the "originating agency" was authorized to downgrade or declassify documents.
Posted by: Besoeker || 10/17/2016 4:41 Comments || Top||

#3  Mr. Hayes, you are one funny guy. ATTEMPTED email cover up. If this weren't so tragic, I'd be laughing.

#4  [Paul Ryan] Statement on New Clinton FBI Investigation Documents
Posted by: Vast Right Wing Conspiracy || 10/17/2016 12:40 Comments || Top||

#5  Only words if not accompanied by a call for an Independent Prosecutor.
Posted by: Besoeker || 10/17/2016 12:45 Comments || Top||

#6  Another good reason to vote for Trump; there might be a chance of getting a special prosecutor to clean up some of the mess.
