My new thing is to tell them that Hillary isn’t hiding under their beds waiting to steal their children and take them to pizza parlors or Mars. ---

There are a lot of anti-McCaskill ads running in Missouri right now.

Some right-wingers hope Hillary runs again in 2020. They may well get their wish, and it’ll be bonanza time all over again. 😀 ---

They also push on the other side sometimes, just to keep things going. Yes, yes, yes, a thousand times yes. I suppose there must be equally divisive anti-Republicans stuff out there, but it’s not showing up in my feeds. > [@Shoeless](#): > > There are a lot of anti-McCaskill ads running in Missouri right now.

> [@John\_Mace](#): > > It works to fire up the base. As a political ploy, it makes sense. This. While I agree with the OP, liberals aren’t above it either. When I was living in San Jose I attended a town meeting held by my then-congressman [Don Edwards](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don_Edwards). This was three years after Reagan had left office but every time the crowd would get restive about something the Democrats had done, he’d figuratively open his briefcase, take out the Reagan voodoo doll, and shake it at them. Worked every time. Mind you, this is when George H W Bush was in office but his name was never brought up. Hell, it’s been nearly thirty since he left office and despite Donny Two-scoops being an incredible target I _still_ hear Reagan being grumbled about once in a while. Excoriating your opponents even after they’ve left office is part of every politician’s tool kit, right next to dodge blame for failure/take credit for success. ---

But, with Reagan, at least he actually was in office. There was actually something you might not like about what he did to show to everyone. With Clinton, we have nothing but this weird vague sense of not liking her and then pinning a bunch of stuff on her as an excuse. Every time I hear someone whining about Clinton, I point out that you can’t blame someone who never actually did anything. ---

Does anyone know if there is a master list of all the Hillary investigations? Not just “scandals”, like [Travelgate](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_House_travel_office_controversy), but investigations… like the 5 investigations which _lead_ from Travelgate. ---

As near as I could tell, the whole scandal from “Travelgate” was that the Clinton’s go rid of people who’d been doing the job under the (3) prior Republican administrations and replaced them with…_gasp_…Democrats. These days don’t they call that “draining the swamp”? ---

The difference here is HRC was never president. These other guys were and we can point to their policies and make a case that those policies are still causing problems today. By comparison what did HRC ever do to them? ---

Not just “scandals”, like [Travelgate](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_House_travel_office_controversy), but investigations… like the 5 investigations which _lead_ from Travelgate. There’s a much, \*much \*shorter list of investigations that \*found \*anything wrong, and the travel office thing wasn’t one of them. The list is shorter by far, in fact, than the list of ones that got repeated multiple times for the political purpose of saying she was under investigation. ---
