Another Clinton Scandal....Stormgate

To add to the list of outrages, there is now word that there might be a big storm in Iowa on causus day.

The thinking is that Bernie will benefit if there is a large turnout, because many of his supporters have not caucused before, and a lower turnout will benefit Clinton.

So what does Hillary do? She arranges for a winter storm to depress turnout.

I'm shocked, shock at how vicious this campaigbn has become.




BTW, I'm a big Bernie supporter, and I don't believe a word of what I wrote above. Just joshing in a bipartisan way to lighten the mood a little bit. Everyone is getting so serious and tense.

And I support Clinton.

I agree that we seem to be taking ourselves a bit to seriously.

because of the enthusiasm gap, Bernie's supporters are willing to walk on hot coals to be at the caucus, while Hillary's will sit it out if there are 2 snow flakes.

I think the weather may be a Hillary supporter posing as a Sanders supporter in order to discredit snow.
