Where The Hell Are Hillary's Wall Street TRANSCRIPTS?!?!

If she's not released them, then she doesn't really believe in carrying on Obama's LEGACY of transparency. Instead, she admits she's just a boot-licker of Wall Street. She should drop out now.

1. She did what any good politician would do...wait until it is no longer relevant.

I have two uncles who work on Wall Street, both have been to Hillary talks over the years, and I specifically asked them if she said anything indicating that she would support them as president. Turns out she talked to them long before the election started, and the talks were pretty generic. They don't think that there is much from the talks they heard that will come back to haunt her.

3. If that is the case, why hasn't she released them?

Because they don't matter? HA! That's despicable and deceitful if so. She needs to release them so the voters know what they are getting... oh right, a Wall Street boot licker.

there are plenty of Democrats on Wall Street-if she had said something ridiculous it would have leaked-this isn't like Dick Cheney meeting behind closed doors with Oil Executives. These are SPEECHES not closed negotiations

The ones that are carping about this the most are already in Camp Sanders; it is a complete non-issue for everyone else.

Why do you think Democratic turnout is at an all-time low. It's not because of anything Bernie is or isn't doing. It's because Hillary is a miserable candidate.

11. It is at an all-time low because Sanders' support base is largely ephemeral

I think your camp has been lured into thinking lots of pro-Bernie tweets and lots of pro-Bernie DU upvotes equates to lots of voters, when the reality is that it i a relatively small group who just talks. A lot.

8. All the Hillary Supporters (not many) saying it's a non-issue doesn't make it a non-issue

It's an issue and you better realize that before this election season is over.
