Hillary will release her speeches if REPUBLICANS do?

[SusanCalvin]

(Just saw this again on a news clip.)

We are in the primaries right now....

If those transcripts cannot stand up against her Democratic opponent, perhaps she should not be the nominee.

For the record, I don't think there's anything damning in them. Just whom she spoke to, how glowingly she no doubt spoke of them, and what she got paid. Um, well, then, maybe I misspoke there.....

Going to bed now, will see reception in AM, or maybe PM after work, depending on how fast I'm able to drag myself out of bed. I'm generally pretty slow.... ;->

1. She's a snake. She made the claims about what she said in her speeches

She should make them public so everyone can see she wasn't making up another "sniper" story

[dchill]

2. So she LIED when she said she'd look into it.

[grasswire]

3. that was her FIRST position.

Then (when O'Malley was still in the race) she said she would release them if the others did. Then she said that EVERYONE including Republicans had to do so.

14. I Don't Think Hillary Understands That The Repugs...

don't really care about her speeches as they will not be voting for her anyway. As a Democrat though her speeches are important to us. We Dems need to make a decision - Hillary or Bernie. How can one vote for Hillary if we don't know whether she is telling us one thing and Goldman Sachs something completely different.

Without that question being answered by her by seeing the transcripts it's hard to justify voting for her over Bernie because there is a lingering doubt. This means she will lose votes to Bernie.

If she has nothing to hide she should release those transcripts. Not releasing those transcripts kind of says that she has something to hide. It only reaffirms the perception people have of her as not being trustworthy.

4. She looked into it. And decided not to.

Oh, I GOTTA go to bed!!

5. Maybe Bernie would be interested in releasing transcripts of his conversations

At the fund raisers with firms like Goldman Sachs and other negotiations he has with Lockheed Martin.

[phleshdef]

7. I doubt he would have a problem with it

But you already know what he had to say.

[Thinkingabout]

10. Maybe he should have offered this first.

8. This what you're looking for?

Hillary Clinton refuses to release her paid speech transcripts she gave to Goldman Sachs unless other candidates do so. Bernie Sanders just called her bluff and released his paid speeches. Even though he made less than $2,000 in speaking fees, and donated it all to charity, he still decided to release it anyway.

11. In for the fact he is prohibited from taking pay for his speeches, he has had discussions with

lobbyists and dealings with others, release those conversations.

[liberal_at_heart]

6. and people wonder why her favorability numbers are so low.

[closeupready]

9. It's NOT FAIR to expect her to keep her promises!!

Dammit! Why does everyone here keep singling her out??? If Republicans don't have to keep their promises, NOBODY should have to!

[Motown_Johnny]

12. She started that a couple weeks ago.

What she seems unable to grasp is that at some point there will be only 1 (R) left. If he never gave speeches or does release transcripts she is painted into a corner.

[winter is coming]

13. Yeah. Apparently, she's taking her cues from what Republicans are willing to do. n/t

[silvershadow]

15. She won't even do it then. She's just buying more time than she is due. Release the hounds. nt

[SusanCalvin]

16. I've always been of the opinion that she will never release them. nt

[AzDar]

17. Quite the LEADER, no?
