They will be too busy celebrating the FIRST WOMAN EVER TO BE NOMINATED FOR PRESIDENT! Surely.

I wonder if it's coincidence, timing, or, is it stage management?

Probably would have waited until late Friday but with the DNC over then they probably decided to do it now and hope it's forgotten by then. They can count on the MSM to hide it pretty well this way.

The MSM is really eatin' the DNC's ass. The ABC News convention promo looks like a Hillary commercial to me.

It's almost comical. And google is doing its job too. Try doing a google search on "presidential candidates" and see what comes up. Then try doing a google image search of "crippled america" (Trump's latest book) and see what comes up. It's just right in-your-face.

Edit: Apparently google was embarassed and fixed the "presidential candidates" search since Fox News did a story on it this morning. It was showing just Hillary, Bernie, and the Green Party candidate.

They've tried to jam Dinesh D'Souza's movie "Hillary's America," in limited theaters now, too.

I watched a little last night. The difference in coverage between the two conventions is absolutely staggering.

I have no problems with oh, say, Carly Fiorina. It's not about gender for me, but about qualifications for office, sound leadership ability, morals and personal integrity.

I just don't see that out of Hillary.

not surprised.

I saw many people crying the other night. Perhaps they are the best $50/night actors.

I was crying too, but for a different reason.

Carly rose through the ranks at Lucent by using Enron style "mark to market" accounting shenanigans, then went on to decimate HP with a horrific Compaq merger that everyone else, including the family of the HP founders knew was a mistake. Carly got hers, though, so there's that.

I wouldn't want Carly managing a school bake sale, much less the country.

I feel the same way. As far as CEO's go, she's pretty much the poster child of what I consider to be unsuccessful.

It is absolutely insane how much spin the average American (as in those who don't research anything beyond what gets put on the TV between their favorite shows) is getting.

I don't understand how about 99% of them can call themselves "journalists" with a straight face.

I have no problem with a woman being president.
My problem is the lying, pandering, and cover ups with the present demoncratic candidate running.
One that leaves a trail of bodies behind her, then asks "What does it matter?"

That's my problem.
