Who Cares?


Terry McAuliffe, current Governor of Virginia and a long-time Bill Clinton confidant and bag man, gave Dr. Jill McCabe's campaign, former candidate for the Virginia State Senate, a half million dollars and directed another $200K both from PACs he controlled to her. Other members of the Clinton crime family also gave well over $100 more to this same campaign ... see: New York Magazine Article ... almost half of all the money she raised ... $2 million for her campaign ... which she eventually thankfully lost.

Why is this important? Because Jill McCabe is the wife of Andrew McCabe who shortly thereafter became the second in command at the FBI ... and was in charge of investigating the Hellary Clinton e-mail scandal ... which eventually concluded that, although Clinton was "extremely careless," she was not to be indicted.

Can we say quid pro quo? Perhaps, using another, more familiar language ... a poorly disguised bribe?

But who cares? The American voter?

Afterward: As it happens, Hellary had raised money by speaking to the McAuliffe's PACs which in turn gave the money to McCabe's wife's campaign ... how convenient ... how very convenient.

Of Like Minds


One of the analogies about this election that I have been using in my conversations (and I thought in this blog ... but I can't seem to find it) is that November 8th is like a game of Russian Roulette. Picking Donald Trump is like loading the revolver with one bullet whereas the Clinton game requires all six bullets to be filled. Now, reading the Powerline Blog, I see that our favorite cartoonist, Michael Ramirez, has, independently come up with this same notion ... only he has put three bullets in the Trump gun and six for Hellary ... in a cartoon labeled "American Roulette".

Ramirez and I are clearly of like minds. Yes, voting for Trump is a risky gamble ... but picking Hellary is suicidal.

(On third thought, maybe my written analogy was as an old comment on the Diplomad blog?)
