"Guccifer 2.0" (The Russian Government) released screenshots of a supposed Clinton Foundation hack, with folders conveniently titled "Emails" and "Pay to Play."

https://guccifer2.wordpress.com/2016/10/04/clinton-foundation/

The main allegation seems to be some insinuation that the Clintons struck a deal to suck up TARP funds, because various Democratic donors donated from bank accounts held at Banks that received TARP funds?

This looks weak as gently caress but I'm sure people will go apeshit over it, per usual.

I dunno. I've heard a lot of people my parents' age (~50-55) use it as an example of how the whole system is rigged and bad. Something to the effect of "they won't keep gangbangers in jail, and now they won't even prosecute corrupt cops!" Like they're so close, too. :saddowns:

I think it'd be pretty obvious if the vote counts were tampered with, and if anything would just end up in an even more embarrassing eventual defeat for the GOP. I wouldn't worry about it.

Even if there's obvious vote tampering, there isn't really anything that can be done about it. There are exactly two things that can be done about suspicious voting totals: recount or Supreme Court case. Not all voting machines have a paper trail, and an 8-member court will likely refuse to involve themselves in the election. Other than a recount, there is no mechanism for "correcting" vote totals that are obviously wrong, nor is there any mechanism for offsetting the effects of blatant violations of election law. If the most Democratic-leaning precinct in Florida gives Trump 125% of the vote with no paper trail for a recount, then that's probably going to stand, and if it doesn't then the precinct's votes will be thrown out altogether (which still helps Trump). That's why election-related misconduct is so common - even if you're caught, the courts can't go back and undo the effects of it and can't meddle with the results, so you can violate election laws freely as long as you're willing to pay a token fine and cut it out when a judge tells you to. I'm not Arzying about it, but dismissing it altogether is dumb; most voting machines in this country are less secure than the average public library computer, and their physical and network security is controlled by the 78-year-old county clerk who still uses Windows 95.

Have we even seen Trump doing any lighter campaign stuff, like reading to schoolkids and whatnot? Anything that, I don't know, makes him seem like a human being?

Remember when a baby started crying in the audience at one of his rallies and he talked for a bit about how it was okay and he loves babies and it was great that someone brought their baby...and then he said "that was a joke", told her to get out, and complained about how no one wants to hear a baby crying?

This is just embarrassing. Do people really think the clinton foundation is using loving excel spreadsheets to store all their info? That alone makes this just stupid. Add in the fact that all of those folders are empty, and this is just loving hilarious how these people will believe anything that fulfills their fantasy.

Also, he would have had to hack a user account and gain access to the server via RDP or something similar. Most hacks come in the form of SQL leaks, or repository dumps. THe picture is of somone logged into a server via the GUI and browsing a folder. That's not how hackers operate. Years of lovely CSI and TV-hacking have made people really gullible.

Ohio unfortunately looks pretty comfortably Trump unless Hillary's GOTV tilts things.
Ohio (and Iowa) are going the way of Missouri.

To illustrate how quickly things change, Obama was the first person to win the presidency without winning Missouri since Eisenhower's second term, and it hadn't happened before that since McKinley beat William Jennings Bryan in 1900. Missouri only voted against the winner twice in more than a century, and now it's solid red.

Ohio, because it's population patterns are becoming increasingly out of line with the rest of the nation. Although Ohio's population contains roughly the national average of African-American voters, their population is only 3.1% Hispanic, compared to 16.3% of the U.S. as a whole and 1.7% Asian-American, compared to 4.8% of the U.S. as a whole.

It'll be competitive this election, but only because of the GOTV difference. I think Hillary will win it in a squeaker, but it won't be called until after she's won the election, like Obama and Florida in 2012.

Also, it wouldn't surprise me at all to see Hillary not contest the state seriously in 2020. It's moving away from the Democrat coalition demographically, and it isn't necessary for a Democrat to win there anymore.
