[quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele]If Hillary's campaign finance problem was that some contributors gave $3,000 when the limit is $2,700, you are right that it would warrant media coverage. Those amounts are normally Hillary's cab fare on the way to give a speech on Wall Street.[/quote]
I'm disappointed, Jeff. You should not stoop to this level.[/quote]
But he will, and he does. [/quote]
Are you guys serious? You think that failing to itemize the individual contributions of a single contributor while reporting the total is a huge scandal but collecting $275,000 for a single speech to Goldman Sachs is something that is beyond the pale to mention?[/quote]
I'm the first PP, who expressed disappointment.  I don't mind an open discussion about Clinton's paid speeches or her contributors (or any other candidate's for that matter).  What disappointed me is your snarky diversion from the discussion about Sanders.  For better or worse, I expect more from you.  You were making good points when you reviewed Sanders' filings and commented on what the documents say and don't say.  Where you lose me is the cheap shot.  I generally enjoy and agree with your take on political issues, in large part because you rarely take cheap shots.  So I'm surprised and disappointed here.[/quote]
He takes cheap shots to deflect criticism of Sanders. [/quote]

This whole thread is a cheap shot and a good metaphor for our corrupt political system in which selling out to those who wrecked our economy is no big deal but going over the spending limit by $50 is a huge violation. [/quote]
We forgot that everything the Sanders campaign does is automatically beyond reproach and that no questions or criticisms are tolerated here. [/quote]

Criticize all you want. Who is stopping you. Sure you would probably prefer to make vague ominously sounding allegations without rebuttal. Sorry, can't promise you that. [/quote]
