2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumWith the Big Banks, it's not what they gave to Hillary's campaign, it's what they gave to Hillary!
Goldman Sachs may have given $800,000 to her campaign, but they gave Hillary $675,000 directly in speaking fees!
Which is the bigger bribe? Probably the one that went right into her checking account.
Sorry, Hillary fans, but the Clintons *are* too close to the Big Banks to be fair and impartial.

Clinton will no longer attend an event in Boston scheduled for Friday that was to be hosted by Jonathan Lavine, managing director of Bain Capital affiliate Sankaty Advisors, sources close to the matter said.
The event has not been canceled but will now be held sometime after the New Hampshire primary, which takes place Feb. 9.
