Why Can’t Hillary Clinton Find A Good Answer On Goldman Sachs? Maybe There Isn’t One.

Stop a random person on the street, ask them to describe Hillary Clinton's biggest problem as a candidate, and a list that is almost certain to include the following will emerge.

*Her emails
*Her husband and/or the content of her many defenses
thereof
*The millions in speaking fees she collected from Wall Street
firms

And despite the predictability of all of these issues, she often responds to questions and critiques of them in precisely the wrong way.

Many times, it seems that Clinton makes them worse -- even far worse. Clinton has, since almost the start of her 2016 presidential campaign, demonstrated a remarkable capacity to escalate rather than effectively address or resolve any question, critique or challenge if the matter at issue is about her.

On Thursday night, during the final Democratic debate before the New Hampshire primary, Clinton managed to give a series of responses to questions about those multi-hundred-thousand-dollar Wall Street speaking fees which were so muddled, so non-specific and defensive that Clinton's speeches and the money she made from them appear to be one of the stories out of the debate that will fill this weekend's headlines.

3. Sometimes the chosen path turns into the maze of the Minotaur

I suspect the truth is that aligning with Wall St financiers is a successful and popular choice among New Dems, ever since Rahm directed campaign fund raising for Bill.

She did -all- the -right- things that should have made her unbeatable, and without too much warning, that alignment to money is very unpopular among democratic and left leaning voters. They've become the beast in the maze.

No truthful explanation guarantees voters will accept and forgive what is now unpopular. That's a hard place; she has to face the beast.
