Clinton rallies base, slams 'fact-free' GOP midterm campaign, warns of investigations

(snip)
Clinton assailed Republican claims about Democratic economic policies as "fact-free," calling this year's midterm elections, "the most fact-free environment I've ever been in."

"We are coming back. You do not want to put us at risk," Clinton warned. "You gave (Republicans) 8 years to dig the hole. Now give us four years to prove we can take you where America needs to go."

Clinton also warned that should Republicans regain control of Congress, a newly-minted GOP majority would focus on launching a series of investigations, led by House Oversight and Government Reform ranking member Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.), aimed at taking down President Obama and Democratic leaders in Congress.

"These folks spent 140 hours investigating my Christmas card list," Clinton told the crowd.

That is the funniest thing I've heard so far in this election.
