    I like to undersell and over deliver.

    Do you accept that, given the choice between sickly Hillary, who used a private server for email to avoid FOI laws and is possibly on her death bed, and healthy-as-a-horse Donald Trump, who is going to try to pull us out of NATO, enact tariffs, build a wall over the Rio Grande, and blow up Iranian boats who fly the bird at us .... many, many sane people will choose Hillary and all her flaws?

    Trump spoke about religious liberty, and the freaking Johnson Ammendment, the other day.

    But, yeah, his campaign is devoid of issues, especially in contrast to Hillary Clinton's.

    Clinton Loses Balance at 9/11 Memorial
    By AINARA TIEFENTHÄLER | Sep. 11, 2016 | 0:55
    Hillary Clinton briefly appeared unsteady on Sunday during a ceremony marking the 15th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attack. Her physician later said Mrs. Clinton is being treated for pneumonia and dehydration.

    Letting preachers say "Go vote for this guy" from the pulpit* is a White House winning idea?

    * - As opposed to the current "wink, wink, nudge, nudge" method of endorsing candidates

    As expected they are now playing the she wasn't herself excuse:

    "The announcement late Sunday that she had been put on antibiotics Friday morning also cast something of a new light on her demeanor and gaffe later that day.

    She had sounded subdued, as if trying to preserve her voice, during her news conference late Friday afternoon, which followed a meeting with a bipartisan group of national security experts about combating the Islamic State.

    And at a fund-raiser that night, Mrs. Clinton, better known for more carefully calibrated phrasings, loosely suggested that half of Mr. Trump’s supporters fell into what she called a “basket of deplorables” — bigots of one kind or another, essentially. (She apologized on Saturday for painting with such a broad brush, but on Monday Mr. Trump seized on the remark in a speech and a new ad suggesting Mrs. Clinton was “viciously demonizing hard-working people.”)

    Trump is demonizing actual hard-working people by assuming Clinton was talking about them when she pointed out the whackadoo crew supporting him.

    According to el Rushbo, this is a common trick used by people who have an in-demand video and hope to sell it "from a different angle."

    It's a new revenue stream for the right wing grift machine. If churches can endorse, they can donate, too.

    She testified for 11 hours in front of a Congressional committee.

    Oh, there I go again correcting you on your inaccuracies.
