Clinton lead over Trump narrows in new poll
Democrat Hillary Clinton's lead over Republican Donald Trump has narrowed to five percentage points, a new USA TODAY/Suffolk University Poll finds, in a presidential election that has a majority of voters feeling fearful. Two months ago she led Trump by 11 points in the same survey. Sixty-one percent reported feeling alarmed about the election, while only 23% said they are excited. Ref. USAToday.
Well of course Hillary is not being charged but if it were you or I you could be sure that we would be charged and put in prison until we are ready to retire. Of course the Clinton camp is all overjoyed.

FBI Director James Comey on Thursday defended his decision not to recommend prosecution of Hillary Clinton over classified information found on her private email server.
During tense questioning on Capitol Hill, Comey told lawmakers he doesn’t believe Clinton lied about the server to the FBI or that she broke the law, although he later recited facts that contradicted her public statements.
Republican lawmakers called on the FBI to launch a new investigation into whether Clinton lied under oath about the controversial email server. Ref. CNN.
Hillary isn't getting away that easily. The State Dept. Is going to start their own investigation. Obviously someone knows the FBI is being overly lenient on Hillary and that whole email server scandal! I agree with Raving, if it were us we would be hanged!
