So how do you explain the current Japanese high suicide rate? Can't blame it on guns. They're not samurai or kamikazes.

59% of Registered Voters View Hillary Clinton Unfavorably September 1, 2016 Daniel Greenfield The best thing Trump has going for him is Democrats are running the Wicked Witch against him. Truly a strychnine vs arsenic election. This is bad news for Hillary. Really, really bad news. Among all adults, 56 percent now see Clinton unfavorably, up 6 percentage points in three weeks; 63 percent say the same about Trump. Among registered voters, moreover, they’re essentially even – 59 percent rate Clinton unfavorably, vs. 60 percent for Trump. This is the opposite of what the media narrative was projecting. Instead of an inevitable ascend, Hillary actually began to fall. The shift erases a post-convention gain for Clinton, whose favorability rating advanced from 42 percent in July to 48 percent in early August before falling back to 41 percent in this poll, The bounce has bounced. Notably among groups, Clinton’s popularity among women has flipped from 54-43 percent favorable-unfavorable last month (+11 points favorable); to 45-52 percent now (-7); it’s the first time in a year that most women have seen her unfavorably. Clinton’s rating also has flipped among those with post-graduate degrees, from 60-39 percent in in early August to 47-51 percent now. She’s now back to about where she was among post-grads in July. She’s gone from about an even split among moderates, 50-48 percent favorable-unfavorable, to 41-56 percent now. Among liberals she’s dropped from 76 to 63 percent favorable. And among nonwhites she’s fallen from 73 to 62 percent favorable, largely due to a 16-point drop, to 55 percent, among Hispanics. So she's cratering once again with her base. Everyone outside a core is once again disliking her. She's doing badly with the most liberal demographics. Clinton couldn’t get much less popular among Republicans – 88 percent see her unfavorably. But she’s lost 8 points of favorability among independents (to 31 percent) So much for Republicans for Hillary. frontpagemag

Hillary Deleted Subpoenaed Emails Related to Benghazi Terror Attack Evidence accrues that Shrillary belongs in a federal penitentiary: The State Department says about 30 emails that may be related to the 2012 attack on U.S. compounds in Benghazi, Libya, are among the thousands of Hillary Clinton emails recovered during the FBI’s recently closed investigation into her use of a private server. That’s not the Freedom Caucus. That’s the Democrats’ own State Department admitting this. Government lawyers told U.S. District Court Judge Amit P. Mehta Tuesday that an undetermined number of the emails among the 30 were not included in the 55,000 pages previously provided by Clinton. But… but… she gave her word that she turned over everything government-related! Gasps The Right Scoop, I’m sure the government will hold the Democratic Party nominee for president to account for deleting classified emails that dealt specifically with a terrorist attack against Americans in Libya, Americans that even worked for the government, four of which died in the attack. Oh wait, the FBI has already said Hillary shouldn’t be charged for anything. WHAT A FARCE! The Benghazi emails were subpoenaed by Congress on March 4, 2015. It appears she had deleted them the previous December. However, the State Department had asked her to turn over her work-related correspondence on October 28, 2014. At the very least this strongly suggests that she willfully mishandled classified information, and that she perjured herself to cover it. Even a half-serious attempt at justice would likely place her behind bars. Yet she will be our next president. moonbattery

A record number of Americans now dislike Hillary Clinton By Aaron Blake The Fix August 31 A Washington Post/ABC News poll from the end of August shows the lowest favorability Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton has ever had. But Republican rival Donald Trump's numbers aren't great either. A poll from the end of August shows the lowest favorability Hillary Clinton has ever had. But Donald Trump's numbers aren't great either. (Sarah Parnass/The Washington Post) Hillary Clinton hit her stride after the Democratic National Convention, riding to a double-digit lead over Donald Trump in some national and swing-state polls — her highest of the year. As of today, though, Americans' views of her just hit a record low. A new Washington Post-ABC News poll shows 41 percent of Americans have a favorable impression of Clinton, while 56 percent have an unfavorable one. That's the worst image Clinton has had in her quarter-century in national public life. Her previous low favorable rating this year was in July, when it was 42 percent, lower than any mark in historical Post-ABC polls except a few points in the 1990s when a large share of the public had no opinion of her. Her previous high for unfavorable views was in June, when 55 percent disliked Clinton. Hillary Clinton's image hits a new low............. ................ Trump, of course, has long been the more unpopular of the two presidential nominees, and he remains so; 35 percent of Americans have a favorable impression of him, compared to 63 percent unfavorable. But if you look just at registered voters, the new poll actually shows Clinton's image is about as bad as Trump's, with 38 percent having a favorable impression and 59 percent unfavorable, compared to a 37/60 split for Trump. Clinton's image among registered voters................... ... is now on-par with Trump's.............. Clinton's numbers serve as a reminder that Trump's unpopularity isn't prohibitive, largely because Americans — and specifically registered voters — don't much like Clinton either. If it weren't for Trump, in fact, Clinton would be the most unpopular major-party presidential nominee in modern American history. Perhaps most notably, Clinton's image has declined significantly from just a month ago. After the Democratic convention, Americans were about evenly split — 48 percent favorable and 50 percent unfavorable. Interestingly, Clinton's numbers appear to have dropped since that early August poll mostly in groups that have been very supportive of her: Her favorable rating among women dropped from 54 percent to just 45 percent. Among Hispanics, it went from 71 percent to 55 percent. Among liberals, it went from 76 percent to 63 percent. It's not clear quite what might have caused Clinton to fall further than ever before. It's likely that she simply got an extended bounce after the Democratic convention that has finally faded. It's also possible that adverse headlines last week about the Clinton Foundation and thousands of newly discovered emails from the private email server Clinton used as secretary of state reinforced the reasons views of her had been worsening prior to the July conventions .........
