I fear that the decision not to attack Hillary on her rapist-defense scandal is a huge mistake. In her own words, Hillary defended a rapist "as a favor", presumably to someone in her law firm. She was not compelled to do it. Also, in her own words, she knew that the rapist and pedophile was guilty. She knew it!

At the next debate, Trump should look at Hillary and say, "Kathy Shelton. You know that name well, Hillary, because it's the name of a 12-year old girl who was brutally and violently raped by a pedophile monster. You voluntarily defended him in court and you later laughed about freeing him from jail early. You laughed about it, you boasted about it, and the secret tape of you admitting to what you did is available to everyone. Tonight, Kathy Shelton is sitting in the front row. She is 54 years old now, and she still suffers from the very violent rape that you defended. She was never able to have children. Do you have anything that you would like to say to Kathy, such as an apology for the very horrible miscarriage of justice that you orchestrated against her?"

In tape, Clinton characterized much needed young Sanders supporters, calls self 'center left, to the center

right'
Never autoplay videos

Hillary Clinton is back on the campaign trail locking arms with former Democratic rival Bernie Sanders to tout debt-free college education. But Clinton has privately distanced herself from such promises and other progressive ideals championed by Sanders, instead describing herself as a “center-left to the center-right” candidate, according to a recently released audiotape.

Clinton, the Democratic presidential nominee, made the comments in February, at a private fundraiser in northern Virginia. The audio tape was purportedly included in a Clinton campaign staffer’s email that was hacked, then given to The Washington Free Beacon, which reported the story Friday.

In the roughly 49-minute tape, Clinton suggests the 2016 presidential race has been divided into two camps: the far-right “populist, nationalist, xenophobic, discriminatory kind of approach” espoused by many Republican candidates and Sanders’ democratic-socialist vision that includes “free college, free healthcare” and “go as far as Scandinavia, whatever that is.”

“I am occupying from the center-left to the center-right,” continued Clinton, who warned about over-promising potential voters.

She also characterized disaffected young Americans -- particularly the many college students who joined the so-called Sanders’ political revolution -- as “living in their parents basement” and feeling their post-graduate jobs are “not at all what they envisioned for themselves. … They don’t see much of a future.”

“If you’re feeling like you’re consigned to being a barista … then the idea that maybe, just maybe, you could be part of a political revolution is pretty appealing," Clinton also says in the audio tape.

The release of the tape comes at a difficult time for Clinton, who continues to struggle to connect with young voters and secure their vote.

A Quinnipiac University poll released Sept. 14 shows 55 percent of likely voters 18 to 34 voting for Clinton, compared to 34 percent for Trump, compared to a poll released a month earlier by the university that showed Clinton with 64 percent, compared to 29 percent for Trump.

With about five weeks to go before Election Day, Clinton holds a slight, single-digit lead over Republican rival Donald Trump, according to most recent polls.

Clinton, in the tape, also seems to suggest that some young voters are naïve about politics and the working world, saying, “Some are new to politics completely. They’re children of the Great Recession.”

The Clinton campaign declined Saturday to respond directly to the story but pointed to tweets by Sanders’ spokesman Mike Casca, who called at least one of the stories about the tape “misleading” and “completely inaccurate.”

“She's clearly saying she gets why Bernie's supporters are frustrated,” Casca tweeted Friday night after a story by Politico.

Clinton said Wednesday at a rally with Sanders at the University of New Hampshire: “None of you have more at stake in this election than young Americans … Bernie and I are excited about what he can do together.”

Clinton said she wants a moratorium on repaying student debt and the debt to be “forgiven” for those who go into public or national service.
