Monday

The weather starts off chilly in the morning, then becomes warm and spring like by the afternoon.   I am conscious now that with the clocks going back at the weekend I need to be sure I go out, and do what I need to do, before it gets dark.   Going to Emmanuel doesn't count, it is a very short distance and along a main road.

The inquests into the Presidential Debate are still going on, it seems universally agreed that it was a debacle, and the candidates all had a cosy get together on Sunday and they have decided how it is going to be run in future, which I gather will be a lot more professionally.

One would think, looking at the supermarket tabloids, that Hilary Clinton is in trouble.........

 

 

But I doubt it.   A Democrat Senate, and especially a Democrat President , who would have to okay it, is not going to - I think the expression used here is -  "throw her under the bus".

 

And there isn't even anyone else standing in the wings ready to be a Presidential candidate.  There is of course, Bernie Sanders, but he is a socialist, and socialism doesn't have any traction in this country.  Maybe by the next election.

 

It has just been revealed that she warned the  Libyan President of the Benghazi attack.   But not - as we know - her ambassador.

 

The White House also told her not to blame the Benghazi attack on the offensive video about the Prophet because nobody in Libya, in the general public, would have seen the video.  They just don't have these things over there.  

 

There is a drip, drip, leakage of her e-mails, coming from someone in the FBI who are holding and investigating them.   If this carries on much longer I can foresee FBI resignations on the horizon.
