All good politicians are story tellers. How much stuff do you think Reagan completely fabricated? Why do you think Trump is so entertaining?
Again, you're holding Clinton to a completely different standard.

Clinton denies ever story telling. EVER ....See the difference .
She is the one holding herself to a higher standard then Trump , not me .
That's why I hate politicians and I do not put them on a pedestal like you . Proof is in the pudding

No, she denies lying. There's a difference between misspeaking or a little sensationalism and an outright deception.
People say things that aren't true all the time, doesn't mean it's a lie.

I do a lot of speaking before groups and sensationalize and dramatize things all the time. It makes the message come through stronger and captures people's attention. Doesn't mean I'm dishonest.

It's a character flaw . One I don't like seeing in friends , one I won't tolerate from my children , one we have in the current President ( except he outright lies , often ) and one I don't want in the next one .

Unless you're pulling for Sanders then you'll be badly disappointed. The GOP field can't seem to get any facts straight and most are running campaigns fueled by dishonesty and dirty tricks.
You're honestly going to tell me you think Trump doesn't have this "character flaw?"

I think if it comes down to Trump and Hillary , which it looks like it will , you will see a lot of sensationalism . You're also going to see Hillary called out like never before . I almost feel bad for her going against some one with F U money and a large portion of the American people on his side .

Love it, a 25 year long industry dedicated to tearing the Clinton's down yet we've not seen anything yet. Right
I think under-appreciating her resilience and skills would be a big mistake. Trump can't respond to Hillary giving an insightful response on foreign policy, economics or domestic issues with a wedgie or wet willie during a debate.
Trump is all hat and no cattle and while many Americans are mad at the government his childish antics are really getting old.

Seriously?
Muslims cheering all over the place after 9/11; thousands and thousands... he saw it, remember?

For Cruz? Ask Ben Carson in Iowa, as Blue Cross in Texas, and a few others I can't recall from memory...

If it's not true Spence, I guess you could water it down by calling it a falsehood, but it's still not true and a lie.
How many outriggers do you have out.
