Folks you know I wish Bernie was the nominee but you're kidding yourselves if you don't think hackers could have found something in the emails of someone in his orbit that would have been embarrassing, or, more to the point, that the MSM wouldn't have run with whatever it was.

Would this hypothetical discovery have cost him the election? I hope not! I hope this Hunter thing doesn't either. It's frankly ridiculous that anyone could conceivably lose against an incumbent with Trump's record, but we live in a fake democracy, so.

Anyway this is nothing against BernieWorld or any particular person in it, I'm just saying, trust me, whoever you are and whoever your circle is, someone in it has something embarrassing in their emails.

IMO one of the more straightforward lessons of 2016 is that there needs to be a lot of vigilance in how the media handles hacked email-based oppo dumps. The DNC hacks had their intended effect but they were a novelty. There's no excuse for getting similarly played this time.
