Yet again we find ourselves with a revelation that the Clinton campaign is fudging on the trail. Shady donors, bullying a citizen at a forum, planting at a forum and now, apparently PADDING her supporter list in New Hampshire.
Since I have been working hard on bringing New Hampshire veterans to the fore, this "gaffe" I find particularly disturbing. Veterans and veterans issues are not to be trifled with for political gain. None of us will disagree that the phrase "Support Our Troops" conveys a deep sentiment of appreciation for veterans and the burden that they bear for our well being.
