I’m worried about Hillary Clinton. No, I’ve not started drinking the Clinton Kool-Aid. I’m concerned about how this mysterious illness is going to affect the presidential race.

For more than a week, the media has been consumed with spin about Hillary’s fainting spell. How sick is she? What’s up with the cough? Is she contagious? Why did she lie about her health?

Do these questions move voters away from her? Probably not.

This latest episode in the Clinton saga has two possible ramifications in this presidential race.

First, it lowers Hillary’s expectations for the debate. As someone who has been on the public stage debating for decades, the former first lady, former U.S. senator and former secretary of state is expected to perform well against Trump, a novice debater. However, now that she has been under the weather, everyone is wondering if Hillary can make it through the entire debate. Her expected level of performance has been completely erased. She doesn’t have to pummel Trump to be considered the winner by the biased liberal media. All Hillary has to do is get through the hour and half without collapsing.

You’re probably thinking that couldn’t possibly happen. Really? We’re talking about Hillary, who won the New Hampshire primary eight years ago by crying. Furthermore, as Massachusetts residents we have seen this lower expectation performance be accepted by the voters. In his twilight, Ted Kennedy was not lighting the world on fire. Voters were impressed when he could form a full sentence.

The national media would never let that happen! Right? There’s a reason they call CNN the Clinton News Network. This brings me to the second ramification of her illness. That video finally exposed the media for being only Clinton cheerleaders.

Before the video, according to the mainstream media, you were a right-wing extremist for suggesting she was ill. After the visual of the video, the media has no credibility. If there was a poll on whether or not the public believed the news media, it would be at an all-time low.

What’s the end result? While the media will desperately protect her on all fronts for the rest of the campaign, no voter is going to accept their spin. We were told that her illness was like looking for Bigfoot. Well, it turns out this Sasquatch is real.

So maybe voters will now realize that Benghazi, travelgate, jeopardizing national security via her emails and all the other scandals are true — every single nasty detail.
