As with much of the product generated by the anti-Clinton scandal mill, the merit of the allegations doesn’t really matter. What’s important is that the constant stream of accusations further the notion that Clinton is corrupt.

Sometimes they are sinister (she murdered Vince Foster!), sometimes they are nonsensical (she ordered the military not to rescue those Americans in Benghazi!), sometimes they are legitimate (her boneheaded use of a private email server as Secretary of State) and sometimes they are silly (her staff sold a T-shirt to a foreigner!). It doesn’t matter. The constant production of scandal accusations – facilitated by Clinton’s reflexive secrecy – is successful. A poll by Quinnipiac University released last week found that the top three words voters associate with Clinton are “liar,” “dishonest,” and “untrustworthy.”
