<< we never even saw crooked Donald's taxed>>
You simply could not make a worse argument on Clinton's behalf. It is the argument that Trump used against her. She should have released the texts of the speeches because  withholding them allowed her enemies to argue that there was an equivalence between the speeches and the tax returns. There is no equivalence: the tax returns are infinitely more important; but she allowed the perception of "having something to hide" to settle into the public mind. It's one thing for her adversaries to feed that perception, but truly unfortunate when her supporters do.
Like you, I absolutely "wish we were in her capable hands now." I think she would have been a good president, potentially a great one. However, she was not always a great candidate. I'm not saying that she would  be president had she released the speeches; I'm only saying it was a mistake not to release them.
I don't want to re-litigate this with you. This is my last post on this subject.
