Number one concern---the Republican's will use this against her.

(3,040 posts)... use the carelessness comment as an attack against Hillary in the GE? That line will be used by the right as an attempt to push Hillary's untrustworthy meme?
Don't get me wrong, I am glad she wasn't indicted, but that comment will be used ruthlessly against her -- that is the republican way.

(49,389 posts)She'll dismiss any email related questions put to her by the MSM or her detractors after she's the official nominee.
Fringe elements may continue to keep the issue on life support but it'll be DOA by Election Day.

(62,276 posts)The only two things we found out new was she had several physical servers (upgrades to hardware or whatever), and that her attorney's deleted mail by doing a header search.

(62,276 posts)Given that they actually got in to the Pentagon, for instance. And since we know only 8 email chains were top secret, the information those 8 instances can be mitigated.

(15,438 posts)Concern trolls are flooding M$M now, giving Trump a pass on the Federal lawsuit actually filed against him by one of his victims.
Why is there a massive blackout on all M$M about this lawsuit?

(12,504 posts)that way Trump can keep using the same talking points over and over and keep inspiring his RW flat heads with false info. heaven help the RNC should their electorate ever become factually informed.
BlueCaliDem
(15,438 posts)to be (and act like) "RW flat heads" because it's "traditional". I doubt anyone could dissuade them from swallowing RW b.s. - ever. Our hope for the GOP is for the younger generation to see the forest for the trees because grandma, grandpa, mom, and dad will never do that.
These people have access to the interwebs just like we do (their nasty posts and remarks are proof of that). They have access to other cable news outlets that isn't Fox "News", and access to simple broadcast television. If they really wanted to get the truth, they'd do their due diligence to look for it instead of heading to Democratic blogs and websites and vids on YouTube that Democrats upload to, not read or listen to the information provided, and then post those nasty, ugly, inane remarks on those sites. I don't feel that there's any reason any longer to excuse them as "victims of propaganda", because they simply are not.

(15,429 posts)Everything they post has an identical post on Freak Repuking, too. They are saying EXACTLY the same shit as the wingnuts, proving that Jackass Laughables is a wingnut site!

(6,115 posts)Comey did not "clear" Clinton. He confirmed nearly all the details that have been previously discussed, plus provided additional details not previously public. Comey was scathing of her behavior; she was saved from prosecution because of the near impossibility of proving intent in this case. A big difference between "cleared" and "not indicted".

The FBI, by ending this now before the convention has given Clinton a big gift.

Ineeda
(3,626 posts)supposed Dems are hysterical and 'crushed', touting Trump as a viable, reasonable alternative. They'd rather support an insane, stupid, narcissistic megalomaniac than their arch enemy. Because they were rooting for an indictment, my theory is that they hoped that with charges brought against her she'd withdraw, either voluntarily or otherwise, and their god could slip right into the nomination. (They're even calling the president 'Benedict Arnold'.)
