Never mind. Without prosecution from the justice department and a grand jury, it won't happen. The administration will circle the wagons and nothing will happen to Hillary. I'm sorry, but if anyone else had handled classified information the way she did during a time where the Chinese and Russians were hacking us like crazy, they'd be watching the Presidential election from a jail cell. Or at least from home with an ankle bracelet. This kind of thing is why people are snuggling up to the non-establishment candidates. People are tired or politicians doing what they do and getting away with it. Anyway, yeah, probably nothing will come of this.
It will be interesting to watch. I don't see the 0bama Justice Department indicting her for any reason. But if the FBI is ready to indict and the Justice Dept. refuses to take any action or even send it to a Grand Jury, how will people react?
"Have you seen The Kardashian's new condo in Costa Rica?"
That's how.
Probably. Sadly, if it wasn't for skulls, many people's brains would be leaking out of their ears. Not to worry though, they weren't using them anyway.
That's doubtful. The Clintons seem to be adept at weaseling their way out of scandals. Plus the general public, for the most part, seems to be pretty freaking clueless.
That said, I look forward to the day when she gets too cocky, and gets the hammer dropped on her head.
Admittedly, I don't like Mrs. Clinton and she falls under the category of anybody but Hillary but, she does deserve a fair trial, I haven't seen the evidence. The question is, will she even be charged with a crime?

My Uncle Frank was a staunch Conservative and voted straight Republican until the day he died in Chicago. Since then he has voted Democrat. Shrug

A fair trial before the election or primaries end would be nice. I have no idea if that is possible.

There is no doubt in my mind the investigation by DOJ will take it's time and most likely won't go after her even if evidence exists she did commit a crime. That should tell you how much confidence I have in this administration and it's appointees.
If convicted, her supporters will say she was not given a fair trial, I also fully expect O to give her a pardon so she can continue his legacy.

There will be no follow thru by DOJ. She may be ruined by the court of public opinion but the current White House occupant will not push DOJ to do anything. Hillary has dirt on him for sure, maybe his real COB, maybe his college transcripts. She's protected and he cannot move on her as much as he despises the Clintons.
If you've seen The Godfather Part II, obummer is Senator Geary, the dead girl in his bed is his college records (or some other dirt he doesn't want published) and the whorehouse is run by the Clinton crime family.
Interested to hear why Obama was meeting secretly with Bernie Sanders today. Is it to tell him to back off because he won't support Bernie for President? Or is it to tell him to ramp it up because the indictment of Hillary is inevitable and she may have to withdraw her bid?
My feelings are she should be in prison. What she has done the whole time she was in office is break the law. That said, there are those out there in large numbers that believe her, like Obuma, is a God that cannont do a wrong. We'll just have to see how shes doing in a month after some states weigh in with votes. Im starting to think someone just might be able to sneak in thru as an Independent. Im still for Trump myself. Im even with him in his decision to tell Fox to go to hell and not do tomorrows debate. He dont need Fox.
Just read a poll that states Hillary is considered dishonest by 64% of Democrats. Sounds pretty bad until you think about it.
36% STILL think she's being honest.
A couple of my former liberal wife's friends have said in public, on Facebook, that they would rather eat broken glass than vote for a wicked Republican.
I'm cruising the 'net right now looking for ground glass milkshake recipes.
in a repeat of campaigns past, Hillary's events are having to turn away people at speaking events due to occupancy restrictions limits of 250. That is at least the case at a bowling alley where she spoke recently.
In contrast, once again, her opponent is speaking to 20,000 at recent speaking events.....

optics, optics, optics.........
Nifty strategy actually. Speak at small events with very restricted occupancies and you can make claims that "they had to turn people away" or "they had a packed house." They just leave out the bit where the place could only hold 250 people.

The Clinton's are like a bad rash, and nobody would like to see Hillary busted more than me, but IMHO she will be our next POTUS.
If you boil this down to basics, Hillary knew what she was doing was wrong, and in violation, but she did it anyway because she doesn't feel rules apply to her. She doesn't give a damn about us, only herself, and her convenience.
If you want another Obama in office, she'd be your choice.
I certainly hope it's over for her, it certainly would be cause for celebration !!!
I hope that a Democrat does not get elected as President, so justice can proceed. If another Democrat gets in, I think she will get away. To bring charges to soon could be risky, because the potential for this to dissappear is highly likely.
I expect that the process will be dragged out until after the election, then the argument will be proffered, that we should not prosecute a sitting president over "something so trivial". She, and those behind her are pure evil.
I hope that an independent gets elected. The one running on the dem ticket.
Can you name someone who calls themselves an independent? If running on the Independent ticket makes one an Independent, why doesn't running on the Democrat ticket make one a Democrat? Bernie has never hidden his views and in his own words he's a Socialist (or Democratic Socialist, if you prefer). I can't recall him calling himself an Independent beyond running on that ticket - just like he's running on the Democrat ticket now.
I know you think people only see the word "socialist" and discount him because of that, but you're doing the exact same thing - repeatedly concentrating on the word "independent" in the hopes that people will like him because of that word. Really, if people are going to support him or not, they should do so based on his positions, not what label he calls himself or others call him. It's like people arguing over whether Obama is a Muslim or Christian. It doesn't matter. What matters are his actions and his platform.

You must be referring to the candidate that claims to be a "Democratic Socialist" but doesn't have the honesty or integrity to actually RUN with that label, or actually run as a candidate of the DSA, ( http://www.dsausa.org/ ) or the SPUSA, ( http://socialistparty-usa.n...ratic-socialism.html ).
You must be referring to the candidate that knows that if he is HONEST, he will NEVER come close to being elected by a majority of the American people, including those who see that the word "Democratic" attached to *Socialist*, is like applying perfume to a fresh steaming dog turd to try to convince people that it really isn't a turd?
You must be referring to the candidate that the Democrat party has embraced with open arms, thereby demonstrating it's own close allegiance with good old fashioned Marxist socialism?
Is that the so-called "independent" candidate you reference?

He should call himself a democratic capitalist socialist. He's not anti capitalism. He just recognizes the danger of an unregulated capitalism gone wild. Greed can do that. Socialism can be corrupted too. There are the obvious instances of that and we all know them.
Hillary has made the statement that the private server was done for her own convenience. I can't seem to grasp how shopping for, purchasing, setting up the server and modifying emails can be called convenient. At this point, since she refuses to give a credible reason or thought process to having a private server, I am strongly wondering if she was pressured or paid off to make information more easily accessible to ( fill in the blank ).

Hillary was not working for the US government (or we the people) as Sec of State. She was working for the Clinton foundation. Bill goes to some foreign country and gives a speech and lo and behold, that same foreign country gets something in return from hillary's State dept. Quid Pro Quo. Bill gets a fat speaking fee and said state gets something from hillary, be it a trade deal or uranium or who knows what else. These people are not your common everyday crooks, they are world class thieves. What was convenient for her was that using a private server keeps her emails shielded from any pain in the ass bureaucrats with any semblance of their Constitutional duty. And it lets her erase whatever she deems dangerous to her political career except she didn't do such a good job erasing things.
So you're recommending still *more* perfume on the dog turd.
Predictable and hilarious since you posit two opposing ideologies for the title of your so-called "independent" candidate.
capitalism and socialism don't have to be opposing. I happen to think that we have a pretty good system where they compliment each other. The rest of your post is rude and I won't respond to it.

He, and you, can call him whatever you want. It's his platform and actions that matter. His history is one of wanting government to solve every problem. To be sure some problems need government solutions, but a government solution should be the last option, not the first.
I respect your chosen candidate, but you should at least call him by what he calls himself. And I'll be honest, between him and Hillary I would much prefer he were the Democrat candidate.
I hope you get your wish! Not that long ago everybody was saying that he didn't stand a chance. The momentum is on his side. He's surging and Hillary's sinking. Maybe he'll fizzle out but that's what's happening now.

I know it looks bad for her but........Clintons.
I think she was promised the Job and they play for keeps.
