So the first big use of Hillary's emails is to examine her Benghazi response - surprise surprise. Apparently she dodged the bullet by not using the word "spontaneous", even though Susan Rice made it clear that that initial assessment was still being evaluated. Not to worry - nuance is easily squashed in DC.

May Republicans have haunting nightmares of "Benghazi" to the end of their days, in much the way that "Whitewater" combined with "acquitted" must still burn. Again, if we had sane government and real oversight, I might care about Hillary's server - otherwise I see it as adult precaution, whatever the law/exec order-of-the-day is. (no one seemed to care about those pesky laws when it came to eavesdropping on citizens or torturing people - but email? aghast.)

Thanks, PP. I was tired of bringing points up that were either ignored or deflected by nonsequiturs. I felt like I was talking to a teenager. I'm done, but I appreciate your chiming in. My point was only this: If you are the President and you say words that are not true and which cause your country to go to war, and thousands of people die, that should be on you. If you are Secretary of State and some work doesn't get done by people many layers removed from you, whose job it is to fulfill record-keeping requirements (the government thrives on rules, after all); the only way this is is an issue is via partisanship. Alas, the GOP is far better at this than the Dems. I don't see changes coming, either.

How about when republicans bring up BENGHAZI, IRS email-gate, we just fire back, "We're not going to play the "blame game" and not respond any further? It sure worked for KARL Rove.

Rip away.

You've got that framing down, buddy - it's not the crime, it's the coverup!!!

Forget abetting trillion dollar Wall Street crimes and the sticking us with another half trillion dollars in wars over the last 6 years or widening NSA eavesdropping and cracking down on whistle blowers or participating in a war to overthrow a leader without Congressional approval - this dame might help Republicans get elected because she has a rogue mail server!!!

Perhaps you haven't read a newspaper in the last decade, but half the government programs were illegal and then Congress either looked away or codified the illegality to protect both Bush and Obama plus telcos plus various NSA/CIA/FBI/Blackwater contractors/etc.

In short, you're trying to scare us with what Hillary might do in the face of obscene acts that someone already did. I'm thoroughly #unimpressed.

Oh whatevers. In 2008 we were told that Obama would promote women's issues better than HIllary. People will say most anything however tangentially related to reality.

If you want to debate her economic viewpoint, write a column on it. This innuendo-laden comment tied to a fairly meaningless email faux scandal is just shit mongering like we've gotten so accustomed to.

Like I said, the bar's higher - "hey, Hillary's all for union busting in Arkansas!" oh wait, Obama already helped with that, people don't care.

You're right the email episode doesn't go to her neo-liberal economic record. But she does have such a record.

vast number of voters don't see this as an issue so it shouldn't change the difficulty in electing Hillary.

Equivocal? Ambiguous?

Debatable, but not with someone so blind as you.

In your desperation you'll listen and trust only those who agree with you

Polls...you trust polls?

Voters in the Red States have nothing good to say about Hillary or the Democrats.

So go ahead, coronate Hillary and then wonder why Congress and the Presidency becomes controlled by Republicans,.leading to a Republican judiciary.

Bengazi is not going away, despite the cover ups and others trolling insults.
