FBI director Comey contributed to Obama’s opponents in each of his elections: August 2008, $2,300 to John McCain ; 2012 ,$5000 ( the maximum )to Mitt Romney .Also $2,500 to Susan Brooks (Ind.), Brooks went on to win a House seat.
Nothing wrong with that of course but just possibly relevant as perspective re his role in the email controversy.
Possibly relevant as perspective re what I suggest are my several Dagblog comments that the security services "would classify a ham sandwich". In proposing which I've almost certainly overstated the relevance of my background , re my military service and years in the Defense Industry.
I understand the Hillary camp may feel "least said, soonest mended." Perhaps right. That's what campaign managers get paid for knowing. My non- professional gut feeling is that in this case , more is better.
Political nature abhors a vacuum and until reality somehow intrudes Hillary's many enemies will have license for dark speculations about those 103 classified emails:
o the location of our most powerful nuclear deterrent?
o the poison we're trying to slip into Putin's hot chocolate?
And her supporters , like me, will try to imply that half of the classified communiction were performance evaluations of State Dept underlings and the balance hurtful gossip about Merkel , Mugabe ,Abe etc.
Great guy that Comey no doubt is , as well as enthusiastic Republican ( although he said that he is not a registered one this year) my recommendation is that Hillary shouldn't rely on the kindness of (Republican) strangers. I think she should request that someone with the required clearance ( Bobby Inman?) review the naughty 103 and release of as much information as possible about them. ,
edited for grammar etc

Talking Points Memo received the Polk Award for uncovering the attorney firing scandal, which was meant as payback for US attorneys not doing what they were told by Cheney/Rove/Gonzalez.
