Let us be honest hereā¦this is one of those āscandalsā which most people arenāt going to understand and that there really isnāt a way to make it more than a curiosity. Most people donāt really care if Clinton was using the right email address or not. The Republicans have spent billions of dollars trying to find a scandal to use against the Democrats that was needed elsewhere.
Quite frankly, theyāve been desperately trying to create a Democratic version of Watergate since Clinton was elected the first time and it hasnāt worked. Why? Most of this stuff is either highly technical (like this āscandalā) or just does not break the law (Lewinsky). Honestly, the GOP keep doing this and they keep hurting our reputation over seas.
I was in England when the Lewinsky scandal came to an end and the Brits I met there thought that the GOP was made up of a bunch of Puritanical morons.
My, my the normally lethargic press corps was a wriggling mass of mumbles and grumbles that clearly elevated HRC into the Prince William level much less that of a presidential candidateā¦another right wing backfire.
Why even ABCās normally indolent pet Bush attack dog Jon Karl was shipped to NYC from the White House press corps to offer 20 or 30 smear-based, fevered questionsā¦heavens!
Butā¦ butā¦ butā¦ BENGHAZI!!! Itās all proven by her use of a personal email account!!! Canāt you fools see?!! They should open up another Congressional Hearing on Benghazi and Clintonās use of personal email!
Besides, the only way Republicans were able to get Bill was a hackneyed scheme of digging into his personal life, then trying to either humiliate himself or lie about it. If they canāt go fishing in that deep of a pond, then babyās going to starve.
