The hillary case run by obama, lynch, comey, et al, is quite simple. The summer exoneration was to enable hillary to run an unimpeded campaign, and win.
The fall re-opening was to clear the FIB of being partisan, and was easy enough to do, like susan rice’s “by-the-book” inoculation letter on exiting the White House.
The assumption was that the beeste had it as good as won and now was the time to give some semblance of evenhandedness.
“The summer exoneration was to enable hillary to run an unimpeded campaign, and win.” Yes, and to keep her out of prison. If she was forced to step down, there was no way the party was going to win ... all the way down the ticket. She had to be “exonerated”.
The fall re-opening ... was because someone outside of Comey’s control gave them notice that HRC had a problem ... there was a computer with all sorts of stuff stuck w NY law enforcement. It took Comey about a month to figure out how to deal with that in order to keep HRC in the race. They sure read 10,000s of documents in record time to say there was nothing there and just days before the election.
