@MBB, I know that Trump would like to deflect attention and GOP Senators are only too happy to oblige, but Clinton, Lynch and even Comey are now just historical figures. Few Americans and even fewer Australians worshipped Clinton with religious fervour. Certainly, I'm not one of them. Her main virtue for me was that she wasn't Trump. If I waste any time thinking of what might have been, I regret that Obama wasn't able to run for a 3rd term.
Even though our recent coaches have inspired a lot of passionate debate, you see little appetite for continuing that debate. Interesting, though, that I'm now coaching a grandson of Pagan - he looks exactly like Pagan would have as a kid!
This is a classic case of whipping a dead horse. I wonder what the GOP will do without the Clinton bogeyman. I guess they're praying that Chelsea goes into politics ;D
Having said that, the "highly sensitive evidence" seems to be a Russian intelligence report which was likely a sham. Apparently, his own staff warned him he couldn't rely on it but he worried that if it had been made public it would paint the FBI in a poor light. The people referenced in the report were never approached by the FBI to verify or debunk the report and all now deny the assertions point blank. 'None of it makes much sense': Experts are baffled by Comey's use of a fake Russian document to skirt the DOJ, Business Insider Australia.
I can't understand why Comey allowed himself to be bum-rushed into holding his infamous press conference. Let's say his advice to Lynch ended up being that Clinton should be prosecuted. If she than declared that there would be no charges, I'm sure someone at the FBI would have leaked Comey's contrary advice and there would have been a furore. On the other hand, once he decided that there would be no prosecution, what would be the harm in Lynch declaring that the investigation was over and there would be no charges? It has me confused.
