Hillary Clinton is a normal politician and the email server was a bullshit story. Its ridiculous that liberals continue to stomach that story but, for example, Obama's pay-to-play is just "everyone does that". The previous secretaries of state did the exact same thing with their emails she did. And its just kind of amazing to watch people I know who read wikileaks, were happy about the democratic leaks, and who criticized Obama for his response to Snowden then turn around and get pissed about Hillary's emails. Like wow, didn't know you cared so much about our nations' secrets getting out. Didn't realize that what American voters REALLY care about is the finer points of internal email policy.
Don't get me wrong, I think she's scummy, but she's typically scummy and extremely qualified. If she hadn't run against Bernie Sanders I would have had few qualms voting for her. She did run against Bernie and I do dislike her, but I don't pretend that's anything more than it is. What happened with the Bengazi and email server stories was very typical in every way but one. I'm not surprised that Republicans got their own base, the base that bought Obama was a muslim, to drink their kool aid. But somehow, when they're going after Hillary and no other time, they can make moderates and the democratic base drink the Fox News kool aid.
Edit: Seriously, this just boggles my mind. If CCN ran a story like "white house email system uses obsolete password encryption" the world would have shrugged. But that's what this is, it wasn't even a procedure Hillary invented, she was handling emails mostly the way her predecessor did. Fox news was constantly implying that she had the private email server so she could delete evidence in the event of a trial, but here's the thing. That's not what the trial was about, the trial was about her potentially compromising information and the final verdict (from the FBI director that cost her the election on purpose, mind you) was that she was "extremely careless." Which reflects badly on her, but like... seriously? Any other day of the week, you couldn't make American voters care about this if you tried. Our politicians get away with so many blatantly bad things, why is this one bureaucratic procedure the line in the sand? And then answer is, I don't have an answer. Hell, Bernie Sanders himself said he doesn't care about Hillary's "damn emails".
