Virtually no one was sitting around simply waiting for the announcement to determine if they would or would not vote for her. Like all elections this will be built on the issues and not whether Hillary Clinton forget to use a frigging VPN tunnel between the State Department and her server. It's not enough for DJ Trump to tell people why they should not vote for Hillary Clinton. He needs to tell people why people should vote for him. So far he is not doing that at all. And any chance he has to make gains with her he keeps blowing with his dumb comments.
Before the Bill Clinton Impeachment mess, I used to vote for Republicans. I actually used to vote for the person I thought was best and I often voted for incumbents when I wasn't sure (so taxpayers would be on the hook for fewer pensions) even if that person was Republican.

All that changed with the Impeachment. Now, I pretty much only vote for Democrats. A republican would have to walk on water before I would vote for them. Why? Because the Republicans do nothing but hold witch hunts. Over and over again, that's all they do. I hope Trump makes the whole party fall apart because it's rotten at its core.

Without that objection, hearing viewers would never have known the locale on the photo was classified.
I think they should investigate that Benghazi committee. Was it really a partisan witch hunt that cost a lot of money? Let's ask for all of their work under the FOIA. Let's see if anyone is using a non.gov e-mail address.

Would not be any WITCH HUNTS, if the Democrats would not pull the crap they do. If you have to ask, you live on another planet.


The lies and dishonesty, happen so frequently, that most just accept it.


Hillary only cares about Hillary, and is a dummy at that. The worse Secretary of State par none. And a very bad liar!

I'm not the only one who feels like I do.

I also happen to live in California. Have you noticed how the Democrat party has grown while the Republican party is shrinking? Perhaps you should tell your fellow Republicans that what they are doing isn't working and they should stop with the witch hunts. Maybe some of us would go back to voting for the occasional Republican.

Would not be any witch hunts, if the Democrats were on the up and up. And they are not. Glad you live in California, the State that most people I know are now leaving.


Sorry to disagree but I see the Party increasing, because most people are sick and tired of the same old crap time and time and time again, from the establishment from both party's. People are sick of the double standards any normal person would be don't ya think.

Your tale is EXACTLY the same as mine. I voted for Reagan TWICE, but after the GOP witch hunt against Bill Clinton I decided I wouldn't vote Republican ever again. By and large I've stuck to that. The only exception I've ever made to that is a GOP prosecutor up in Seattle a number of years back who had - by his actions - proven that he was fair and apolitical.

I'm not a Democrat but I vote across the board Democratic - and this latest witch hunt is a great reminder WHY. It's clear the GOP has not changed in the slightest - except perhaps to get even worse. Hopefully this time around Trump will tear the party apart and new a different party will arise in it's ashes.

It's pretty common for folks in Congress to use private e-mail but they've made themselves immune to prosecution. They're a bunch of two-faced baboons.

So your okay with a sitting U.S. President cheating on his wife and using the Oval Office to play hide the cigar with his mistress, and then lying to Congress about it?

This is why many believe the Democrat party to be morally bankrupt.

Clinton deserved the impeachment for perjuring himself and his wife has now purjured herself as well. A marriage made in hell. What a class(less) act.

Congress had NO business ASKING ABOUT IT.
That was between HIM and HIS WIFE.

I don't pay taxes so that crooked politicians - who pretty much ALL have had affairs - can spend the money political witch hunts.
Heck, at the time the Whitewater investigations were going on - Newt Gingrich (who was House Speaker) was having an affair while his wife was in the hospital battling cancer. Talk about pot calling the kettle black!

There's an old joke - "If all the Congressmen and Senators were laid end to end... it wouldn't surprise ANYONE." Pretty much all politicians have affairs.

She was fully aware of ALL of the Emails she sent & received that were classified marked or not that should not have been handled the way that they were.
