4 things Hillary Clinton got wrong in her latest statement about those emails

"In the wake of a scathing inspector general's report regarding her exclusive use of a private email server while serving as secretary of state, Hillary Clinton didn't say much. But what she did offer up — in an interview with Univision's Maria Elena Salinas in California — showed, yet again, that Clinton will stick to her story on her email server even if the increasingly indisputable facts get in the way.

Here's what Clinton told Salinas:

It’s the same story. Um, just like previous secretaries of state, I used a personal email. Many people did. It was not at all unprecedented. I have turned over all my emails. No one else can say that. I have been incredibly open about doing that. I will continue to be open. And it’s not an issue that is going to affect either the campaign or my presidency.
Now, a few bits of context."

Gore was living in that world for 8 years. Come to think of it, we all were.
