We don't know what would have happened and, with respect, neither does Hillary Clinton. meadowlander Apr 2018 #19

We lambasted Comey at the time. I see no utility in lambasting him now. He's useful to us. DemocratSinceBirth Apr 2018 #20

Kingsofall dems, you are correct DemocratSinceBirth Apr 2018 #18

Republicans have a whole website devoted to smearing Comey oberliner Apr 2018 #21

It is not a smear when it is the truth lunamagica Apr 2018 #46

Comey getting fired has been the best thing for this country since Trump was selected Tatiana Apr 2018 #24

"assumed from media polling" was the mistake everyone made Tarc Apr 2018 #26

Yes. He is apparently so non-political his brain couldn't process that input. nt BootinUp Apr 2018 #30

What should Comey have done? califootman Apr 2018 #32

Not go public the way he did oberliner Apr 2018 #37

But he didn't go public. califootman Apr 2018 #41

What did Hillary mean by his "unusually public airing of the FBIs investigation" ? oberliner Apr 2018 #42

Possibly his pronouncement earlier that year at the "conclusion" of the investigation. califootman Apr 2018 #49

Thank you for this post, Oberliner. You are absolutrluy right lunamagica Apr 2018 #48

In an election that close, any number of factors could be held responsible. Garrett78 Apr 2018 #50

I do not believe Comey purposely sabotaged Hillary.. honest.abe Apr 2018 #51

That may be the case....if it is, he's stupid. Really? Rudolph Giuliani, a sycophant says Ninga Apr 2018 #93

Yeah, it was a dumb move and not well thought out. honest.abe Apr 2018 #103

Is the usage of "nauseous" versus "nauseated" an issue of grammar or semantics? John1956PA Apr 2018 #55

I would say it would be an issue of usage oberliner Apr 2018 #59

Yes. The term "semantic change" seems appropriate. John1956PA Apr 2018 #100

Comey's lying like a rug. A dirty one. By then the polls had Hortensis Apr 2018 #56

Well said oberliner Apr 2018 #58

Great post, Hortensis! Comey is a traitor. lunamagica Apr 2018 #79

We should not fall for the GOP Trap to gang up on Comey to limit his use as a witness...that is what Demsrule86 Apr 2018 #86

Yeah, fuck him ... him and McCabe did some shady shit during the election uponit7771 Apr 2018 #91

Comey caused Hillary to win the popular vote by 3 mil? LuckyCharms Apr 2018 #61

No, Hillary was responsible for her popular vote victory oberliner Apr 2018 #62

So Comey caused Hillary to lose a few tens of thousands LuckyCharms Apr 2018 #63

Lots of other factors came into play oberliner Apr 2018 #64

Come election day there was only 1 thing that those on the Left could do elocs Apr 2018 #68

1) She received more than three million votes. 2) James Comey will never be our friend lunamagica Apr 2018 #82

Don't be disingenuous because you know we do not elect our presidents by popular vote. elocs Apr 2018 #90

The way people are building Comey up, like he is some kind of superhero lunamagica Apr 2018 #92

Comey is just a piece of the picture that could bring down Trump elocs Apr 2018 #95

I'd be willing to bet Hillary places more value on his testimony and cooperation in the Russia probe bigtree Apr 2018 #69

bigtree, what do we gain by bashing Comey at this juncture ? DemocratSinceBirth Apr 2018 #76

Ideological consistency oberliner Apr 2018 #84

Demsrule86, I have a question. DemocratSinceBirth Apr 2018 #74

Trump benefits from both the GOP and the Democrats bashing Comey... Demsrule86 Apr 2018 #77

Screw the GOP oberliner Apr 2018 #81

Since the Russians already had their hands in the election, what actual impact did Comey have? HipChick Apr 2018 #80

HRC seems to think he had a substantial impact oberliner Apr 2018 #83

Maybe she needed that for her book... HipChick Apr 2018 #85

Comey is a deeply flawed man Maeve Apr 2018 #88

We will never be able to measure the effect Comey had on the vote. Orsino Apr 2018 #94

Comey contributed to HRC's loss but many other collective factors resulted democratisphere Apr 2018 #96

He would be damned either way, since not disclosing it could also influence the election IronLionZion Apr 2018 #98

I think we need to put away this "Comey disclosed it" bit, it isn't correct Tarc Apr 2018 #99

He sent a letter informing the Senate and House that he was reviewing additional emails oberliner Apr 2018 #101

Exactly..... vi5 Apr 2018 #102

Comey is a self-righteous prick radical noodle Apr 2018 #104

For whatever reason, the nothing burger of Hillary's emails was a dog whistle to her opponents LisaM Apr 2018 #106
