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

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

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

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

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

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
