(60,949 posts)Email being a huge dominant story. She knew the emails had already been asked for before she left the state department. She knew they would continue to ask. She also knew she had not done anything wrong on anything they wanted email on.
If she had left all the work email at the State Department, they would have complied -probably in 2013. Neither Obama or Kerry had any interest in stonewalling and both wanted the investigation closed. The emails and HRC's last testifying would have been over at least by 2014.
Having not done that, she made things worse by not completely explaining everything honestly when it became an issue. Having the story change a few times -even as supporters here claimed it was not important - is something that almost guarantees the media tries to advance the story. It also makes her look quilty to more neutral people.
