HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT

[HairOfTheDog]

But, one of the biggest fish on Paul Ryan's fryer is keeping congress filled with a Republican majority after the down ballot elections early next year, no matter which candidate wins the presidency.

Exactly and that's what he should be devoting his time and resources to rather than wasting more tax dollars. Hillary's case is over. The Republicans are not going to change anything with further investigation, they are grasping at straws.

When it comes to money, the Republicans are willing to devote an unlimited amount to nailing the Clinton's. This will only be one more unsuccessful investigation in a long line of many. In a sense I'm glad Paul Ryan is doing this, it will be further proof to the voting public that Democrats need to get the majority. Aha!

I think Paul Ryan is doing his job by devoting some of his time and resources (and possibly future tax dollars) to keeping Clinton's email server mess in the public eye.

Even without an indictment, Comey's assessment painted Hillary Clinton as extremely careless with government information and some of what he said contradicted Clinton's previous public assertions. That won't likely turn her supporters against her, just like the lack of indictment didn't likely motivate any anti-Hillary folks to drop the matter.

But, in swing states and among Independent and Undecided voters (which are the groups Clinton and Trump are competing for), the GOP extending the email server rhetoric for months on end could hurt Clinton and the Dems in the presidential and congressional elections. Or, as you envision, it could make the majority of those up-for-grab voters see the GOP as conspiracy theorists who are making a mountain out of a molehill and wasting more tax payer money, thus driving them to vote Democratic. Hard to say.
