When the FBI finally clears Clinton of any wrong doing

I wonder how each side is going to react when they have been using this to clearly assassinate her character.

She voluntarily talked to the FBI today which shows a great sign of leadership in my opinion.

People are making conspiracy theories on bill clinton and Loretta lynch meeting.

I think personally this issue is going to be laid to rest after the interview.

To push their non scandals someone needs to do some evaluating their priorities. They use cognitive dissonance to sell their non stories, lies and non scandals, we can not be fooled into believing them, kick them and their talking points to the curb.

People will talk about how it will definitely turn out to be her downfall.

There will be expensive investigations -ten or eleven of them.

When it turns out to be nothing, Republicans and many Democrats (some of them right here) will complain that it really WAS something, and it was really, really awful, but Clinton has so much power she was able to quash it. Because she makes the lightning and roils the seas, and stuff like that.

She's Hillary. It's what they do to her.

Well, I like what we were doing in the other topic.

CT is going to run rampant when she starts campaigning with PBO.

In all seriousness, all she has to do is SNEEZE I think, and someone will say she conspired to give someone else a damn cold.

I wish this would make a difference but let's face it - the Clintons are a lightening rod for right wingers. You could pile up a stack of investigations clearing the Clintons ten feet tall and the right wingers will all wink and nod and their hate will burn just that much hotter.

I doubt much is going to change.

I can't wait to have positive, hopeful Democrats back! (ToS enforced!)

These "everything sucks, sky-is-falling 'progressives' " have been a real psychic drain the last year and a half.
