Hillary Clinton early Monday faced questioning of her use of a private email while secretary of State as she hopes to pull out a win in Iowa, which on Monday becomes the first state to cast votes.
The Democratic presidential candidate also touted her bipartisan efforts in the Senate and work with both political parties while secretary of State to cast herself as a uniter.
"I know how you get things done. I am a progressive who wants to make progress and actually produce real results in people's lives. That's what I'm offering," Clinton said on CNN's "New Day."
"I'm not over-promising," Clinton continued, taking an implicit shot at Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), who she is hoping to fend off when supporters go to caucus Monday night in the Hawkeye State.
"I'm laying out the plans that I have, I'm asking people to look at them and I'm asking people to hold me accountable, because I want to get back to working together, to try to unite this country," she said.
Clinton maintained an upbeat tone during the CNN appearance, part of several media interviews Monday, saying she was proud of her supporters in the state and urging viewers to caucus for her.
The former secretary of State continued to insist that there is nothing new regarding her use of a private email server days after the State Department declared that 22 of the emails were "top secret" and would not be released to the public.
Clinton pivoted Monday to compare the latest update regarding her emails to the GOP-led House investigation into her handling of the terrorist attacks in Benghazi, Libya.
"Just a lot of innuendo, a lot of attacks," Clinton said.
We are holding her accountable, that’s why there is an FBI investigation going on regarding her espionage
Are you serious?
We've been trying to hold you accountable for over 10 years, you dumb twit.
You damned Clintons think you are above the law...us common folks should roll over and say uh, huh...yeah, okay?
If I had my way, instead of going to the polls to vote against you (regardless of who your opponent may be), I'd be planning a trip to view you thru the jail bars or to urinate on your burial spot.
Just go away!
Yet she can't name a single accomplishment in either role.
She means put more millions in her accounts.
OK, Madam Benghazi, let's start with a TRUTHFUL explanation of your "homebrew" email server that caused 'exceptionally grave damage' to our national security, placing every man, woman and child in danger just so it would be convenient to you. We'll get to abandoning American under fire for political expedience later.
Telling one and all right up front that she is a Marxist (Progressive is the coded word for Marxist) and she will continue the Obama fundamental change of the country into a European socialist hell hole.
Lindsey Graham called her a national treasure. The Uniparty loves her.
Stalinists lie. ALWAYS
Oh I think the FBI is going to help you out with this Hillary.
The teflon bitch wants to be held accountable- when our enemies attack she should be the first hung off a light pole followed by her despicable husband the teflon Bill
The FBI investigation is going to go nowhere.
Assume there was some evidence of wrongdoing, and we do not know that at this point, and the FBI recommended some sort of legal action. The Justice Department would need to review and study the FBI recommendations and this will take months.
Remember how long the Keystone study took?
There is no way this matter will result in any criminal charges, let alone any before the election.
Mark my words, the only political damage that will result from all of this is going to accrue to the stupid and feckless GOPe.
Was she holding a length of rope when she said it?
She wants “her” people to hold her accountable, not the FBI or the DoJ. She wants absolution in her court of public opinion, not an agency doing its duty to uphold the law, or a justice system that is forced to do its duty without political influence.
Still another lie... She cannot help herself.
“Just please don’t throw me into the briar patch.”
Oh man, I scrolled too fast and didn’t see that you beat me to it. Kudos.
Doesn't the FBI have enough now to proceed with a recommendation? What possible good will come from waiting for the last 7000 emails?
