It's critical to start by separating foolish and even potentially shady behavior from criminal. It should be clear to any objective observer that it was an enormous error for Clinton to use a homemade server for all of her emails while she was in a position that regularly handles and assesses the most sensitive of government secrets. She had admitted as much (although now she appears to be backtracking from that initial mea culpa).
It is also indisputable that it was neither a crime nor even a violation of State Department procedure for Clinton to have used personal email for government business at that time. Secretary of State Colin Powell, for example, used a personal email account from 2001 to 2005 in addition to his government account.
What makes this different, however, is that she created and maintained her own server in her home, and therefore controlled, all her emails, personal and professional.

I won't argue the point about Americans-in-name-only. I can only point out that the Clinton Foundation is worth near a billion dollars (reports I've seen). That's not too shabby for a couple of unprincipled grifters and a mutt.
Either the guy is ignorant of the law in which case he should be fired or he’s a participant in the cover-up in which case he should be jailed.
Tell that to General Petraeus.
Clinton love bunny.
Cute.
She shared classified information with a lobbyist named Sid Blumenthal, guilty.
This dip probably still thinks Petreus Betreayedus.
Tom DeLay was hounded out of office over “ethics charges” for far less.
In the end, it is the Justice Department’s and President Obama’s decision on how to proceed. If the FBI were to recommend an indictment, and that is still speculation at this point, the Justice Department would have to deliberate on how to proceed, and how long would this take?
How long did the Keystone study take?
Will a long Justice deliberation have any negative impact on Hillary’s chances? Can anyone say Lois Lerner? Does the public care? NO!
This whole matter, in the end, is going to result in blowback against the stupid, feckless GOPe.
He wants to stay alive and to protect his cat.
of course to arrive at this conclusion one must first be indoctrinated with the principle that Hillary can never do any thing wrong
ABC.
Not that George Stephanopolous would have any input on this.
Not at all.
The mere fact that they’re calling in all the usual idiots to parrot the line itself says just how worried they are..
This kind of reporting is why Trump is doing so well in the polls and why everyone hates the media. I am no Hillary fan, but if I thought no crime was committed I would say so because I’m a reasonable person. Clearly, Hillary Clinton Broke secrecy laws. Sorry Hillary, but in your effort to keep your stuff away from your political opponents and Congress, you broke several laws. It happens. The only question left is “are people like her above the law?” I’m watching and waiting to learn.
...if she is innocent, what is her alibi changing constantly...
1. Its just another thing to throw against the wall to see if it sticks.
2. I dont recall.
3. At this point, what does it matter?
4. We didnt do anything wrong
5. We didnt know we were doing anything wrong
6. You cant prove we knew we were doing anything wrong.
7. Theres no evidence of any wrongdoing.
8. Thats old news. It’s all been gone over in the last few weeks/ months/ years.
9. I would never do that.
10. Everybody does that.
11. Ah hah hah hahahahaha
12. It was all a mistake.
It is probably better for some to appear to be a doofus for Hillary than to end up with a one-way ticket to Fort Macy Park.
It’s also foolish to drive drunk and kill your passengers.
It’s called violating the law.
I didn’t file my taxes for three years. I plead “foolish”.
He is an idiot that knows nothing about sevurity
Well she sure didn’t buy those 4 mansions on the salary she earned from the WH!
What? Hillary did this? Another MSM cover-up to protect the Clintons.
