Comey knew that by going public hed be damned but concluded the alternative option. Suppressing the information until after Nov. 8th would be even worse. Of course, its important to note the emails may NOT materially change the findings of the original investigation. There might be nothing new in any of them.
On the other hand, they might contain some of the tens of thousands emails that have mysteriously gone missing from the server.
And even if they don't, Huma still must answer whether her discredited and damaged husband - who was not even a lowly Clinton staffer - potentially had access to the private server. Nobody knows....
He made it clear he didnt know what was in the emails yet, but that they appear to be pertinent to the original investigation. That is self-evidently true.
If the metadata indicates thousands of the new emails flowed to and from Clintons private server, and were written or received by her top aide, then of course they are pertinent and of course they must be investigated.
This is not partisan politics at play, as the Democrats are screaming, this is perfectly normal and reasonable police work.

First, Huma Abedin for not informing the FBI about this laptop during the original investigation. She apparently claims she didnt know any of her emails were on it. Really? Well how the hell did they get there then?
Ms Abedin has very serious questions to answer here and if she has deliberately suppressed materially relevant evidence from the FBI then she could face very serious CRIMINAL questions.
Second, former president Bill Clinton for that ridiculous stunt he pulled on Attorney General Loretta Lynch at a private airstrip in Phoenix days before Comeys verdict into the original investigation. What on earth was he thinking compromising the integrity of the investigation in that way? People can make their own minds up but it stinks. The result of it, though, was that Lynch effectively recused herself from the investigation, handing full responsibility to Comey. If she hadnt been forced to do that, then we may not be in this new situation.
But ultimately, the person most to blame for all this is Hillary Clinton.
Shes the one who deliberately set up a private email server while she was Secretary of State in flagrant breach of the rules of government email usage.
Shes the one who exchanged classified information in those emails.
Shes the one who, when the balloon of this scandal went up, then deleted 33,000 of those emails, raising a huge cloud of suspicion over what they contained.
Shes the one who misled everyone repeatedly whenever she talked about this scandal.
Hillary Clinton made her secret email bed and she lied in it. Now she is paying the consequences and it may cost her the White House. Shes the one to blame not James Comey.
Its so humiliating. Watching her blame Comey for all this.
“Its so humiliating. Watching her blame Comey for all this.”
What’s the old saying? When you point a finger at someone else, the others are pointing back at yourself!
IMHO, the Democrats have no one but themselves to blame.
They knew Hilliary! was dirty, but gave her the nomination anyway.
I'll bet Bernie is laughing his head off, while enjoying his new vacation home at the same time.
Rats never take the blame for anything. It’s always someone elses’ fault that their crimes were uncovered.
Apparently across the pond they haven’t been paying attention to the Clinton M.O. over the past twenty-five years.
Piers Morgan?...........A rare moment of lucidity..........
The most bonkers thing is - Anthony Wiener was caught in June 2011 with his first sexting scandal.
Hillary and Abedin both were using “Clintonmail” addresses at the time, and Abedin was also sending confidential emails to her home “for printing” via her Yahoo address.
Yet, even though she had a publicly humiliated husband, no one EVER thought to question - maybe Huma and Hillary shouldn’t be exchanging, storing and printing government e-mails in the same house (or devices) as Anthony Weiner. NOT A THOUGHT about it! It continued for 2 years!!
Comey was backed into a corner for one reason or another. My bet is he weighed all his options and his choice points to the least amount of jail time. I would bet there will be a few more jumping on to this boat, or at least trying.
I wish the talking heads on TV would stop giving Hillary the benefit of doubt. If she were the 6 year old she would have been sent to her room years ago. They need to stop giving mulligans.
There is one FACT that everyone seems to ignore:
The FACT that the Clinton Gang KNOWS what is in those emails.............
She is the poster child for a humiliated fool
This is sad. When Bill was POTUS, it was a British reporter from Telegraph, Ambrose Evans-Pritchard, who dug into Clinton scandals alone, while most MSM were playing cheerleaders for Bill. Now we have to rely on Daily Mail to report on Hildebeast, and MSMS are even worse than during Bill’s days.
What would democrats say if Rosemary Woods had a backup tape (they didn’t have them in those days but go with me) for the 17 minutes and police stumbled on it? Would they have said wait until after the election to mention it? I think you know the answer.
Get rid of the plurality. Call him Pier and make him walk the plank.
Every now & then Piers gets it right - he’s firing on all cylinders & hitting the nail directly on the head with this article .... it’s actually ‘outstanding’ in laying it all out there in proper perspective. Bravo, Piers!! :-)
