Page sent a letter directly to Comey on September 25, 2016
From the letter:
Having interacted with members of the U.S. intelligence community including the FBI and CIA for many decades, I appreciate the limitations on your staff’s time and assets. Although I have not been contacted by any member of your team in recent months, I would eagerly await their call to discuss any final questions they might possibly have in the interest of helping them put these outrageous allegations to rest while allowing each of us to shift ourattention to relevant matters. Thank you in advance for your consideration.
You make a good point.
As a Conservative, Page did not have a lot of options.
Spilling his guts to Conservative media would have probably resulted in classified information related indictments.
