Not only is she not taking her department out of the loop and appointing a special prosecutor, but shes not 100% accepting the call of the FBI either. There are no career prosecutors on James Comeys team. Those prosecutors all work for Lynch in the Justice Department. From the beginning shes been saying that it would be those professionals who would decide the merits of the case, so this may be nothing other than window dressing to appease the voters outraged by the meeting with Bill Clinton while sticking with business as usual.
But theres a second possibility as well and Im just going to toss it out there. Its been leaked from multiple sources that the FBI investigation is winding down and Comey is close to wrapping this thing up. Very likely the final decision has already been made and hes just making sure all the Is are dotted and the Ts crossed before handing over his work.
What are the chances that Lynch doesnt know what the decision is at this point? In fact, I wouldnt be terribly shocked if that was part of the conversation she had with Bill Clinton. (Yes Im basically saying that theyre lying about the meeting. If you can ever prove me wrong Ill be happy to apologize.) What if Comey has already decided to pull the rip cord and recommend no formal charges against Hillary Clinton because the firestorm resulting from a call to prosecute would just be too hot for him? Then Lynch and the President are in the clear. She can simply claim that she was leaving it up to Comey all along and the entire unpleasant affair drops down the memory hole.
