    It won't be a full blown Clinton scandal until Lanny Davis starts making the rounds on the cables.

    I'm not sure it's such a good idea to assume that these 55,000 emails are the entirety of her electronic correspondence.

    I haven't assumed that.

    Yes. This is what I mean. I don't trust her, or any politician, to self-report everything. Why should I?

    I'm also not saying she IS hiding something. I'm saying there's every reason in the world, judging by her own actions, to suspect that she is.

    People with nothing to hide don't purposely circumvent record-keeping laws for the entirety of their term.

    But, by all means, cull what you have for anything nefarious. Find some kind of assurance that you've documented everything. Once those two things happen, I'm good to go. But it still is what it is - an arrogant flaunting of transparency laws.

    Wasn't there a big flap that Rove and (I think) Cheney were using private emails stored on private servers and thus didn't have to turn them over?

    I'm not convinced she's hiding anything in particular.

    I think that she thinks everything she does is worth hiding, particularly since she had one goal as Secretary of State, and that was to emerge unscathed with the line on her resume.

    I doubt that she would hide anything except her personal stuff. I believe that I read that Sandy Berger was the adviser who reviewed all the
    e -mails and decided which ones should be sent to The State Dept. He has always been known as a man of integrity.

    Are you referring to the kerfuffle where the emails were "lost" after a server "crash" that resulted in Rove, Alberto Gonzales and several other high-ranking DOJ officials resigning?

    I'm sure that was just a huge overreaction, too.

    It was not a big deal either that The IRS lost a bunch of e-mails from a server being changed.
