Remember, it's possible that none of this would be happening now if Anthony Weiner had just gotten a mistress like a normal congressman

FUGELSANG.

1. It wouldn't have happened if the poor judgement didn't happen in the first place. n/t

6. There was always going to be an FBI investigation of the Democratic candidate, even if it had been

Bernie Sanders or Martin O'Malley. And HRC would have been investigated over something else, if not her email server.

There was a private email server inside the Bush White House. It was not considered scandalous.

8. Magical thinking gets us nowhere.

Taking an honest look at what went wrong does.

9. I am taking an honest look at what went wrong and coming to an honestly different conclusion than

the one you have come to.

I honestly think that the 2016 election was all about an email server.

[demmiblue]

10. As is your right.

I think our party will be a little more introspective, thank dog.

No public official should have a private server to conduct governmental business. I hope that has been settled.

[StevieM]

11. And yet George Bush had one inside the White House. And I believe Trump has one now.

So did Governors Mike Pence and Jeb Bush.

In any event, it was not scandalous, let alone illegal.

[demmiblue]

12. OK, so you are fine with it (despite the lack of evidence for some of your allegations).

Good to know. I am not. FOIA.

[demmiblue]

2. Also, Weiner's issues aren't about getting a mistress.

He is a predator.

[mythology]

3. Or if Clinton didn't have the stupid server in the first place

[StevieM]

5. WRONG. There would have been a different fake scandal that they would attacked her for.

Complete with a bogus FBI investigation.

There was a private email server inside the Bush White House. It was not considered scandalous.

4. i don't think weiner is looking for sex

He is more like the instagram girls that want likes and compliments.And sexting.

But nothing in person.

[StevieM]

7. I disagree. They were always going to find a way to "reopen" the case. (eom)

[L. Coyote]

13. They were doing whatever it took by whatever means necessary, no matter what.

If they had not found one path they would have chosen another. And in the final days they still needed Comey's letter.

And then they still had to rig at least three states to win the electoral college.
