(CNN) -- A letter leaked this week disclosing that intelligence agencies found classified information in former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's emails has the Clinton campaign aiming its ire at a relatively unknown government investigator.

A Clinton campaign spokesman alleged I. Charles McCullough III, the inspector general for intelligence agencies, was intentionally leaking seemingly damaging information in collusion with Senate Republicans.

But McCullough is hardly an obvious target for that accusation. An Obama appointee, he was approved in the position back in 2011 with unanimous consent by a majority-Democratic Senate.

The episode is significant given it has sidetracked her presidential campaign, where Clinton is locked in a close Democratic primary race just days before the first caucus goers go to the polls.

The spat started Tuesday, when a letter from McCullough III to members of the Senate was leaked to the media, revealing the existence of "several dozen" cases of classified information.

That led Clinton and her campaign team to suggest the leak was an act of political sabotage, and to insist she never violated rules regarding preservation of information.

On Wednesday, a spokesman for Clinton's presidential campaign went so far as to claim McCullough was working with Senate Republicans to leak misleading information in an attempt to discredit the candidate.

1. Yes

I also remember that she never appointed an IG while she was at State either.

She's playing shoot the messenger. Look at what we found out today. When did Hillary know?

I can hear campaign violins in the distance.

3. always the victim, always

The Clintons have so cynically used their foes as shields to cover their own acts.
