She's an attorney, who has worked as a prosecutor, then US Attorney for the Eastern District of NY, then Attorney General. She's never run for an elected office, as far as I can tell. So she's not a politician.

her, she felt the announcement needed to be moved up. She will rely on career FBI and DOJ prosecutors recommendations. I like Loretta Lynch. It is too bad she was forced to do this interview.

I was pushing for her before as AG before Eric Holder even left. I was no fan of Holder. But Lynch has already proven to be more aggressive in criminal activity.
