Related: About this forumHow the email "scandal" validates Hillary
The entire Republican party spent the last 10 or 20 years looking for dirt on Hillary.
And what do they have to show for it? Emails.
Emails??
Emails?????
Maybe Democrats should start pointing out that the email controversy validates Hillary because if that's the best the Repubs can come up with then she's probably one of the most blameless politicians that has ever lived.

(150 posts)If an entire national party (not to mention all the conservative talk show hosts) spent 20 years trying to find dirt on any politician and the best they could find was some emails I'd take that as ironclad proof that the politician was OK, in fact, much more than OK.
So instead of trying to defend against all the email hype we could say "If that's all they can find, then Hillary must be golden. Now how about talking about the teenage rape court case against Trump, his former campaign directors Russian connection, etc., etc., etc."
