more like him. He doesn't believe in going verbally unarmed into a serious fight and just "Tsk taking." As he said, doesn't matter what Hillary says or does, it won't ever be good enough for the Republicans about emails or anything else. Just as they always, always find fault with every big and small thing Obama does and they never let up, so they did with Hillary and will do with whoever becomes our candidate or a Dem president. I've come to see this as rather freeing up any energy Dems could have spent trying to get Republican cooperation or credit for anything. Since no matter what they'd do they would be bitterly condemned and criticized, they can be free and not give a damn about the Party of NO's reactions other than to stick 'em back down their throats like Carville did.
