The look on his face was priceless
Wait is that an actual quote from one of the GOP members?

Oh, god, that makes my sphincter tighten.
So your personal hatred of a person is more important to you than your own core beliefs (if you really did support Obama and Bernie). I can't even imagine how horrible it would be to live like this.
And who says we are blindly supporting her? She has pros and cons, but her pros far outweighs (at least in my opinion) the cons, specially with the supreme court in play for the first time since WWII.
Trump is basically all bad, there's no pros to voting for him.
Not exact but roughly. It was closer to "Everything you said implied she committed a crime until you said 'however.' We finally got one here."
[edit] Also, he did say everyone wanted a certain outcome and that his opening statements indicated that that's what he was going to do [indict her].
He essentially whined that he didn't get what he wanted.

"We've railroaded people with far less than this. Did we mention that she is a woman and often seen hanging out with arabs and a black man of unknown ancestry?"

Comey's patience for being talked down to is amazing.
"As you know, [what Clinton did] should be a crime."
"As a Federal Prosecuter myself"
"Hillary Clinton is above the law" [despite the fact that Comey repeatedly said otherwise]
Ad nauseum. Ad infinitum.
"Der's lots of rooly dumb defen-DANTS."
[edit]
Question: "Why did you do what you did? What my interpretation of the FBI is supposed to be doing..."
Comey: "Everything I did, we do privately. What I decided to do is offer transparency to the people for the why of what I do...because this is an unprecedented situation."
[edit 2]:
Comey: "I've had to go the bathroom for about an hour."
Congressman: "Don't worry. We're about halfway done."

He'd bet his political capital (which is scarce enough) on a longshot?

I'm guessing Cruz wants to run again in 2020. Might be a good idea to stay quiet, and let Trump sink himself.
From where? New York? You could pick a random Democrat up from off the street and they'd beat whatever Republican you put up.

Umm...New York has Republican House members, not to mention just relocating her.

My take as well.
LatinoUSA poll just out:
Clinton: 80%
Trump: 13%
A 67% margin. I want more numbers, but this would be astounding.

She could maybe run as a Democrat. I don't think she's tainted. I mean he's her dad. No matter how shitty, blood is blood. People would get over it.

Virtually every third-candidate voter in the primaries eventually broke for Clinton. Wow.

Upstate NY is pretty conservative I think she can win up there.
This would be historically bad right?
Like way worse than how Romney and McCain did with Latinos if I'm remembering things correctly.
Comey clarifying that the deletion of these supposed incriminating emails was actually state department directed, that they went through the 60k emails in review to determine what should be kept. Then IT asked her, if she would like to keep any of her personal emails and she said no.
So, in other words, this perception that Clinton ominously hovered over her private server commanding her minions to wipe it clean is now no longer in play.
[edit]
GOP still trying that angle of getting Comey to declare her inadequate to trust presidential secrets by asking if they were in Hillary's shoes, how would they be prosecuted. Comey repeatedly replies that it would need to go under robust investigation in order to determine the security lapse and that you cannot make a judgment simply based off of that information.
[edit] The public now apparently demands her to suffer consequences, so I guess we must punish her regardless of what Comey's investigation uncovered.

Long Island has two Republican reps, not to mention Staten Island is more conservative than the rest of NYC. She could also run for district 18, which represents the upper Hudson Valley.

Is it any surprise that the mountain of bullshit that has been surrounding this with people pretending like they know far more than the FBI did is falling apart.

It does, but I can't see her moving into one of those districts. The Dems basically run all the nice parts of town.
In 2012, it was 71 - 27 between Obama and Romney.
Wow that insane drop from Bush to McCain should've set off alarms for the GOP and it only got worse with Romney.
But here we are with Trump as their nominee now.
From Pew:
..
edit: and now Pew is showing Clinton +9% in their general election poll.
Pew pew pew!
