What is funny is there are those of you who will say it was OK for Powell to use a non-government email to conduct official business because he was/is a good person. But, the same folks will criticize Hillary because she is in your opinion, not so good a person. Reminds me of the song about taxing the other guy.
Regardless of someone's political stance, all government employees, elected or otherwise, should be held to the same standard. In reality this is nothing more than a smoke screen to obscure the real issues of the day. At the end of the day, there isn't much difference between a Republican or a Democrat.
How often did we hear the Republicans begging for votes so they could roll back Obama's executive action on immigration, only to cave last week? Why? They know their base is vote for them regardless. They are hoping they can pull out a few Hispanic voters by saying down the road that they are sympathetic to their cause.
Also, I seem to recall hearing a lot of noise about rolling back Obamacare, but what have they done. ZERO Why, follow the money. I'd be willing to bet the heath insurance lobby has thrown tons of cash at them to keep them. Obamacare has and will be a windfall for health insurance companies. That is one of the most prosperous market sectors. The Republicans don't want to piss them off and have them start backing Democratic candidates.
