Trump, it will be proof of Comey's partisanship Saying Comey was a partisan hack doesn't hit some people. Comey not releasing info for one side when he has for the other people understand. Plus, this will likely play out in the headlines so he'll take the headlines away from Clinton's emails.

Nothing is the norm as you note. Shame so many feel like it's needed, it always gets like this close to an election though.

I mean sure, a video of him assaulting someone would be huge, but that would already be out you'd think, whereas this would need to come from those in gov.

Or so close to that number it hardly matters. Apparently they are doing everything they can to destroy the country, since they can't HAVE it. That's what evil is, kiddies, not an email shortcut in your basement.

Hang on. The next week is going to be the worst October Surprise ever. WE will only be seeing/ hearing what those 3 guys want us to hear.
