Not realistic, told by really smart people - don't push something you can't succeed in.

But then again what would we expect from the man who said he wasn't any populist (which is someone for the common people).

What a putz.

news media.

If you choose not to, that's on you.

... maybe not, since I think I read an article right here on DU this afternoon stating that it's now in the hands of the Loretta Lynch's Justice Dept as we speak, like at this very moment. I think the article intimated that the FBI investigation is over, and now the JD is winding down with some interviews. I think I read a date of April 26th, or around that date, that the results of the investigation will be at hand. I believe it was from the NYTs

IOW, an announcement with the results of the investigation appears to be imminent.

...no one can say what the object of the investigation is.

Well, at least the Sanders supporters have stopped saying what they were saying for weeks a while back, falsely claiming that "the FBI is ready to indict Clinton".

FBI's Comey says Dem convention not a deadline for Clinton email investigation

LONDON, April 21 (UPI) -- FBI Director James Comey said Thursday the coming Democratic National Convention does not constitute a deadline for his agency's investigation into Hillary Clinton's use of a private email server while secretary of state.

Multiple media reports have indicated the investigation is in its final stages, with interviews likely of key Clinton aides and, possibly, the Democratic front-runner herself. The FBI is investigating whether Clinton or any of her employees at the State Department violated federal laws over the storage of classified documents on a private email server she had set up in her home in New York, rather than with her government-provided email account.

Clinton E-Mail Probe May Not Be Done by Convention: FBI’s Comey

“There’s no timetable on any investigation,” FBI Director James Comey says at Aspen Security Forum in London.

“We aspire to do all our investigations in two ways, well and promptly”
Comey says if he had to choose between the two, he would choose to do it well

FBI's Comey: No rush on Clinton email probe

Washington (CNN)FBI Director James Comey said Tuesday he does not see a need for urgency in completing the ongoing investigation into Hillary Clinton's email server. But he did say that he is staying "close to this one to make sure we have the resources to do it competently," the Niagara-Gazette reported Tuesday.

Comey, in a visit to the FBI's Buffalo, New York, field office, said it's the agency's priority to complete the investigation "well and promptly" but that "well" comes first. Sources have previously told CNN that the investigation has entered its final stages.
When asked by reporters whether he felt any pressure to wrap up the investigation prior to the Democratic convention in July, Comey said no, CNN affiliate WIVB.com reported.

"The only reason I hesitate is in any investigation of intense public interest, whether it involved a public figure. Involves some horrific crime. San Bernardino is a great example. We feel a great sense of urgency to do it well and to do it promptly," Comey said.

Grassley: FBI could leak Clinton email investigation

U.S. Sen. Chuck Grassley suggested on Friday that the FBI might leak reports of its investigation into presidential candidate Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server as secretary of state.

Grassley, Iowa’s senior senator and chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, said an anonymous and unauthorized release of FBI investigative materials could result if officials at the agency believed prosecution of Clinton was stymied for political reasons.

“Is there going to be political interference? If there’s enough evidence to prosecute, will there be political interference?” Grassley wondered aloud during a breakfast meeting with the Des Moines A.M. Rotary club on Friday. “And if there’s political interference, then I assume that somebody in the FBI is going to leak these reports and it’s either going to have an effect politically or it’s going to lead to prosecution if there’s enough evidence.”

The senior senator’s musing came in response to a long answer to a very general question from one of the Rotarians about the status on inquiries into the email server and Clinton’s handling of the 2012 terrorist attack on a diplomatic post in Benghazi, Libya.

Yes, Bernie Sanders Will Become President. Hillary Clinton’s FBI Investigation Isn’t a ‘Nothingburger’

erhaps the greatest compliment paid to me recently was from a Boston Globe columnist who remarked that I must really be Andy Kaufman. It’s a compliment, first because Kaufman was a genius, and also because his genius rested in the absurd; almost like voting for a presidential candidate being investigated by the FBI. In 2016, the most qualified candidate according to smart Democratic strategists holds negative favorability ratings in every single national poll. In 8 out of 10 national polls, Hillary Clinton’s favorability ratings are negative by 15 points or more. According to recent CBS and NBS/WSJ polls, Clinton holds negative favorability ratings by 23 and 24 point margins, respectively. A progressive said to “get things done” won’t be able to win the White House with such negative national ratings.

In contrast, Bernie Sanders is the only leading candidate with positive favorability ratings, and this has nothing to do with Clinton being more “vetted.” Bernie doesn’t need private servers and speaks to millions of people in open forums; Clinton is the antithesis of Vermont’s Senator. It’s not that people don’t know about Bernie’s controversies, it’s that he simply doesn’t have a penchant for controversy like his competitor. Unlike Clinton, Bernie Sanders can type an email without the FBI interviewing him or his associates.

Furthermore, I explain in my latest CNN International appearance that Sanders is the best chance to defeat Trump, especially since Clinton could face DOJ indictment. I also discuss on CNN New Day that Clinton’s white privilege allows her to circumvent almost any scandal, even issues that Bernie Sanders couldn’t survive politically.

In terms of stark contrasts between Clinton and Sanders, you couldn’t find a greater example of two candidates who epitomize opposing value systems. While Bernie Sanders has electrified millions of voters by simply focusing on progressive ideals, Hillary Clinton can’t even disclose a speech transcript, or hold a fundraising event without static noise machines.

Is in fact, under FBI investigation. This is reality, Hillarybots. Sad that Democrats would stoop this low to nominate a corrupt corporate candidate, especially when we have a better alternative.

... and yet didn't mention his name once.

They will simply give us the all-new, left-leaning Jo!
Would anyone vote for this corrupt light weight?
He has no chance of beating Trump.

"Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act of 2005"

... "This wasn’t the first time Congress had passed this shameful act. Bill Clinton vetoed it in the 90’s, so we know where he stands. The credit industry, ever relentless, kept coming back, confidant they had the number of elected officials necessary to do their bidding. They did, and Joe Biden was always one of them."

... "The final version of the bill was cleverly titled the “Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act of 2005,” but it wasn’t aimed at preventing abuse or protecting consumers, and everyone knew it." ...

Joe is now under the VAN Bus!

Must not be a "real" Democrat because he wasn't fawning the Hill!

Sorry Joe...you've been cast aside.

Hillary's that is.

He will do just as well, for those who wish to destroy the party

I can't believe anyone things this is goon news for Bernie.

... I've always interpreted the phrase "My-Good-Friend-From..." as meaning "That-ASSHOLE-From..."
