Hillary Rodham Clinton is getting the third, fourth and maybe the fifth degrees over this server business.<\/p>\n

The Democrats’ presidential frontrunner is under fire over the way she handled e-mail communications while she was serving as secretary of state and her use of a personal e-mail server to conduct State Department business.<\/p>\n

She cut off a press conference when the question kept coming about the server issue and whether she destroyed information that belongs to the public.<\/p>\n

At one level, this continuing investigation has partisan politics written all over it. Republicans do not want her to become the 45th president of the United States; thus, it’s understandable that they would do whatever they can to deny her the office.<\/p>\n

The e-mail controversy — and I refuse to call it a “scandal” — has given them a quiver full of ammo to fire at former secretary of state.<\/p>\n

She said today she did everything that is prescribed by law and insisted she broke no laws.<\/p>\n

On a human level, I understand her continuing frustration over the continuing coverage of this matter.<\/p>\n

On another level, though, I want this matter settled. She has turned her server over to the Department of Justice. My hope is that Clinton will answer all the questions posed to her.<\/p>\n

At some point it will have to become as obvious to the rest of the country — as it is to Clinton — that the investigations into the e-mail matter will produce zero criminal culpability.<\/p>\n

Therefore, all the politicians involved in seeking to undermine her candidacy will realize they are doing more damage to themselves than they are to her.<\/p>\n

First things first, though. Hillary Clinton needs to deliver all the goods about this e-mail business for thorough public inspection.<\/p>\n\n
