I was fine with Hillary until this recent mess and have always thought (and vocally expressed my views) that Benghazi was bogus. I think I've lost my rose-colored glasses when it comes to Hillary, however.

What is so egregious about this mess?

Seriously? Using a private, insecure server for all official emails she sent or received at State? Not maintaining public records for the future?

This pretty much explains the hole she's dug:

Beyond the legal and security issues, the handling of this mess by Hillary and her staff has been abysmal and richly deserving of criticism.

I don't see it either, Dond. Guess I never internalized devotion to the to the security bureaucracy as a high moral duty, up there with keeping your kids out of danger and stuff.

Like, what I've gotten here is that desiring privacy, she used a private email server, and some stuff on it is being found, after the fact, not when it went on, as being 'classified.' Not a pure-as-driven-snow thing to do, but it's not 'sold kidnapped babies into slavery' either, if you get my meaning....

Well, can you summarize briefly what's beyond the paywall there?

Workaround for the paywall at Murdoch's Wall St. Urinal.

I'm hitting the wall too but not without discovering that the article linked to is an OpEd and, as most of us realize, the editorial board of the WSJ under Murdoch is screamingly right wing and Murdoch himself hates the Clintons.
