Of course it's not.
When you delete 33,000 e-mails AFTER a congressional subpoena is issued for them, the thing stops becoming a witch hunt.
Again: If Joe Biden had been the Democratic candidate, there would be no weeping and gnashing of teeth by the red avatars here. They'd be sittin' pretty. But, no, they just had to pay their debt to the Feminist Left by going into the tank for a female candidate with the most liabilities going forward. Otherwise, they'd be sexist. Oh, my!
In truth, the Democratic Party "establishment" either IS the Clintons or is indebted to the Clintons. That begs the question of why you'd want a candidate from a party so indebted.
Don't be so upset about gender equality. Your deplorable sexism is on its way out.
The Democratic Party has no lack of capable female officeholders who could have run for President without the specter of an FBI investigation hanging over their head. Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN). Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D-MI). Sen. Patty Murray (D-WA). Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-MN). House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA). Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA). Not a slouch in the bunch, although I consider Klobuchar to be heads and tails above this field in terms of ability and electability. The Feminist Left, as much as I disagree with them on a number of social issues, are a key constituency of the Democratic Party and the idea that the Democrats ought to nominate a female candidate in a nod to a key constituency isn't totally ridiculous. But why a candidate under investigation by the FBI? And why not allow that candidate under investigation to battle it out for viability with other Democrats? Sanders is NOT A DEMOCRAT and would not have entered the race but for the lack of real Democrats running.
It's not an issue of "gender equality". It's an issue of why the world's oldest political party went into the tank for a Presidential candidate that was under active FBI investigation. Why is she so special? And she has, indeed, received special undeserved favor from the Democratic Party; if this were not true, there would be a slew of challengers for the Democratic nomination, one of whom would have been a sitting VP and others of whom that would not have been under investigation. Hillary's "special". And that's not been a good thing for the Democratic Party, or for America.
