People I was forced to watch CNN yesterday during car maintenance and now I understand why folks make fun of poor Wolf Blitzer!
The supposedly new 15,000 emails discovered by a GOP think tank had already been seen by the FBI. And FBI director James Comey did not prosecute based on them.
Only 3 of the 15,000 emails suggested much access. In two of them, access was then denied by the tough Huma Abedin(since we seem to be doing nicknames):/ and in the third, Crown Prince of Bahrain gave money and asked for a meeting...but he already had a meeting lined up through the State Dept's official channels because he is the Crown Prince of Bahrain:/ and didn't need to pay for access.
So did peope try for access? Yes! Did they get a quid pro quo? No! Hillary and Huma Abedin were quite admirable about this, I think.
Story to back this up to follow when I cool off.
In short, The Washington Post has said:
"To be clear: Clinton has already been cleared of any official wrongdoing in the matter by Comey. And Comey and the FBI were aware of this latest batch of emails — hell, they found them! -- when he rendered his judgment on Clinton."

Sorry I can't find the srory of the three access-emails now but will be back.
