POOR HILLARY, SHE HAS A PROBLEM – AT 8:05 A.M. ET:  I feel so sorry for her.   She's "earned" $140-million, with her husband, in recent years.  But how can she keep it, and enjoy an occasional lunch at Burger King, with all these legal expenses?  From Fox:   

Charles Krauthammer told viewers Tuesday on “Special Report with Bret Baier” that revelations classified emails were found on Hillary Clinton's private server that she used to conduct business showed that “it’s not only her trustworthiness, it’s the fact that nothing she says ever is true three weeks later.”

On Tuesday, the Intelligence Community Inspector General informed Congress that two of four classified emails found on Clinton's personal server carried a “Top Secret” classification – one of the highest security categorizations.

Clinton has repeatedly denied using her private account to send or receive any classified emails. On March 10 she told reporters “I did not email any classified material to anyone on my email. There is no classified material. So I'm certainly aware of the classification and requirements and did not send classified material.”

Krauthammer, a syndicated columnist and Fox News contributor said that Tuesday’s revelation is simply part of a larger pattern of behavior by the former secretary of state: “She says ‘there was nothing classified and I know how to do that, I know the process,’ and then it was revised to ‘nothing that at the time was classified.’ Well, now we’re learning that it is quite probable that actually at the time it was, and she should have known it even if she’ll claim, obviously, that she didn’t.

“There’s always a movement, a parsing of the edges, a cutting, with her husband, and with herself and that is the problem that dogs her and that she cannot escape.”

COMMENT:  And that's what people see, and have often seen.  And yet, if she is the nominee, you may be sure that the same media that put Barack Obama in office will make every effort to put Hillary in office, as another "first."  They will be some pro forma concerns expressed about her, but I can just imagine The New York Times saying, "On balance, she is far preferable to a candidate of the Republican Party, with its anti-woman agenda and reckless foreign policy."

In addition, she went to the right schools, and that counts more than anything.
