You mean you think it is more stupid than the GOP having Trump sign a loyalty pledge.

Let's face it - these pledges aren't worth the paper that they are written on.  The truth is that Hilary went from being unbeatable to someone who is falling in the polls like a rock through water.  She'll keep on doggedly for as long as she can get money.  The fact that there were highly classified emails on her server doesn't surprise me.  And she is trying to make a case that the information was "overclassified".   I suppose that pressure could be brought to bear on the classifying authority to declassify it or lower the classification. 

As far as her IT person, I don't blame him for taking the 5th.  First, he is in hot water for unreported income - this form that is government wide make you report and certify every scrap of income, it's source and every scrap of debt.  And the agency counsel has to review in and sign it that there is no conflict of interest or suspcious income and that you aren't so far in debt that you would become blackmailable, so he's in trouble there.  Plus, who do you think helped her dump all those emails that she "reviewed" and decided whether it was personal or official?  There is a saying in Washington - when you find yourself in a hole, stop digging.  Guess he is taking that advice.
