the FBI recommends indicting her, AG refuses and someone leaks that the FBI recommended indicting her?  How does this affect the race?

I guess Trump would have fun with the fake Indian woman, or Biden.  Anyone competent who could be inserted?

I ask this because there are a number of news articles last few days raising these possibilities.

I think if she gets indicted, even the DNC will figure out that they have to replace her with another stooge.

Otherwise, it won't matter; her base (and they are quite base), will vote for her anyway.

I can't see how anyone else but her base could vote for her even without an indictment, though.

There appears to be some very very bad news for Hillary Clinton in the latest emails.

That question is whether the justice department will get enough pressure to prosecute. Because heavens knows they'd love to sweep this one under the rug. If they don't (likely), I wonder if Republicans will have the balls to appoint a special prosecutor.

According to the Clinton playbook, the next response will be "That's old news; put it behind us."

I'll be left pondering whether it was a good or bad thing that hell has frozen over.

Hillary is collapsing in the prediction markets. The one I bet in has her chances of being president down to 44%, with Sanders and Trump neck-and-neck.

If she collapses of her own free weight who comes to the rescue? Biden?
