Quote from AAAintheBeltway:
She has brushed off far bigger scandals than this one. Now that she has the full weight of the media behind her, she couldn't care less what some republican senators say.
There was a time when Bill was president that some few members of the media still valued their reputations enough to be a tiny bit skeptical of the Clintons. That time is long gone. Their narrative now is she has been a "great" Secretary of State. How they measure that escapes me. Probably it has a lot to do with desperately wanting her to succeed obama. That plus some lingering sympathy for having to be married to a dirt bag just to realize her lofty ambitions.
Her answer that she didn't see the cables doesn't bother me. Why should she? Rand Paul didn't impress me too much on that one. Does he really think a highly political Secretary of State is going to be reviewing cables from Libya about embassy security?
Now that doesn't mean she shouldn't have to take some responsibility for the resulting fiasco, but good luck with that.
Obviously she made a bit of a fool of herself with the screaming "what difference does it make" drama, but that was no doubt choreographed to make it look like she was being attacked by the party that waged a war on women.
