State Department Email Report Complicates Clinton's Message

[...] a new government report about her usage of a private email server as secretary of state is complicating that message. The sharp rebuke from the State Department's inspector general, which found Clinton did not seek legal approval for her homebrew email server, guarantees that the issue will remain alive and well for the likely Democratic presidential nominee for a second summer. The new report comes at a particularly challenging time for the Clinton campaign, as she faces a two-front war against presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump and primary rival Bernie Sanders. In the early weeks of his general election campaign he's dubbed Clinton "Crooked Hillary" — a moniker intended to underscore questions about integrity. [...] he's focused on the scandals of her husband's administration, insinuating that questions still remain about those controversies. Though he's declined to turn the email inquiries into a pivotal issue during the primaries, Sanders has spent months questioning Clinton's record on economics, foreign policy and even social issues including same-sex marriage. While she's a mere 78 delegates from capturing her party's nomination, Clinton been unable to edge her primary rival out of the race — or win over his most passionate backers. [...] the new information released by the State Department does call into question some claims made by Clinton herself, most notably her argument that she appropriately preserved her correspondence and that she was happy to "talk to anybody, anytime" about the matter.
