In my opinion, the jury is still out on IRS and Benghazi, although the media and WH sort of ho hum it off.
The Clinton thing, time is huge. The time spent on Mitt Romneys money was exhausting, and he had no secret shell company,was not in a position to thus no appearance of selling influence.
There is so much there with the Clintons, starting with they are the complete definition of what the Democratic Party opposes. They are the definition of what they simply railed on during the last election.
Given the Clinton history of impeachment,scandal and rumors of scandal, I am in agreement with Paula Jones (I assume you remember her as one of Monica Lewinsky's predecessors who got a nice lump of money from the Clintons) who scoffs at the women's rights platform when she can speak to abuse, etc of women by Pres CLinton with the silent approval of his wife, Hillary.
Anyone who did have the money of the Clintons could not even sniff a chance at the nomination. Power , money and influence,supposedly the bane of the Democratic Party will head the ticket. Not sure if simple hypocrisy can define this
