Krauthammer: Hillary Has ‘a Martha Stewart Problem’ and a ‘Petraeus Problem’

‘— which is the mishandling of classified information’

BAIER: "Yeah, Charles, I mean, we’re dealing with the email situation, the classified situation, now material false statements investigation into that. We’re not even talking about the Clinton Foundation and how that may bleed into her time as secretary of state." 
KRAUTHAMMER: "Look, right now, what it looks like is she’s got a Martha Stewart problem, which is the false information, misleading or her aides or pressuring somebody, that’s a pretty big category. It also includes destroying information. Remember, she destroyed 30,000 emails and we have to assume that there was nothing in there that might have affected this case. That’s a pretty tall assumption and she has a David Petraeus problem, which is the mishandling of classified information. These are real serious and I do think the FBI seems to be showing at least when you listen to the head of the FBI that they are not going to be deterred by political pressure. Now, in the end, it could turn out that the political appointees will not allow an indictment to go ahead, but if it happens and whoever is leaking this stuff is going to leak about what was suppressed, there will be resignations, it will like the Saturday night massacre that she knows about. She was there in the Watergate days, on the other side and it will be devastating for her."
