Clinton campaign spokesman: The Obama-appointed Inspector General is just a Republican stooge

Clearly, the Clinton camp knows that its candidate is in some deep guano. If the investigation into her email server scandal had no "meat" to it, they'd employ their usual playbook and laugh it off. Hillary has a long history of chuckling at the "ludicrous" accusations thrown her way. In fact, she was doing so earlier in the year. As history shows, when the Clintons finally realize they can no longer mock their accusers into silence, they fire up the attack machine. It's sad, predictable, and clearly a desperation play, but it's what they know. It worked with the Lewinsky scandal, so they probably figure they can make it work again.
