Hillary book club: “How to Delete Something So It Stays Deleted”

"The last batch of Hillary Clinton emails released by the State Department included one from Clinton asking to borrow a book called “Send: Why People Email So Badly and How to Do It Better,” by David Shipley and Will Schwalbe."
Clinton has not said why she requested the book, but it includes some advice that is particularly interesting in light of the controversy over her unconventional email arrangement at the State Department and her decision to delete tens of thousands of emails she deemed to be purely personal.
Take, for example, Chapter Six: “The Email That Can Land You In Jail.” The chapter includes a section entitled “How to Delete Something So It Stays Deleted.”
“Some people are hoarders, some are checkers,” the authors write. “The main thing to consider is that once you do decide to delete, it’s like taking the garbage from your kitchen and putting it in your hallway. It’s still there.”
The chapter advised that to truly delete emails may require a special rewriting program “to make sure that it’s not just elsewhere on the drive but has in fact been written over sixteen or twenty times and rendered undefinable.”
Columnist and pundit Bill Kristol asks on a tweet...
"I notice no one who's served in senior positions in WH, State, DOD, IC even pretending to defend Hillary on server and Top Secret material."
Nobody is coming to Hillary's defense, while Bernie Sanders is packing them in and even passing her on a preponderant poll.

And the reference to that book was on an email she did not initially turn over.

Go home, sweetie. It's over.

If you don't end up in Allenwood, be glad.

She doesn't care. She knows that she has at least 40% of the vote if she gets the nomination, and all she needs then is the MSM to deliver another +10% and she wins.

She will not quit, even if the is charged with a crime. She'll still get that 40% of the vote if she is in jail.

Yeah, but they won't be able to those 140% turnouts for her.
