Nbc news senior Political Editor mark joins us as always. Clinton has not publicly addressed this petition. What kind of impact if any is this going to have . The good news for Hillary Clinton, in a lot of ways, its over for her. The last shoe to drop was whether the fbi and the Justice Department would press any charges.

He said that she shouldnt have had exercised poor judgment in having a private server. All things that republicans can be able to do to jump over her. Im knot sure as far as longterm its played out over a year. Republicans have thad these types of attacks. The Clinton Campaign is sighing a breath of relief. At the same time, the republicans will continue their attack. Right. How are they going to use this decision as they move though. You expected him to respond and he called it a rigged system. He did. You can tell by the end of the day, they werent happy. At the end of the day, there was a lot of criticism from fbi james comey on Hillary Clinton. But republicans were upset. They knew it was our one chance to make sure that Hillary Clinton isnt the democratic nominee. They werent successful there. Thats why youre not hearing complaints from donald trump and other republicans. Out with the new, paul showing that Hillary Clinton leading by 13 points which is an increase. What is donald trump going to do to throws that he can use the convention to bolster his numbers. Other polls dont show points. The average has been around 5 to 7 points right now. Of course, that was 7 points was how barack obama, the margin he beat john mccain. Keep that in mind. Hillary clinton is in the lead. Donald trump has time to make up the gap.
