Are The Clintonistas Getting Nervous?

You have to wonder what is going on.  James Comey, the former head of the FBI, is out with his book and his interviews.  Comey calls President Trump all sorts of names, speculates without any evidence about potential wrongdoing by Trump or blackmail of Trump by the Russians, and generally denounces Trump as unfit to be hold the office of president.  Many on the left are eating this stuff up, but the old Clinton crew has been busy denouncing Comey.  The Clintonistas have criticize Comey for what he says about Loretta Lynch, for not telling the whole truth, for injecting politics into the FBI, and many other things.  How can it be that Democrats in Washington are generally reveling in the Comey statements, no matter how lame they may be, while the Clinton crew is still hitting Comey with a hammer?

There are two possible explanations:

1.  The Clintonistas blame Comey for Hillary's loss to Trump and are glad to pound him in revenge.  Normally, that would make sense except that by pounding Comey, they are helping President Trump.  And remember, the Clintonistas hate Trump more than anyone else on the planet.  That pretty much rules out this explanation.

2.  The Clinton campaign had more involvement with the FBI than we already know, and the Clintonistas are worried that Comey may actually start to talk about that.  As a result, they are trying to destroy Comey's credibility now so that if he eventually discloses the FBI-Clinton connection, it will be disbelieved as just another Comey story.  That one sounds like a more likely scenario. 

I realize that the second possibility places me into the conspiracy theorist camp.  I don't have any such theory, but I have spent years watching the behavior of the Clintons and their staff.  A pre-emptive strike to destroy a potential adversary who could hurt them is a common tactic that they use. 

My guess is that there's a lot more here than we know.  Comey clearly was a leaker and is a perjurer.  Nevertheless, I bet he knows a lot more about just how it was that Hillary avoided indictment in connection with mishandling classified information, much of which would not serve the Clintons or their people very well were it to become public.
