Hillary Clinton addresses e-mail "scandal."

Hillary Clinton broke her silence Tuesday on the scandal surrounding her use of a private nongovernmental email address while she served as secretary of state, saying it was "a matter of convenience," that she "thought it would be easier to carry one device," and that it was allowed under the rules of the State Department. 

"Looking back, it would have been better if I had simply used a second email account and carried a second phone," Clinton said in a brief press conference at the United Nations after delivering a speech on women’s rights. "Using one device would be simpler, but obviously it hasn't worked out this way." 

The "vast majority" of her emails," Clinton said, were sent "to government employees at their work email addresses which meant they were captured and preserved by the State Department." 

State Department officials said that Clinton provided some 55,000 pages of documents — a fraction of what exists and a statistic that reveals little about what she shared, what she withheld and why. 

"I took the unprecedented step of asking the State Department to make all of my emails public," she said. 

Clinton said she withheld personal emails — including messages about "Chelsea's wedding plans" and her mother's funeral. 

The potential Democratic presidential front-runner said she has no plans to turn over her personal email server, despite calls from Republicans and some Democrats to do so. 

"The server contains personal communications from my husband and me," Clinton said. "The server will remain private."

I think this is going to break right along party lines. If you are a Democrat and a supporter this explanation will be more than enough.

However if you are a Republican there is literally NOTHING that Hillary could have said that would put this issue to rest. 

I actually really liked the beginning of her remarks where she verbally spanked those Republicans who sent that letter to Iran much better than her explanation. But of course none of this will cost her my vote.
