The Hill: The chaos scenario for Democrats
It’s the scenario that Republicans dream of and Democrats believe is all but impossible: Hillary Clinton being forced to drop out of the presidential race due to criminal charges over her email server.
Any bombshell findings in the FBI’s investigation of Clinton could plunge the Democratic race into chaos.
Bernie Sanders could stand to gain. As the only other candidate in the Democratic race, the party could quickly coalesce around him in an effort to halt the bedlam. But that’s far from a sure thing, with many in the party fearful he would be a weak general election candidate.
Democrats insist there’s virtually no chance that Clinton will be indicted over her server. The candidate has said repeatedly that no laws were broken, and that classified information was never sent over the server. Asked about an indictment at the last Democratic debate, Clinton responded: “That's not going to happen.”
In the event that Clinton stepped aside after winning the nomination at the convention, the Democratic National Committee could decide on the replacement on its own.
If an indictment came before the convention, the path would be more difficult.

WNU Editor: If Hillary Clinton is nominated as the Democrat candidate for President .... and she is indicted .... I can easily see Vice President Biden being selected to run in her place. And even though Vice President Biden has many flaws, he will be a formidable candidate and a viable (and preferred) alternative for many to Donald Trump.
Update: In the past few weeks I have taken the time to watch the first 3 complete seasons of "The House Of Cards" .... so yes .... I am in the mood and mindset for politics.

This kind of discussion is Republican soft-porn and is about as reality based.
I don't see how they cannot indict Clinton, the FBI has a lot evidence and all the security agencies want her prosecuted, the NSA really want her indicted, she really messed up with them , if she isn't indicted it would be a terrible blow to the rule of law and a very negative message to Americans and Govt workers.
TWN. Rules are made to be broken and only the plebe's follow up not the royalty and Hillary Clinton is a queen untouched is the one who is been Born To Rule
And it's say I don't ever lied
