I don't understand why anyone's changing their vote over this. What's currently being alleged, that wasn't already, in Comey's last investigation? Why do they care that she's being investigated now, but apparently didn't care about all the things Comey already said, about all the laws that were broken?
I think part of it is that people like us who "pay attention" have a hard time internalizing the perspective of people who are more superficial about politics. And it's only deepened by the modern era of short attention spans, and constant streams of distractions and pop culture in a variety of platforms that just didn't exist even 20 years ago. It also comes from the still very much majority center-Left bias of the MSM which many people still believe to be impartial.
The whole original chain of Benghazi, the mail server, the emails, classified materials on a non .gov server/system, to a lot of people, it just looks like "
Meh... politics... (shrug)" to them. They have a dismissive view that the whole thing is either some sort of tit-for-tat partisan exercise, or they believe they possess some sort of cosmopolitan wisdom if they decide that "
Everybody does stuff like that in politics, Hillary just screwed up and got caught... sorta."
So when the whole thing rolls around TWICE.. and the MSM is all abuzz that Comey had to "re-open the investigation" and people clue into into the fact it's related to Anthony Weiner and sexting, (A more pop-culture/tabloid and salacious angle that gets attention) it
finally starts to cut through the brain-fog that blankets the mind of your average American. And some of them start to get an inkling that there's actual a "there" there and all the claims of Hillary's corruption might actually have some merit.
