Chozick points out that Secretary Clinton refused to be interviewed by the Inspector General as part of the security review and, in effect, questions Clinton's insistence that the voters don't care about the email controversy. Noting Clinton's very high unfavorable opinion rating, Chozik notes that when voters are asked why they do not trust Ms. Clinton, "Again and again they will answer with a single word: Emails."
As Sir Walter Scott observed in a memorable poem:
Oh what a tangled web we weave,
When first we practice to deceive!
Or as one might add in the context of modern politics:
But when we've practiced for a while,
We markedly improve our style
Secretary Clinton faces an immense task in trying to improve her style. A judgment on how well she's doing may be recorded by the voters in the California primary on June 7.
