Removing bumps on the road to Hillary's coronation

Mark Steyn writes about former House GOP Speaker Dennis Hastert's sex scandal,

The feds don't actually have jurisdiction over Hastert's high-school sex life and, in the state that does, the statute of limitations has kicked in. But that's no reason for them not to dispatch another couple of dozen investigators to go crawling over Illinois. I mean, it's not like they've got anything else to do, like investigating Lois Lerner or Hillary's server...

...As the story unfolds, only one thing can be said for certain: We're never gonna hear another word about Hillary's Clinton Foundation scandals ever again, not even if ISIS paid $2 million for Bill to deliver a 20-minute speech on climate change at the Sword of the Beheader Elementary School in Ramadi and they decapitated ten Christians as the warm-up act.

So far, The New York Times has five reporters on the Hastert story, The Washington Post nine ...so there's no one left in the newsroom to look into Hillary - even though Bill's been flying around with convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein on a plane called the Lolita Express. Couldn't that just sort of get mentioned in paragraph 37 of the Hastert stories, maybe with Josh Duggar, as part of a general pedophile trend among the powerful?

So now all three Republican House Speakers from the Impeachment Era have been destroyed. And Slick Willie will be able to say that he was impeached for having consensual relations with a 21-year-old woman by a House led by a guy who had non-consensual relations with underage boys. That would be Impeachment Redemption at a most convenient time. When's the trial scheduled for? September 2016?

If that's where we're headed, it would be too much to expect the Democrat-media complex to forgo the pleasure of making the third most powerful Republican of the century the poster boy for his party.

I've been wondering what it would take to get Bill and Hillary over this awkward little bump on the road to her coronation. They've always been lucky like that...
