Hillary Clinton ramps up her war with FBI director James Comey as she hits out at his 'strange, unprecedented and deeply troubling' decision to reopen email probe

Hillary Clinton took her war against FBI Director James Comey right to her own supporters Saturday, bringing up the freighted issue of her email scandal and the FBI's investigation at a rally in Daytona Beach. She took on Comey head-on a day after he released a letter announcing that the bureau was examining new emails connected to its investigation into the former secretary of state.

The Democratic candidate was in Florida notably without her longtime aide Huma Abedi, who remained home in New York, after the online sexting habits of her husband, Anthony Weiner, upended her longtime boss's presidential campaign. 'If you're like me, you probably have a few questions about it,' Clinton told a crowd of about 800 at a community center. 'It is pretty strange. It's pretty strange to put something like that out with such little information, right before an election,'

Clinton said. The crowd booed at the first mention of the FBI issue. 'In fact, it's not just strange it's unprecedented and it's deeply troubling,' Clinton said. Clinton had first gone after Comey Friday in a surprise press conference just hours after the news broke, just days before the November 8 election.
