Robby Mook: Clinton Campaign Hasn't Asked Huma Abedin About What Is In Her Emails

Clinton campaign manager Robby Mook artfully dodges this question from 'Fox News Sunday' host Chris Wallace in three or four different ways. <blockquote>WALLACE: Well, you talked about the responsibility of the American people to get all the information out. There is someone who knows what's in all those e-mails and that is Huma Abedin. Has Secretary Clinton asked her what's in those e-mails? MOOK: Well, Chris, the problem with what you're saying there is we don't know. We don't know where these e-mails are from. You're making an inference that it could have been Huma Abedin. Your guess is as good as anyone. And this is why Director Comey needs to get all the information out there. (CROSSTALK) WALLACE: Well, I’m asking you a direct question. Has Secretary Clinton asked Huma Abedin what was on that laptop that she shared with her husband Anthony Weiner? MOOK: She hasn't. You just offered a hypothetical on the table. Let me offer you some hypotheticals that I’ve read in the press. I’ve heard a hypothetical that these e-mails have nothing to do with Hillary Clinton whatsoever, that she didn't send or receive any of them. WALLACE: That doesn't matter. It's still the question of what's in the e-mails. So, why wouldn't she asked Huma Abedin, did you have e-mails on the laptop and what's in them? Why wouldn't she ask her? MOOK: Well, Chris, you and I are on the same page here. I want to know what's in these e-mails, too. And Director Comey has put out a letter. It has three paragraphs. It says nothing about Huma Abedin. It says nothing about who these e-mails were to or from. He just says he has information that may be significant we don't even know if it is. You showed some of his testimony to Congress just now where they asked, "If there's significant information, would you reopen the case?" and he said, "Yes, we will take a look at it." The problem is we learned from Yahoo News last night, we don't even think he's taken a look at any of this. We don't know if anybody has. WALLACE: But again, there is at least -- there's credible reporting out there that this came from the laptop of Anthony Weiner and Huma Abedin. Why on earth wouldn't Hillary Clinton say to her closest personal aide, was there any stuff on your laptop, and what was it? MOOK: Chris, again, I appreciate your question because people want answers. There's nothing about Huma Abedin in the letter that was sent out. WALLACE: I know, but why wouldn't Clinton ask her? MOOK: Well, why wouldn't Clinton ask anybody? They could be e-mails from anybody in the world. (CROSSTALK) WALLACE: There are no reports it's anybody else except Huma Abedin. MOOK: Again, you're putting out some hypotheticals. There are other hypotheticals that have been put out there. WALLACE: It's on t front page of every paper, including, I suspect, although I haven’t read it, Yahoo News. MOOK: Well, again, I appreciate what you're asking because everybody wants to have the answer. And there's a person who can answer this question. And that's Director Comey. He should -- he should put out more information, get everything on the table. Release the information itself. At least provide more detail about what he's talking about. But ten days out from an election, he's come under intense criticism from former Justice Department officials who said this is entirely a breach of protocol. There's a standard that, you know, six weeks from an election, you don't put out insinuation like this. And all that's in that letter is innuendo. </blockquote>
