'We called (on) Director Comey to explain everything right away, put it all out on the table

"'It's pretty strange to put something like that out with such little information right before an election,' Clinton told supporters in Daytona Beach, Florida, where the crowd booed at the mention of Comey's letter. 'In fact, it's not just strange, it's unprecedented, and it's deeply troubling because voters deserve to get full and complete facts. So we called (on) Director Comey to explain everything right away, put it all out on the table, right?'"

(Not so unprecedented, really. Back in 1992, Bill Clinton cheered the 11th-hour indictment of Caspar Weinberger in the "Iran-Contra" probe that guaranteed his election over George H.W. Bush, crowing that it revealed a Republican "culture of corruption." See http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2016/oct/31/clintons-cheered-gop-indictment-4-days-1992-presid/ . . . or . . . http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/flashback-clinton-cheered-11th-hour-indictment-that-doomed-bush-reelection/article/2606000 .)

As an attorney, Mrs. Clinton doubtless felt safe making this bluff, since she knows full well FBI investigators and federal prosecutors are barred from releasing details of an ongoing investigation, lest they "try their case in the press" and risk prejudicing the prospective jury pool.
