"Everybody thought Hillary Clinton wasunbeatable, right?" McCarthy said on Fox News. "But we put together aBenghazi special committee, a select committee. What are her numbers today? Her numbers are dropping. Why? Because she's untrustable. But no one would have known any of that had happened had we not fought."
Quote:
Speaking to CNN's Wolf Blitzer on "The SituationRoom," Rep. Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, saidMcCarthy should apologize, saying the California Republican made an"absolutely inappropriate statement."
.....
Privately, Republicans were outraged by the remarks, saying the House majority leader had given Democrats unfounded ammunition toargue that the committee's investigation is squarely being driven by politics.Republicans on the committee had tried for months to keep the focus of theinquiry on the administration's handling of the attacks, avoiding getting into the ins and outs of the various aspects on the email stories.
But in one fell swoop, McCarthy undercut their strategy.
