CAN THIS BE? – AT 12:33 P.M. ET:   I get the sense that this story was floated by the Clinton campaign.  From Daily Caller: 

Hillary Clinton is considering retaining Loretta Lynch as Attorney General if she wins the presidency, according to a report from The New York Times.

Picking Lynch as a holdover from the Obama administration would help Clinton’s stated goal of making her cabinet gender-equal. But the choice would likely prove controversial given that Lynch is the ultimate arbiter in the Justice Department’s investigation into the potential mishandling of classified information on Clinton’s private email server.

Concerns over conflicts of interest reached new heights last week after Lynch, the first black female AG, met in secret with Bill Clinton at Phoenix’s international airport.

The conclave was held just days before investigators interrogated Hillary Clinton at FBI headquarters on Saturday.

COMMENT:  Have we really reached this point, where there is no shame or pride left?  Loretta Lynch came to office with a fine reputation.  Even Rudy Giuliani supported her.  That reputation is already sullied.  If she had any dignity, she'd immediately issue a statement saying she would not, under any circumstances, stay on as attorney general in a new administration.  Let's see if she has the sense to do so.
