• Media chatter about other Democrats (Biden, Kerry, etc.) possibly running for the party nomination is increasing, indicating growing dissatisfaction with Ms. Clinton.

• The FBI has begun an investigation into the security of classified information in Ms. Clinton's email, indicating that the Obama Department of Justice must at least appear to be taking this matter seriously.
