Jon Karl: Hillary Clinton Could Have Fewer Primary Debates Than Testimonies Before Congress

Congress is set to launch an investigation to get to the bottom of the Clinton email scandal, certainly unwelcome news for the soon to be presidential candidate.

Speaker of the House John Boehner is believed to announce a new probe into Clinton’s private server at home and her confession that 31,000 emails were deleted because Clinton’s lawyers and staff deemed them to be personal.

"She will be asked to testify not once, but twice before Congress, once on the emails, a second time on Benghazi—in other words, you could have more appearances before Congress from her during her primary campaign than you have presidential debates," Karl said.

Clinton is likely to announce her official candidacy in the beginning of April, weeks earlier than previously expected. She will have to suffer through distracting investigations that will cloud her campaign for months.
