I tend to agree that Comey didn't act out of personal political bias.
That said, I agree with the sentiment posted elsewhere that Comey was (over-) reacting to the ridiculous, over-the-top hyperventilation the GOP and right-wing was engaged in at the time. In essence, the GOP was working the refs, and it succeeded, in a big way, with Comey.
To me, that's the only other explanation for Comey inexplicably and single-handedly ignoring years of precedence and agency guidance in announcing the Abedin laptop investigation just days before a close presidential election (while keeping the FBI Russian investigation a top state secret).
:dunno:
