It lasted so long the same reason Ken Starr's investigation lasted so long...they couldn't find anything.

In the middle of doing the exact same thing about Hillary's emails...which will find the same amount of absolutely nothing.

I love how those "fiscally responsible" Republicans are always willing to waste dollars hand over fist to do these pretend investigations, while their low information voting base continues to cheer them, while getting assraped by those they keep voting for.

Fish on...
