In a fawning “interview” with Hillary Clinton aired on Thursday that amounted to a campaign rally, liberal talk show host Ellen DeGeneres teed up the Democratic front-runner to brush the e-mail scandal aside: “Let's just get this out of the way. Let's talk about the emails...What?” Clinton replied: “I'm glad you asked. I used a personal email account. It was allowed by the State Department, but I should have used two different accounts. I made a mistake and I’m sorry for all the confusion that has ensued.”

Clinton added: “So I'm just, you know, I’m going to keep talking about it and answering questions.” DeGeneres assured her: “I actually don't think you need to. It's just that people keep bringing it up. They have not found a thing. They keep saying they’ve found something, but then we don’t hear anything about it. So they haven’t found anything.”
