The NDA's were signed near the beginning of the investigation, as I understand it.
Actually, it's possible the NDA was not only to prevent leaks to the press or public about a high interest case, it could have also been to prevent them from disclosing information to defendants or others with direct interest in the case. If Lynch was in the loop however, Clinton probably knew what was going on anyway.
I still believe that Comey was honestly doing what he thought was best. Sorry to be repetitive, since I have mentioned it before, but I think that Comey knew that if he recommended indictment, he would never have been able to come out with the information he revealed in the press conference. This is confirmed by Lynch's refusal to reveal information at the hearing. Lynch would have squashed all discussion of the facts after she closed the case, regardless of Comey's recommendations.
Remember Lynch said she would follow the recommendations of FBI 'AND' senior prosecutors. These prosecutors work for her, and she knew full well what they would recommend. This case was never going anywhere, just like the IRS case.
So Comey got his true conclusions out into the public domain, and he gave us many facts to work with. Now the State Department can continue their investigation, Congress can do what they can, and FOIA lawsuits that were on hold can go forward. He even gave an opening by saying that others in that situation would face administrative or other penalties.
We really need to thank Comey and stop criticizing him. He was in a difficult situation, and I think his move was genius. He wants justice. The information he revealed was damning to Hillary, and she and Lynch are furious with him. He took a big risk that he did not have to take. Then on top of it, he is condemned by the public for not indicting.

So maybe Comey felt sick to his stomach because he knew he was perhaps living on borrowed time?

Who cares? Time to move on to the traitors who are running the country, not the losers who aren't.

The problem is, she is just sloppy. While she may be one of the worse, this is most of our politicians ladies and gentlemen.

Lynch and Clinton BOTH need to be 'Locked Up'.
Ah anything to get people away from the truth. Focus on the present not the past right?
NAY, I say focus on BOTH. BOTH Hillary and Trump are puppets leading this place to ruin. This is a fact. If you're gonna prosecute one, prosecute them ALL in ON

If Clinton had won, would her supporters be clamoring to see Trump's tax returns? Obsessing over his potential conflicts of interest? Be demanding that the FBI investigate his Russian contacts? No. Trump supporters have an unhealthy obsession with Hilary Clinton that amounts to a blind hatred.
