on the lam, a wild goose chase with a bunch of emus. hey, good friday morning. hillary clinton's long awaited appearance before the house benghazi committee giving us new insights into her decision-making as secretary of state. >> it was a long day of often testy confrontations, but the fiery exchanges didn't come from clinton. they mostly came from the panel aimed at each other. >> clinton spent more than eight hours before the committee, the word e-mail mentioned nearly 300 times. and the committee has it's interviewed 54 witnesses. the committee's investigation has cost taxpayers just under $5 million. karen travers live in washington with more. what a day, good morning to you. >> reporter: what a day, good morning, reena and phillip. this was a long time coming. hillary clinton is certainly the most high-profile person to be questioned by this select

committee and faced a grilling but there was also very significant scrutiny on the questions and tone from the republicans who were warned to not overreach and to not look too political. it was a marathon day. hillary clinton on the hot seat for over eight hours. the entire hearing lasting 11 hours. right out of the gate, republican committee chairman trey gowdy telling clinton, the investigation's not about her. >> this investigation is about four people who were killed representing our country on foreign soil. it is about what happened before, during and after the attacks that killed them. >> reporter: but democrats had a different take. >> this abusive effort to derail secretary clinton's presidential campaign. >> reporter: republicans released a never before seen e-mail that clinton wrote the night of the attack addressed to diane reynolds, the name she

used for e-mails to her daughter chelsea. two of our officers were killed in benghazi by an al qaeda-like group, she wrote but that's a different position than the one the obama administration took immediately after saying it was a protest over an anti-islamic video that grew violent. gop lawmakers also focused on requests for increased security and the state department responds. >> you had two ambassadors that made several, several requests and here's basically what happened to their requests. they were torn up. >> well, that's just not true, congressman. >> reporter: throughout the long hearing, clinton was cool, deliberate, not taking any political bait from republicans. >> i would imagine i've thought more about what happened than all of you put together. i've lost more sleep than all of you put together. i have been wracking my brain about what more could have been done. >> reporter: so, after 11 hours, did we really learn anything

trey gowdy struggled to come up with something when asked after the hearing. he said he didn't think clinton's testimony was any different from her previous appearances but, phillip and reena, he said he'd have to look at the transcripts and it is very long. >> it certainly was. but politically here, what's the impact? does it hurt her run for president? >> reporter: no, this is about as good of a day as team clinton could have hoped for. no outbursts or missteps that could be used later against her in a political ad. she let the democrats on that committee go after it for her. let them get in the mud with the republicans while she sat back and at times smiled and laughed. phillip and reena i think when we look back on this period in a couple of month this two weeks with the debate, joe biden getting out of the race and yesterday's appearance, this is the period we could say she locked down the nomination. camp. karen travers live in washington, thank you.
