A quote from Kurt Eichenwald's Newsweek article about the Benghazi hearings with Hillary Clinton testifying on Wednesday:
"The historical significance of this moment can hardly be overstated, and
it seems many Republicans, Democrats and members of the media don’t
fully understand the magnitude of what is taking place. The awesome
power of government—one that allows officials to pore through almost
anything they demand and compel anyone to talk or suffer the shame of
taking the Fifth Amendment—has been unleashed for purely political
purposes. It is impossible to review what the Benghazi committee has
done as anything other than taxpayer-funded political research of the
opposing party’s leading candidate for president."
From watching about 6 hours of the testimony myself, I agree. Hillary was the clear winner. After 11 hours of testimony, even Chairman Trey Gowdy admitted that they had not come up with anything new.
