Except that we don't know what the e-mails contained. Do we need to see the blow by blow of her grandkid's diapers? Some have conjectured that it contained evidence of something, but at this point it's jist conjecture. It would have been very hard to pin anything on Nixon if the tapes had been erased because there would be no evidence or wrongdoing. Which is where we are with Hillary - political adversaries conjecture that there was evidence destroyed, but there's no evidence.
That said, I wouldn't put it past her. There's also no office to remove her from, so it comes down to if the GOP can make the accusation stick. Outside of the true believers, that'll be almost impossible.
Hillary would have been much wiser to have preserved the emails. The content of all the non government related emails never would have had to be released to the public, however a bipartisan committee could have gone through them and verified that none of them were government related. If she had nothing to hide, she would have been off the hook. Instead she obstructed justice by making 30,000 emails disappear. I am quite sure that if Hillary were a conservative republicans, you would be screaming from the mountain tops for her prosecution.
