So it seemed more of a thing to protect his own ass to me. I think he's a douche as does everyone in the FBI, however, in that moment with the discovery of new evidence (the laptop and all of its 1000s of emails) he was in a pretty weird spot... which seemed to be lose/lose for him.

And to say "Comey threw the election for Trump" again ignores voters, what they voted for,... Hillary, her low trust ratings by her base, her inability to connect with voters with a message (jobs, border, economy, trade etc). Hillary failed on her own. And not only failed, but failed against what is little more than a rich circus clown
... and Hillary Clinton still won the popular vote by over 3 million votes.

Usually the FBI classifies letters to congressional subcommittees regarding classified investigations.

Comey intentionally did not classify that letter knowing the Republicans on the subcommittee could legally go public with it.
