More is being revealed about what was in those four Hillary Clinton emails that intelligence officials now say should have been marked classifie...

"The State Department has confirmed that I did not send nor receive material marked classified," Clinton told reporters Saturday while on a visit to the Iowa State Fair. "This is not about me -- they have also confirmed that."

Rather, the former secretary of state said that the classification of her emails was an interagency problem that had little to do with her.

"I think there are disputes going on among agencies about what shoulda, coulda, woulda been done back four years, five, six years ago," Clinton said. "That is something for them to work out."

One of the biggest questions at this point in the campaign is how the email scandal might shift the Democratic field. CBS News political director...

She stuck to her usual refrain, saying she was simply "repeating the facts" and "the facts are I did not send nor did I receive material marked classified."

The presidential hopeful added that the "partisan-ization" of her private email server use wasn't an issue that Iowans -- or any voters she's met with -- cared about.

"It's not anything that people talk to me about as I travel around the country," Clinton said. "It is never raised in my town halls. It is never raised in my other meetings with people."

People in Iowa are "going to want to vote for somebody that they believe will deliver results for them," she added.

CBS News learned Friday that at least one of the four emails being disputed as classified has already been released into the public domain unredacted. The State Department published the email in full during a court-mandated release of 296 Clinton emails, all relating to Libya and the 2012 Benghazi attack.

On Friday, as she lauded the benefits of social media platform Snapchat, Clinton had made light of the controversy surrounding deleted emails.

"You may have seen that I recently launched a Snapchat account," she said at a Democratic fundraiser in Iowa. "I love it. I love it. Those messages disappear all by themselves."

Hillary Clinton unleashes harshest attacks on Republicans ...

CLEAR LAKE, Iowa Hillary Rodham Clinton was in political warrior mode as she addressed Democratic activists here Friday night, delivering a fiery, rip-roaring speech designed to help quiet concerns about her weaknesses as a presidential front-runner.

Clinton took the burgeoning controversy over her private e-mail server head-on, saying probes into her correspondence as secretary of state as well as her handling of the 2012 terrorist attacks in Benghazi, Libya, are nothing short of a political witch hunt by her Republican opponents.

"Its not about Benghazi, Clinton said. And you know what, its not about e-mails or servers either. Its about politics.

Clinton vowed to fight back aggressively, saying, I wont get down in the mud with them. I wont play politics with national security or dishonor the memory of those we lost. I wont pretend this is anything other than what it is: the same old partisan games weve seen so many times before. I dont care how many super PACs and Republicans pile on. Ive been fighting for families and underdogs my entire life and Im not going to stop now.

Speaking at the Iowa State Fair, Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton says she is "very committed to supporting" regional efforts taking on the Islamic State. (Reuters)

Clintons remarks came at the Iowa Democratic Wing Ding, an event that drew four of the partys five presidential candidates (former senator Jim Webb of Virginia did not attend) to the historic Surf Ballroom in Clear Lake.

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and former Maryland governor Martin OMalley made impassioned, populist appeals that were received enthusiastically by the capacity crowd of 2,100 people. The response to former Rhode Island governor Lincoln Chafee was more muted, though he hit a number of progressive touchstones.

Clinton, the evenings first speaker, set the tone with a barnburner. Weaving sarcastic humor into her tough talk, she went after her leading Republican opponents repeatedly and by name businessman Donald Trump, former Florida governor Jeb Bush, Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker and Sen. Marco Rubio (Fla.).

Clinton cast the entire GOP field as out-of-touch and out-of-date, saying their menu of policy proposals may work in a Republican primary, but it sure doesnt work in a 21st century America.

Now I know most of the attention these days is on a certain flamboyant front-runner, Clinton said, referencing Trump. But dont let the circus distract you. If you look at their policies, most of the other candidates are just Trump without the pizzazz or the hair.

Bringing up womens health issues, she said, Mr. Trumps words are appalling, but so are the policies of other candidates. Senator Rubio brags about wanting to deny victims of rape and incest access to abortion. Governor Bush says $500 million is too much to spend on womens health. And they all want to defund Planned Parenthood.

Clinton touted her support for President Obamas nuclear agreement with Iran, saying there is simply no viable alternative to prevent Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon.

But otherwise, Clinton kept her focus on domestic policies and a sharp contrast with the Republicans. She included a nod to the African American protest movement that is playing an important role in shaping the Democratic primary race, declaring: Yes, black lives matter.

She opened her speech by making apparent light of the controversy surrounding her e-mails. Noting that she recently began a Snapchat account, Clinton quipped, I love it. Those messages disappear all by themselves. The audience responded with knowing laughter.

The three other speakers made subtle contrasts with Clinton. Chafee, a former mayor, senator and governor, said, What Im most proud of in my decades of public service is I didnt have any scandals.

Sanders, meanwhile, began his speech with an extended riff on big money in politics. He said he was determined not to have a super PAC supporting his campaign and that he wouldnt go out hustling money from the wealthiest people in the country. He said his campaign has received contributions from 350,000 Americans and the average contribution was $31.20.

Sanders laid out a liberal agenda from combating climate change to breaking up big banks to economic policies that lift up working families.

Sanders drew some of his loudest applause when he touched on issues on which he differs with Clinton. When Sanders said, No Keystone pipeline, the crowd cheered. Clinton has not taken a position on extending the pipeline. And when Sanders noted that he voted against the war in Iraq as a senator, Clinton voted for it, though she has since disavowed her vote people in the crowd chanted, Bernie! Bernie!

OMalley followed Sanders on stage and touched many of the same progressive themes. He tried to distinguish himself from the other candidates by noting that he is the only one with 15 years of executive experience, having served as mayor of Baltimore before being governor.

OMalley ticked through some of the highlights of his record in Maryland: raising the minimum wage, investing in public schools, passing tough gun-control laws, expanding voting rights, giving drivers licenses to undocumented immigrants.

Actions, not words, OMalley said, over and over again.

He closed his remarks with an assault on Wall Street. If the bank is too big to fail, too big to jail and too big to manage, then its probably too damn big, he said.

Though he has struggled to gain traction in the polls, OMalley was well received by the crowd. Yet in an illustration of the challenges for his candidacy, as he was speaking photographers trained their cameras not on the stage but on the audience, where Clinton had taken a seat to watch.

Hillary Clinton, in warrior mode in Iowa, dismisses e-mail ...

Here's the thing: Sanders is an anomaly -- which is to say -- he literally defies the rules. There are a lot of assumptions that go into making up those rules. Sanders has made a career out of challenging political norms and expectations.

The Democratic Party's single biggest worry in the run up to the 2016 presidential campaign should not be which GOP contender its nominee will face.

Despite what you read in the headlines, Hillary Clinton still has a commanding lead over Bernie Sanders nationwide, and beats Republicans in head-to-head match-ups nationwide. But here's how Hillary could lose the election, or even the nomination, if she doesn't watch out.
