In a few months voters in Iowa will go to their caucus meetings and voters in New Hampshire will go to the primary voting booths.
In the meantime, you will see more of Hillary Clinton than Bill does.
Will someone do me the kind favor of asking Hillary about the following, which I found in The Hill?
Republicans plan to seize on an allegation from the 1992 presidential campaign to tarnish Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) on the red-hot issue of government surveillance.
Government surveillance will be at the forefront of the political debate this fall as congressional Democrats and President Bush square off over legislation allowing electronic spying on U.S. soil without a warrant.
Republicans are focusing on an allegation in a recent book by two Pulitzer Prize-winning reporters, which suggests Clinton listened to a secretly recorded conversation between political opponents.
In their book about Clinton’s rise to power, Her Way, Don Van Natta Jr., an investigative reporter at The New York Times, and Jeff Gerth, who spent 30 years as an investigative reporter at the paper, wrote: “Hillary’s defense activities ranged from the inspirational to the microscopic to the down and dirty. She received memos about the status of various press inquiries; she vetted senior campaign aides; and she listened to a secretly recorded audiotape of a phone conversation of Clinton critics plotting their next attack.
“The tape contained discussions of another woman who might surface with allegations about an affair with Bill,” Gerth and Van Natta wrote in reference to Clinton’s husband, former President Bill Clinton. “Bill’s supporters monitored frequencies used by cell phones, and the tape was made during one of those monitoring sessions.”
A GOP official said, “Hillary Clinton’s campaign hypocrisy continues to know no bounds. It is rather unbelievable that Clinton would listen in to conversations being conducted by political opponents, but refuse to allow our intelligence agencies to listen in to conversations being conducted by terrorists as they plot and plan to kill us. Team Clinton can expect to see and hear this over and over again over the course of the next year.”
Gerth told The Hill that he learned of the incident in 2006 when he interviewed a former campaign aide present at the tape playing. He has not revealed the aide’s identity. Clinton’s campaign has not disputed any facts reported in the final version of his book, which became public this spring, he said.
“It hasn’t been challenged,” said Gerth. “There hasn’t been one fact in the book that’s been challenged.”
I’d really like to hear the answer as to why it’s OK to monitor cell phone frequencies illegally for political gain and it’s not OK to monitor terrorists legally.
I’m sure she must have an excellent response already ready. She always does and she excels in pulling the wool over people’s eyes.
Try to surprise her with the question and let us know what she says.

If she is asked, you are right, she will have a prepared answer and the press will do what they always do..ignore the whole situation.
Much of the weight of winning this presidential election is going to fall on those not in the MSM. If Republicans can become energized and get out the vote then we have a decent chance. The candidates will be villifeid in debates just like Rick Lazio was if they confront her just as Rick Lazio was so they will have to find other venues to get their message out.
Wouldn’t it be nice for just one day to lead such a charmed life?

We’ll ask our “spy” to use a video camera with a boom mic so we can get it on YouTube.

Is that how it’s going to work?
Not bad, not bad at all.
