The “Counterproductive” former President
Promising myself I would not write about HRC for a least a week was a difficult choice as there is so much material available out there of interest.
Well, I almost made that week, but when Bill Clinton becomes the target of the Senator’s rivals and even those within her campaign, that is worth mention.
Bill Clinton was hit with caustic criticism Tuesday from his wife’s Democratic rivals, who accused the popular former president of falsely comparing questions about her candor to smears of past campaigns.
No surprise there, that’s what other contenders do. But I think Bill doesn’t get it. It isn’t a smear if you are using a candidates own words to call into question their candor and honesty.
Check out what those within the inner workings of the campaign have said about the latest words of the former President:
A senior adviser to Sen. Clinton’s campaign, speaking only on condition of anonymity, said the former president’s remarks were not part of campaign strategy and in fact were considered counterproductive by the her advisers.[Emphasis added]
Bill Clinton counterproductive, never!
This may be the first of only many missteps in the campaign of Mrs. Clinton..that is if she is aksed questions for which she has no scripted answers. I only hope between her and the former President it is enough to deny them the White House in 2008.
