Hillary Might Have To Clean This One Up Before The Election

Don’t miss Michelle Malkin’s post on all the Clintons’ bagmen. She does a nice roundup of all the recent developments on the Clinton scandal front. My favorite line is from Daily Pundit on this scandal getting bigtime media attention:

“You kidding me? A scandal that tarnishes Hillary Clinton will receive “intense media attention?” In what universe?”

The only way a Clinton scandal gets bigtime media attention is if someone else (Ken Starr, Linda Tripp, etc.) can be the villain in the story and the Clintons can be the victims.

I would not be surprised to see that pattern repeated here. It is a formula that has worked quite well for both Bill and Hillary — heck, it helped get her a Senate seat. The only exception I can recall is the coverage of the last minute pardons prior to leaving the White House. Those got some attention and it was not positive, but it only took a few weeks of staying out of the spotlight to make that one go away. Imagine if Clinton had gotten the full Delay treatment over that one.
