I think the public is wise to this stuff. I hope so:
Rand Paul won’t stop talking about Bill Clinton’s “predatory behavior,” and that’s quite alright with Republican National Committee chairman Reince Priebus.
Priebus said Monday on MSNBC that the Monica Lewinsky scandal is fair game when it comes to evaluating Hillary Clinton’s potential presidential bid. “I think everything’s on the table,” Priebus told Andrea Mitchell.
“I don’t see how someone just gets a free pass on anything. I mean, especially in today’s politics. So, I think we’re going to have a truckload of opposition research on Hillary Clinton and some things may be old and some things might be new. But I think everything is at stake when you’re talking about the leader of the free world and who we’re going to give the keys to run the United States of America.”
Hillary Clinton, Priebus added, “provides a lot of opportunity” for Republicans.
I think we can take it as a given that Republicans LOATHE the Clintons, despite Bill’s moderate and even conservative positions on some issues. Hillary isn’t going to win many Republican votes anyway, so opposition-research away.
The question is how enthusiastic will Democrats and leaning-Democratic “Independents” be for Hillary and the attacks on Hillary (put forward by the Republicans and echoed relentlessly by the media-entertainment-complex).
I can’t wait to see what types of “nothing burgers” Reince Priebus is going to serve up.
