New Books on Hillary Clinton Indeed a “Big Yawn”

Watching Carl Bernstein discuss with CNN’s Wolf Blitzer his new book about Hillary Clinton, “A Woman in Charge,” the discussion this morning was solely a rehash of past foibles, mistakes and indulgences on the part of the Clintons.

When one hears the name “Betsy Wright” bandied about — and all of her twenty plusHillary2
years of Clinton machinations rehashed, as was the case with Blitzer, it’s time to zone out of that discussion. It’s basically background noise.

It also doesn’t really appear the new book by Jeff Gerth and Don Van Natta has broken much new ground either, and their gig on Meet the Press today was dullsville. Gerth is a helluva reporter, but this book seems ro be just a means of capitalizing financially on Hillary’s run for President. Why not?

The Clinton campaign has described these books as “A big yawn”… That’s pretty much the case.

On a 1-10 damage scale, it’s barely a one.
