Reply #3: People don't hate the Clintons [View All]

Also, people in the DC establishment don't love the Clintons. People can only hatelove the Clintons. They profess whatever emotions they wish to convey, depending on who they have to please to keep their careers running. But whatever the topic, Beltway professionals are never able to quit obsessing about the Clintons. It's a kind of like S&M. No one actually likes getting tied up and zapped in the nuts with a cattle prod, but that doesn't mean Lawrence O'Donnell doesn't ejaculate a little every time he someone whispers "Hillary" in his ear.

I know a bit about Larry O'Donnell--West Wing developer, Beltway me-tooer, usually very smart, but then sometimes goes off on a tear, like when he decided he needed to viciously attack Mitt Romney on his religion. Being an insider, he never got called on his bigotry.
