So...When the scandalous news comes out..
about Billy boy and his escaped pecker, AGAIN! times infinity...do you think it will really hurt The Hill, OR beckon a lot of women supporters to stand behind her as the woman that has been wronged? OR....maybe it will make her fall out of the way, so that others actually have a chance at the nomination? Which way will the breaking NYT story ( that won't be sat on for long) blow? ....Thoughts?

1. Are we sure this is a true story? At this point I'm more interested in Rudy's bootygate
after all if that is true he used tax payer money to taxi his mistress around NYC.

3. Bill can put his pecker wherever he wants to (or not)...
It doesn't make me like Hillary either way.

5. PROVIDED IT'S ACTUALLY TRUE, it runs the risk of turning her entire campaign...
...into the exact thing a lot of people were afraid her campaign might turn into.

The 90s.

That'll be hard to overcome, especially since the bigger names in TV "news" today made their bones during Whitewater, Monica and the impeachment.

And they are lazy, disinterested people. What do you think they'll want to talk about to earn their paycheck? Policy stuff? Deep questions? Serious analysis?

Hm.

Again, PROVIDED IT'S ACTUALLY TRUE. I've seen no proof, nor even a hard story, to say it is.

17. Why does it have to be true for the media to run with it?
Bill Clinton has confessed to adultery several times in the past, the media will have even less inclination to "investigate" the veracity of the charges before spending 24/7 obsessing about "what Bill Clinton's latest indiscretion means"?

IMNSHO, the minute one of the major news orgs runs with this story, the rest will stampede to reprint it.

19. You're right! It doesn't even have to be true with today's
"journalists".

The MSM is the same bunch of thoughtless numbskulls that heard and reported the "rumors" that 10 of 11 of those West Virgina coal miners were found alive.

7. Scandal? What Scandal?
Even if a story about Bill comes out, the news would be so last century.

Really, does anyone (besides a few repressed, sexless Republicans) really care how much sex Bill Clinton has, and with whom??

10. The story that ol' Bill is still a horny dog
with a gal in every port-STILL, and in the present! I could care less about his sex life...it's what the media thinks! You know BORED AMERICA! And the media has a big play in how things turn out as we all know!

15. So What?
Good for Bill.

He's good looking.

He also is able to talk directly to the American people.

No one except a few sexless, repressed Republicans cares at all about Bill Clinton's sex life.

22. YOU couldn't care less about his sex life?
Pull the other one. You put an unsourced, unlinked rumor on DU and claim to be disinterested?

Are you sure this isn't your personal fantasy life?

9. We will be mired in manufactured scandals.
I remember it well.

Still better than Bush rule, but we have more choices than this.

21. But, there will be manufactured scandals about
any of the candidates the Dems nominate. That's what repukes do. That's what the word "republican" means!

23. We will be mired in scandals no matter who is in there. There will be scandals,
concocted threats, pushed issues like gay marriage or war on christmas, regurgitated headlines about 9/11, new society scapegoats, bad immigration stories, Osama tapes, stories about secular progressives ruining our way of life, stories about how well Iraq is going, the return of a handful of troops, etc...

24. Having said that, I think some candidates are easier targets than others and
Hillary is one of them...lots of ammunition and sound bite material.

14. I wasn't thinking about it until you told me not to think about it.
Pass the amnesia pills and for the love of God, PLEASE do not tell me not to think about any of the Republican candidate's peckers. ;-)

13. True or not
It makes me feel sympathetic toward her, and I don't particularly care for her.

More than sympathetic, actually, it shows she and Bill are adults and can overcome adversity, remain friends and do what needs to be done.

27. If True - It Shows That HRC Has Bad Judgement In Forgiving Him....
the first time. She would not be looked upon as - poor wronged Hillary. She would be looked at as - poor WRONG Hillary.

If she has bad judgements in something like her own personal life - what would she do as president?

That's how I would spin it if I were the Repug nominee.
