(73,536 posts)there is a DoJ study going on at this time. Even if people believed that Bill and Hillary are "clean as a hound's tooth," if Hillary is our nominee, these will be campaign issues. And it is not hard to imagine a person of Sidney Blumenthal's character becoming a major factor. I know the primary group of Democrats who think highly of Sidney. Still, it surprises me how many people here do.
In every election, there are three groups: those who always support you; those that always oppose you; and the undecided. I'm curious if any of the Hillary supporters here on DU -- and I admire many of them, as good and intelligent people -- appreciate the importance of this. I don't think saying it's just a right-wing attack will cut in in a general election.
