Landlord: Clinton staff stiffed me on rent

February 08, 2008
PORTSMOUTH — Rochester physician Terry Bennett said he rented a city building to people who worked for Sen. Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign — and skipped town without paying the bill.

Making matters worse, Bennett said, the 3,000-square-foot building at 236 Union St. was left trashed. Campaign signs were left lying all over the place, he said.

...Realtor Michael Whitney said arrangements for the rental were made by Emily Walsh, who, Whitney said, corresponded with him from a Clinton campaign e-mail address. A New Hampshire woman named Emily Walsh has a blog written on Clinton's campaign Web site. She is listed on the Web site as a resident of Manchester. An Emily Walsh from Manchester has also been named a 1st Congressional District delegate for the Democratic National Convention to be held in Denver, Colo.

5. More trouble for Sen. Clinton

It is unfortunate that this was able to happen during her campaign. About that other site, well, they are both political websites so it is often the case that the same story is being discussed on both sites. Usually, DU is more civil, but it looks more and more like those days are in the past. (newer DU'ers wouldn't believe what this place was like 2001-2002! Night and day, I tellya...)
