The other day on MSNBC, Chris Matthews said…
I think the Hillary appeal has always been somewhat about her mix of toughness and sympathy for her. Let's not forget, and I'll be brutal, the reason she's a US Senator, the reason she's a candidate for President, the reason she may be a front runner, is that her husband messed around. That's how she got to be a Senator from New York. We keep forgetting it. She didn't win it on her merit, she won because everybody felt, "My God, this woman stood up under humiliation, right?" That's what happened! That's how it happened.
Over dinner this evening, my 85-year-old mother said to me…
Did you hear that thing Chris Matthews said about Hillary Clinton? If I'd had him here, I would have slapped him.
I don't think she'd actually do that but I can understand why she feels that way.
