Liar, liar...

Susan Estrich needs to stop lying to people about her friends, the Clintons. She's continuing to tell people that all Barrack Obama had to do, was pay off her debts. 20-25 million dollars was all he had to raise, and he would have had his convention all to himself. That Terry McAuliffe would have been dispatched (you remember Terry McAuliffe, he was a pretty big deal, and then Bill Clinton brought him to Africa, on a borrowed plane, which broke. They must have left him to weasel out wampum from the indigenous people there, as nobody seems to have heard from him since) to pay the debts and unite the party. What a lie. She knows why Hillary Clinton's campaign debt went unpaid. Everybody who was even a little bit aware of the the negotiations of the Michigan delegates knows why Obama hasn't paid Hillary Clinton's many bills. You remember the argument, Clinton was to get all of her delegates, and because Obama kept his agreement not to be on the ballot, even though 40% of the people who showed up to vote, followed Obama's instructions to check the uncommitted box, Obama was to receive zero delegates. That is the Clinton sense of proportion. The Clintons would have happily, although not graciously accepted them money. Bill Richardson recently had a fundraiser in New Mexico, where he's the governor, to help pay down HRC's debt. She dissed him on the stage.

The Clintons would not have behaved themselves. Obama got the best deal anybody could have gotten. Think it through, 20 million dollars is a lot of money, to me and you, but to the Clintons? They have a hundred million dollars, "his" and "hers" mansions, and a lifetime of getting free money each and every time they asked. Think it through, how much money have the Clinton collected of the past 35 years? Bill's atty. general runs? AR governors races, his two presidential terms, the money he raised to protect himself from the sexual harassment charges, the perjury and so fourth. Hillary Clinton's two (cough) senate runs, and what about the Clinton Library, or the foundation? No, the Clintons are used to collecting free money, as greedy as they are, it just isn't a thing.

What they want, need is attention. Their star has faded, and they want it resurrected. Failing a resurrection, they want the appearance of a resurrection, the illusion that they somehow remain relevant, which of course, they're not. The reason they can't stand Barrack Obama, isn't just because they're petty people who can't stand being beat, but because he personifies what the Clintons could only talk about. The best they can do is sabotage other democrats, while reminding everybody of the Clinton success. Bill Clinton was inclined to pass a cigar to somebody of the next generation, but when it came to passing the torch, he didn't. Who has been mentored by either Clinton?

People like Susan Estrich, protect and promote the Clintons, not because they're friends, because they have a relationship of mutuality. In elevating the Clintons, however falsely, she gets to maintain her place with the cool kids, showing her mother that she is pretty enough to be popular. Also, she gets to get paid. For a long time, she's been on Fox as the Clintons' champion, which made sense, but now that Fox is Clinton surrogate heavy, it just doesn't anymore.
