In all fairness, I don't agree with that. I remember that election pretty clearly, and I don't think it would have been much of an issue, no matter what she said.
She could have stated in plain language that she had become a Communist, and it would have made no difference to anyone other than dedicated conservatives.
The MSM would have buried it under a lot of excuses and poppycock, and that would have been that.
I disagree. Hillary was already very controversial in the '92 campaign season. Adding communism to the list of her flaws may have produced a different result. The country was not as firmly divided, and far leftism was definitely not normal like it is today. The news media were nowhere near what they are today, doing what they are doing for Hillary. Ultimately, Perot gave the election to Bill.
