Private life: New book could set back Hillary's presidential campaign with claims that she only stayed with Bill for her own political ends
The only aspect of the sex scandal that is said to have surprised his wife was that his relationship with the White House intern lasted so long.
And she was furious that he used the Oval Office for his liaisons, according to a new book by Sally Bedell Smith, one of America's most respected biographers.
Ms Bedell Smith says in For Love Of Politics that Hillary's reaction on learning that Bill's sex sessions took place at their official residence was that her husband 'couldn't be that insane'.
The author also claims Hillary tolerated Bill's womanising – and helped to cover it up – because she believed her slick husband was essential to her own political ambitions.

Mrs Clinton could not be reached for comment.
But a friend said: 'This was always going to come out and Hillary knew that.'
There was speculation that the claims would help Barack Obama, her closest rival for the Democratic nomination.
***Yeah - the one in which she professes to be shocked at the news from Bill that the Lewinsky affair was true - the night before the grand jury testimony. She lies like a rug.***
Hitlery KNEW! And THIS is when she knew it: Steponallofus said that he told Hitlery about Bill and Monica in the oval office. Her response was that he was just monitoring a young intern about religion. Yeah SURE! She knew everything that was going on in the WH. And she knew it long before the grand jury testimony.
Hillary loved three wys....two women and Bill....Bill said “ cool, I’m all in”
AW D@MN!!! Thanks for that image! You have kept me on my diet for another day!
A lot of Clinton’s worst mistakes as President came from following Hillary’s advice, so the records could be very interesting and revealing (if they haven’t been destroyed). For example, the decision to attack at Waco, which Janet Reno pretended to be responsible for...I’d be willing to bet it was Hillary who got Bill to act. A decision like that was above Reno’s pay grade.
***The Faustian bargain....***
That’s IT! In a nutshell.
This "Hillary knew about Monica" crap should be ignored.
It's all about sex, everybody does it....was top of the news for months.
Bill Clinton was not impeached for sex in the White House.
I see a Muslim moving in the White House as a great threat to the security for our country. If this Hillary creature is elected president it will not be with my help.
I'd vote Ron Paul and I think he's bonkers.He's still 100% better than Hillary.
“If she doesn’t win, think she’ll dump him?”
If she doesn’t win it will be a victory for America and whatever happens thereafter leaves me completely cold.
***She puts up with his bimbos and she gets to the White House.***
I agree, and for that matter, Eleanor Roosevelt HAD to know about FDR’s honey, too. So, Hitlery figured the media would cover for Bill, too.
Hillary lies like a cheap watch!
All of the books coming out on Hillary are all planted by her friends. They want to lessen the effect, all with a view to next year’s election. Each may claim to be an expose’ but I do not think they are.
Very likely true, although I'm guessing that Bill would NEVER allow any incriminating evidence to exist that might soil his Legacy, which is everything to him. Perhaps I'm being overly pessimistic, but I have little hope of great, new revelations on the Clinton Crime Family.....and if anything did escape their document-scouring team, it would instantly be poo-poohed by their sycophants in the 'press' who would do anything and everything possible to keep it from seeing the light of day.
I don’t doubt that for a second.
OR, she would be married to someone like rosie-o-dounut just to stay in the limelight.
“hillary clinton is not running for president because she loves America and wants to serve it.”
You don’t say? Don’t you think that Bin Laden and every enemy of the US would like the opportunity to run for the presidency? There is no faster way to destroy the country than to be POTUS with evil designs.
You're probably quite right. We certainly can't depend upon the 'press' to discredit any such efforts, either.
“Sometimes I wonder if her hubby might pass away suddenly before the election, giving Hillary two big benefits:”
LOL, Mrs. Sink Emporer has always reminded me of Livia, wife of Augustus Caesar. Livia was big on poisoning as a political strategy.
Everyone knows Hillary knew from the beginning. Nothing new here.
It’s amazing how Hillary is sort of a combination of all the great women of history—Jezebel, Tanaquil, Messalina, Theodora, Lady Macbeth, Lucrezia Borgia, Catherine de Medicis, Marie Antoinette, Evita, Mrs. Ceasescu, Madame Mao...
I hate to ask, but...what happened to the other woman?
whatever floats your boats!
let’s help that diet
imagine Hillary butt naked bending over touching her toes
that outta be good for a week
