Clinton was seen carrying a bag of books when customers at the independent Katonah bookstore recognized him and asked about the election.

Instead of rushing out, Clinton held court and eagerly fielded questions.

One of the eyewitnesses happened to be the editor of the local Bedford-Pound Ridge Record Review, who published Clinton’s comments in an editorial.

“James Comey cost her the election,” Clinton reportedly said, referring to the FBI director’s statements in the final days of the campaign about the agency’s probe of Hillary’s use of a private email server.

Did Comey keep her from campaigning in WI, OH, and MI?

Comey had better stake out a South Seas island that he can live on under an assumed name, cause the Clintons and their followers are going to make his life an absolute living Hell.

I agree. He should have had her charged, prosecuted and found guilty and imprisoned.

It’s quite pathetic to see Bill Clinton rolling in the mud with the rest of them. He could have stayed a bit clear and kept a semblance of his once-great legacy. But no, mud-pig til the end. Heck of a way to go out, Bill.

I think is was her UNTRUSTOWORTHINESS.

Clearly it wasn’t her superior ground game the media kept hyping as her ace in the hole.

Right, Bill. Blame anybody and everybody except your wife. It’s over. Move on and grow a pair.

Hillary cost Hillary the election.

She literally frightened voters into voting for her opponent.

And, might Bill himself actually be scared of her as well?

No, Comey cost the Dems, not her. Had she been indicted as she should have been, another candidate might have well won the election.

The former two-term president made the bitter claim while shopping in a local Westchester bookstore.

Blaming someone else comes as no surprise.

It would be a far more interesting thread to speculate about what he's reading.
