Rep. Anthony Weiner, a likely 2009 mayoral candidate, is pouring his heart into Hillary Clinton's White House bid - literally. Weiner, whose district includes parts of Queens and Brooklyn, finally 'fessed that he is romancing Clinton's glamorous "body woman," Huma Abedin. Asked by The Associated Press about all the time he's spending on the road campaigning for Clinton, the 43-year-old bachelor said, "It's largely because I'm dating Huma." The whispers have been around for months, but until yesterday Weiner ducked questions about Abedin, saying his personal life was off limits. Though she posed recently for a glamorous photo spread in...

HUMILIATED Bill Clinton has ordered Hillary to ditch the beautiful campaign aide who dragged her into a lesbian love scandal, sources say. In this shocking world exclusive, political insiders tell GLOBE a berserk Bill told his wife she must choose between him or Huma Abedin, the sultry brunette whose presence at her side - day and night - sparked an explosion of gay rumors.

Huma Abedin the top confident and closest aide for Hillary Clinton is an assistant editor to an Islamic Journal called “Journal of Muslim Minority Affairs” http://www.imma.org.uk/editorialboard.htmIn fact the “Institute of Muslim Minority Affairs” and its “Journal of Muslim Minority Affairs” were founded by Huma Abedin father Syed Z. Abedin was a famous Islamic scholar but died when Huma was 17, and now both the Islamic institute and its journal are headed by her mother Saleha Mahmood Abedin also known as Saleha S Mahmood a famous Islamic scholar and deputy dean of an Islamic school in Saudi Arabia called Dar Al-Hekma...

There is no absolute certainty that Hillary will lose the nomination. Absent serious chicanery however it seems likely. That is, the hope and dream of a lifetime, the reward for decades of putting up with Bill, the penultimate female achievement, will be lost. Hillary Clinton nee Rodham, will have failed . The lying, the over billing, the sequestering , the parsing were all for naught. The quest is over. All that is left is bitter memory and the offshore corporations and bank accounts. It has been the legend since the beginning…….. The Clintons have a marriage of convenience and a...

Howard Wolfson, the Clinton campaign's communications director, today accused Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) of committing “plagiarism” in a speech in Milwaukee on Saturday night. Wolfson made the explosive charge in an interview with Politico after suggesting as much in a conference call with reporters. On the call, Wolfson said: “Sen. Obama is running on the strength of his rhetoric and the strength of his promises and, as we have seen in the last couple of days, he’s breaking his promises and his rhetoric isn’t his own.” "When an author plagiarizes from another author there is damage done to two different...

WASHINGTON - Among Billaryland's inner circle, Maggie Williams is renowned as the ultimate Hillary loyalist, fierce and unwavering in her devotion for nearly 25 years. As the First Lady's chief of staff, her office was in the West Wing, right next to Hillary's. Her title gave away the extent of her clout: assistant to the President as well as Hillary's gatekeeper and chief enforcer. Even detractors agree with her admirers that Williams would go to the mat for Hillary. A Kansas City native, Williams, 53, was a central player in the Clinton damage-control machine during the White House years. In...

Clinton's campaign manager, Patti Solis Doyle, left the position today, to be replaced by Clinton's former top White House aide, Maggie Williams. The change formalizes a shift in the campaign's power structure that began to set in after Clinton's win in New Hampshire, I've obtained a copy of Solis Doyle's email to the campaign's staff, sent about 15 minute ago: Over a year ago Hillary launched her campaign for President. Her announcement began a historic effort that has inspired millions and brought hundreds of thousands to their feet all across this nation. I have been proud to manage this campaign,...

Bill has done little to dispel the impression that he’s itching to make a comeback. When you Google the phrase “unconstitutional third term,” you get references to a rogue’s gallery of strongman leaders — Vladimir Putin, Alberto Fujimori, Olusegun Obasanjo, Islam Karimov, Hugo Chavez — who in recent years at least have flirted with the idea of holding on to power beyond statutory limits. Now the name Bill Clinton pops up, too. It may be unfair to Hillary Clinton, but the prospect of her husband’s return to the White House has inevitably become a campaign issue, and it’s beginning to...

Hillary Clinton is coming under growing pressure to be more open about the sources of her family’s wealth after she revealed that she had been forced to loan her cash-strapped campaign $5 million. Hillary Clinton's advisers 'in a state of panic' In pictures: Michelle Obama Trail Mix: Chelsea Clinton "pimped out" Critics are claiming that her husband Bill Clinton’s lucrative financial dealings since leaving the White House may expose her campaign to conflicts of interest, and are calling for her to publish the full details of her earnings and assets. advertisementSen Clinton has made more than $9 million from her...

HUMA Abedin, the traveling aide who is rarely out of Hillary Rodham Clinton's sight, has been seen with bachelor Rep. Anthony Weiner

HUMA Abedin, the traveling aide who is rarely out of Hillary Rodham Clinton's sight, has been seen with bachelor Rep. Anthony Weiner on the campaign trail. Shortly before Clinton arrived for a fund-raiser Thursday night at the Hiro club in the Meatpacking District, Abedin was spotted going into the Maritime Hotel around the corner with Weiner. If they were trying to keep their affair a secret, you'd think they'd find someplace where political reporters wouldn't be walking by.

Today's New York Post Page Six gossip column offers readers the following prima facie risible item: Not So Secret HUMA Abedin, the traveling aide who is rarely out of Hillary Rodham Clinton's sight, has been seen with bachelor Rep. Anthony Weiner on the campaign trail. Shortly before Clinton arrived for a fund-raiser Thursday night at the Hiro club in the Meatpacking District, Abedin was spotted going into the Maritime Hotel around the corner with Weiner.

You know it's that time again, election time, when politicos start invading our favorite fashion magazines. But one candidate who won't be appearing in one venerable fashion tome is Hillary Clinton who backed out of a spot in Vogue. According to WWD, Clinton was all set to appear in US Vogue during the presidential race but backed out late last fall before the photo shoot was due to take place for fear of appearing too feminine. You would think it was pretty clear Clinton has nothing against Vogue considering her traveling chief of staff Huma Abedin has been gracing the...

On the night of her primary victory, Senator Clinton credited the people of New Hampshire with helping her find her own voice... "The oil companies, the drug companies, the health insurance companies, the predatory student loan companies have had seven years of a president who stands up for them. It's time we had a president who stands up for all of you," ... It was an echo of Vice President Gore's Robert Shrum-influenced disaster of a 2000 Democratic convention speech in Los Angeles... The upside is that Mrs. Clinton is raising money from the very industries she is bashing, making...

Turns out everything–and I mean everything–you’ve heard about Hillary is true. I received a stream of emails in reply to my item yesterday about rumors of an affair between Hillary Clinton and her aide, Huma Abedin. Often email writers make wild allegations but in this case I was provided solid evidence to back up the charges. For example, Robert Morrow, who describes himself as “one of the nation’s top experts on wild Hillary and wild Bill,” told me he’d learned from experience that “every crazy rumor about the Clintons is true.” For example, Hillary’s past lovers include Webb Hubbell (“probably...

With less than two weeks to go until the kickoff of the Presidential nominating contests in Iowa, now seems to be a good time to raise an issue that has for the most part, been permitted to slip under the radar of our mainstream media. I would not even dare venturing a guess as to why this is so, but it's a nagging issue for me as an American citizen, and I would definitely appreciate an answer to this quite relevant, perhaps even crucial, question for Mrs. Clinton. Exactly, precisely, specifically, down-to-a-t, what would define your husband's access and duties...

Drudge had a headline last week that the Times of London was running a story about Huma Abedin, Hillary's lesbian lover. As if having a muslim lesbian girlfriend wasn't explosive enough, there were rumors on the internet that Abedin was an agent of Saudi intelligence. The Clintons sold us out to the Chinese, so why not the Saudis too? Who killed this story in the US? I expect the liberal media to cover up for Her Thighness, but what happened to our guys? Hannity always shoots his mouth off about being the "Stop Hillary Express"; why isn't he on this?...

There’s quite a kerfuffle on this side of the Atlantic about a report in the London Times that included the titillating detail that it was being put about that Hillary Clinton was having an affair with her personal aide Huma Abedin. Allegations of a lesbian affair were made anonymously It was all in the context of South Carolina supposedly being the “foulest swamp of electoral dirty tricks in America” but Matt Drudge picked up on the story headlined “Snarls, smears and innuendo for Hillary Clinton” and left The Times itself looking distinctly sleazy. Credit for that goes principally to its...

November 22, 2007 Snarls, smears and innuendo as attack dogs get ready for the fray Hillary Clinton and her aide, Huma Abedin Tim Reid in Columbia, South Carolina The anonymous e-mails and letters began dropping into inboxes and through front doors this summer. One claimed that Hillary Clinton was having a lesbian affair with Huma Abedin, her beautiful aide. Another online mass-mailing cautioned of the “dark secrets” of Mitt Romney’s Mormonism. A blogger claiming to support John McCain said that Rudy Giuliani's wife supported the killing of “innocent puppies”. Flyers appeared on cars accusing Barack Obama of being a Muslim...

Honeytrap? Ordinarily the sex life of politicians, like the sex life of newts, ought not to be a matter of public knowledge or interest...And the business of lesbianism need not be brought into the discussion at all. That is not the main thing. That this "deeply conservative" Muslim is her constant companion and aide is enough for alarms to go off. That is more than enough. (Hugh) It should be, but I imagine that the affair, rather than the Islam aspect, will be the focus of attention. A prominent male politician who has an affair will have the tabloids on...

Hillary Clinton's campaign team are furious that an unsubstantiated rumour of a lesbian affair with her exotic aide de camp Huma Abedin, which has been doing the rounds of 'underground' blogs and websites in recent weeks, appears to have gone mainstream after reports in foreign papers addressed the subject of dirty tricks on the US presidential campaign trail. The problem started with a report in the London Times on Thursday. 'Hillary Clinton has been accused of having an affair with Huma Abedin,' read the caption under a photograph of the two trouser-suited women (above left) striding across the tarmac to...

Now that the rumors about Hillary and her aide have hit the Times of London, Hillary will feel she cannot abandon her protégé. She instead is likely to become indignant, more determined to be seen, defiantly, with Huma Abedin on every occasion and to attack those who express the slightest, perfectly justified reservations about the perfectly plausible notion that Mrs. Clinton gets her idea of Islam, or of what Islam might be, necessarily skewed, from someone apparently full of personal charm and good looks (never to be discounted, often dangerously employed). One need only see how the personal charm of...

DON'T GO THERE: BRIT PAPER STARTS 'UGLIEST MONTH' Sun Nov 25 2007 20:45:12 ET The TIMES of London starts 'The Ugliest Month' with a full page photo takeout on Hillary Clinton and her beautiful aide. "Hillary Clinton has been accused of having an affair with Huma Abedin," reads the caption. MORE The splash stunned British readers and angered campaign insiders. "This does not even qualify as tabloid trash... it's ridiculous and reckless," a Hillary confidante explained over the weekend. The paper made no claims to knowing the truth of the relationship between Hillary and Huma, in its story headlined: "Snarls,...

Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton was said to have a lesbian relationship with her aide, Huma Abedin....... Experts say that the current campaign promises to become the dirtiest one in the history of the United States..... The best thing to do here is to ignore all the rumors. "People say a lot of things about me, so I really don’t pay any attention to it. It’s not true, but it is something that I have no control over. People will say what they want to say,” Hillary Clinton says. The rumor of Hillary Clinton’s lesbian love affairs started in August of...

Are the Clinton secret police back on patrol? It looks like they may be making a late campaign comeback. In a week-end column, Robert Novak alleged that “agents” of Hillary Clinton are “spreading the word that she has scandalous information” about Barack Obama, but decided not to use it. (How considerate of her!) Obama has come out swinging, accusing the Clinton campaign of trying to swift-boat him and demanding that Clinton either release the information or admit that there is none. The Clinton camp is shocked that anyone would ever think that it would use such tactics! Clinton campaign Communications...

A major sex scandal story involving one of the leading presidential candidates is believed to be soon published by the LA Times, Big Head DC has learned.

The Commie rag Village Voice reported last August: As I recently said on MONICA CROWLEY’s radio show, whisper campaigns are claiming that HILLARY CLINTON is GAYLE KING–ing her aide de camp, the glamorous HUMA ABEDIN, an Indian/Pakistani goddess from Kalamazoo, Michigan. In other words, Hillary may be putting Huma out there in the press and purposely making her more visible as a pre-emptive strike that amounts to her hiding in plain sight. This way, no Republican can later say, “Who is this gorgeous babe who spends so much intimate time with Hillary that the Observer called her Hill’s ‘body person’?...
