Hillary, Dem shout it out at Capitol

WASHINGTON - Sen. Hillary Clinton got into a closed-door shouting match in the Capitol yesterday with the top Democratic backer of campaign finance reform, sources told the Daily News. Clinton (D-N.Y.) faced off with Sen. Russ Feingold (D-Wis.) during a luncheon discussion of a landmark fund-raising law set to take effect Nov. 6. When Feingold dismissed warnings that senators could face legal challenges on unpredictable grounds under the new law, Clinton exploded. "Russ, live in the real world," a tight-faced Clinton shouted at Feingold, sources said.(snip)

It was also suggested that political events, like former President Bill Clinton's infamous White House coffees for big donors, could theoretically be criminalized under the new law. The coffees were investigated by Congress and the Justice Department, but no charges were filed.(snip)

Sources paraphrased Clinton as saying she spoke from experience - eight years as Bill Clinton's First Lady in a White House beset with controversy and federal investigations - when she warned that "political adversaries" would make senators' lives hell.

I must be cynical for a minute here. Do you guys think Hillary really got mad spontaneously or is she reacting to polls that say she is "too nice". Remember, her fundraising is down so maybe she is changing her public personna. Maybe to keep up with "Give 'em heck Gore". Ya think?

And my goodness, I crack up when I think of El Reno on the dance floor......I mean she will literally be on the dance FLOOR....What is she, nuts or something?...Never mind...
