LeBoutillier says the book will reveal Hillary's struggle with New York's Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan to get his seat. Though a Democrat, Moynihan had little use for Hillary.
LeBoutillier writes:
"Seven years later - after her husband's impeachment - Hillary Clinton decided to run for Pat Moynihan's Senate seat from New York. First Lady Hillary Clinton came to ask for Senator and Mrs. Moynihan's blessing and endorsement, visiting the Senator in his Washington D.C. living room - this time at the Watergate hotel and apartment complex.
"Pat Moynihan was recuperating from recent back surgery and hadn't been up to the Hill for weeks. A longtime Democratic stalwart going all the way back to the Kennedy Administration, as well as a famous Harvard professor, author and UN Ambassador, Daniel Patrick Moynihan was already an American political legend.
"Hillary came into their living room expecting a cakewalk of an endorsement meeting. Instead, things quickly grew ugly. Both the Senator and his wife, Liz, went 'after' Hillary for her years of lies, deceptions and exaggerations. Clearly there was no love lost between the Moynihans and Hillary Rodham Clinton.
"As Liz Moynihan questioned Hillary about her repeated dishonesty, and as Hillary dodged and weaved and lied even more, Pat Moynihan could take it no longer....

i.e. the Hillary all of us have known forever.

That's just waaaay too easy.
I remember that too. In fact, after that announcement some commentator said that the look on Pat's face was like a dog getting a bath.
Judging from the title of the article, I thought maybe they had published a series of photos showing her from all angles...
I didn't realize she had a non-ugly (pretty?) side!
"Does this mean that all honest, decent DemocRATs are dead?"
All squares are rectangles, but rectangles aren't necessarily squares.
St. Daniel could not have been all that squeaky clean after that many years of being a politican - he was bound to have stepped in some ca ca along the way and Hildabeast probably had it all in writing.
" lying, manipulation, and dishonest " well... that describes most feminist.
Fastess way in the world to get charged with sexual harassment is to piss off the office lesbian
Terry Lenzner.
Umm.... that he's a Democrat?
Moynahan, last semi-honest dem.
Didn't he also coin the term 'sheets' for Robert Byrd?
Hmmmm? I thought private accounts was part of Clinton's proposal .. because I've read that Clinton wanted 5% put in the accounts, and Bush was only calling for 4%.
This breed of Democratic Party politician is a dying breed. Wellstone's funeral was a complete disgrace.
You have to ask yourself what Hillary had on Pat for him to dismiss her with such disdain but yet throw the event at his farm to endorse her. I remember that day. He looked rather glum.
I always wondered how they pulled that off too. A second instance that I well remember involved Dianne Feinstein. She was vocal in her displeasure about Bubba lying to her, yet she shut up and backed down as the impeachment progressed. Perhaps Hillary's stash of FBI records and private detective reports is formidable on all fronts.
It's too bad the idiots in New York who voted for this disgrace, didn't know all this (but what difference would it have made as Hillary is such a hero to the left)! I hope that these kinds of incidents are largely publicized so that we don't end up with a President Hillary in 2008.
Not quite. Lawrence Summers; maybe Robert Rubin, Lee Hamilton
Mudslide, you are a hoot. I'll bet Hildabeast made copies of all those raw FBI files she requested, and is probably using them for blackmail to this day.
