He used to have a column called "the fifth element". Isn't he so cleaver? I knew then the he could never be trusted.

Morris is a pollseter, and a political consultant. If Bill believes in governing by polls, Morris supports him in that completely.

Morris knows how many people are deeply entrenched in their dislike of Hillary and that he is in a unique position to exploit that.

He has also shown himself to be rather lacking in the honorable traits, so I don't see him having a lot of qualms in working both sides here. He makes his living from one side, but maintains access (and who knows what other goodies) from the other side.

In a match-up between him and the Clintons, singularly or jointly, who do you think would be the better manipulator??
