If you happened to have watched the post-debate discussions last night, the first few minutes showed the candidates shaking hands with the crowd, etc. Several of the first few minutes in particular were focussed on Hillary! The woman in question (Huma) was right in the background behind Hillary, blending in like a handler should. But it was her, no doubt.
She’s in a pickle. People don’t like people like her. She can not be weak, or a victim. She can not come across as strong, and ..um..bullish. She can not be second to Bill (been there, done that, got the impeachment) So what is she? Michael Dukakis in drag?
Better you go to find out ... I wouldn’t click a link to that sewer much less seek them out.
Maybe its one of the ideas Eleanor Roosevelt gave Hillary during one of the conversations. Eleanor had a very close woman friend that would accompany her on trips, etc. but wasn’t an aide as I recall. But back then the media was much more “don’t ask, don’t tell”.
IT'S A TRAP!
I won’t go there either. But there is usually a link in chat. I’ll look.
There may be something here.
From 2001 to 2005, We, the taxpayers, paid $49,870.97 for this woman to go on at least 29 overnight trips with Hillary. All this while she was Senator. What before?
One was to Wine Festival, another to Ireland, another to infoCOM, (ring a bell!)

I saw her and thought the same thing.
How does Bill control himself around HER?!
I don’t know how you prove this, unless the two get married. Or disprove it.
You know, I’m a bit uncomfortable, but heck it is the Presidency here, and all the people in government from my town on up are in my face and know more about me than I do. So, as far as these governmentalists, these “It takes a village” socialist, welcome to the big invasive world. How do you like it, you socialist scum that take, directly and indirectly, 2/3rds of everything I make, and harass me while making it and then after tell me it is not enough?
She is an upgrade from Donna Shalala. Does America want to go back to that dysfunctional family??
Pray for W and Our Troops
bump, bump, bump
I was also thinking they had something on Rudy. Heck, maybe they do. Only I thought like Bush’s DUI, they would hold it until a few days before the election.

Why is it a trap?
I too am suspicious of a Clintonian trap, here.
Recall the rumors of an illegitimate child fathered by Impeached and Disbarred Former President Bill Clinton? As I recall, they turned out to be provably false... thus giving impeached and disbarred Clinton the all-important plausible deniability for his other (credible) sex debauchery and harassment scandals.
The fact that the LAT is allegedly involved makes this potential "news" story just plain untouchable.
Consider the sources carefully.
Hillary's association with Saul Alinsky and other Marxists and Lennonists during her formative years is a much bigger (and nicely documented) story.
If Bill gave us Janet Reno, imagine what Hillary would bring? Heck, she’s hooked up with Sandy “pants” Berger. WTF? I am getting a idea that maybe Hillary wants to sink her campaign and spend the rest of here days in the Senate with the adoring galpal.
