He could still be carrying the Clinton water here. Unless he has some evidence that she was taking anti-depressants, or was seeing a psychiatrist, he's merely repeating the unsubstantiated opinion of one man, David Gergen. All Hillary has to do is say it's a lie/smear, and she gets sympathy votes...unless someone can prove it's true. Since it doesn't sound like there's evidence for it, I'd expect a backlash about this. Bernstein's smart enough to know that unsubstantiated allegations usually backfire; which leads me back to my first point that he's carrying her water.
“Unless he has some evidence that she was taking anti-depressants, or was seeing a psychiatrist, he’s merely repeating the unsubstantiated opinion of one man, David Gergen.”
That’s the first thing that occurred to me. He says himself “”I don’t know whether she was seeing a doctor or not...”. I don’t think that hearsay on this subject is going to cut it. Without some hard evidence, it might just come across as just one more attack by somebody who wants to sell books. That could ultimately add up to more points in her column.
