(CNN) – Bill Clinton's former Secretary of Labor issued a blistering criticism of the former president's wife on Monday, accusing her of "not telling the truth" on Social Security and taking marching orders from her top pollster.
Reich, who has not endorsed a candidate but has written glowingly of Illinois Sen. Barack Obama in recent months, ripped Hillary Clinton for saying Sunday that Iowa voters will have a choice "between someone who talks the talk, and somebody who's walked the walk."
"I don’t get it," Reich wrote on his blog. "If there’s anyone in the race whose history shows unique courage and character, it's Barack Obama. HRC’s campaign, by contrast, is singularly lacking in conviction about anything. Her pollster, Mark Penn, has advised her to take no bold positions and continuously seek the political center, which is exactly what she’s been doing."
Reich, who calls Clinton "my old friend" in the blog post, has a long-standing relationship with the Clintons, going back to when Reich and the former President were classmates and Rhodes Scholars at Oxford in the late 1960s. He left the Clinton administration in 1997 and now teaches public policy at the University of California-Berkeley.

That’s what Mrs. Reich claimed, anyway.
Kinda shocking to hear this from a former Clinton hack. Reich is an unrepentant leftist, but for all his faults he’s never tried to hide that.
This is good news. It means we get to hear Rush talk about Robert Reishshshshshshshshshshshshshsch some more.
Its nice to see Reich stand tall on an issue.
Well, that is one thing that Hillary is committed to - socialism/marxism, with her in charge of course.
Who’s on the radio in the morning in Cleveland now?
Robert RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRReich-a said this? WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
LOL!
He was appreciative, but very short with me.
On WTAM 1100, Bob Frantz goes from 9am to 12pm and is followed by Rush. Bill Wills does the morning show until 9. I usually listen to Frantz and he’s doing a number on Hillary today.
YIKES..all new people from several years ago.
The Clintonista mental midgets.....

Hey Hillary. Put some ice on that.
“...I’d have thought the MSM would have given her a free pass.”
I think the MSM was willing to give her a free pass as long as it looked like she was the only one who could beat the Republicans. The Dems want to win above all else, and are willing to compromise everything to do so. But now, with Hillary dropping in the polls, the Dem elites have a sneakin’ suspicion that she’s not the one who can go up against the Pubbies, and they’re preparing to take her down if necessary.
Also, remember there’s no love lost between the media elites and the Clintons. The MSM have been used and abused by the Clintons for almost 20 years now, and they’re getting tired of it. Hillary is controlling and abrupt with the press, refuses to answer unscripted questions, plants her minions in the audience, and in general, makes the media look like fools. And they don’t appreciate it one little bit.
In short, the media don’t think they need her anymore. They’d rather have someone else, and they think Obama or Edwards has at least as good, if not better, chance of winning the general election.
If she wins Iowa, the media will go back to being her butt boy in the interest of winning. But if she loses, all hell is going to break loose.
If you are a lady, of course!
