Exactly — given that Hillary’s Bubba had PARDONED two of the Weatherfreaks who had actually MURDERED people, she did not dare make an issue of these associations for Obama.
btw, I got an email response from a liberal family member who has already received the new talking points memo for the left (yes, unfortunately, I have a couple of family members who do loyally subscribe to those). She compared Ayers to the “neocons” and glibly said both parties have people they need to keep at arm’s length...... so expect a lot of nonsense about “neocons” to re-surface now as the Obama-cons try to “re-frame” the whole issue about Ayers and Obama. So you see, Obama has his Ayers and President Bush had Rumsfeld and Wolfowitz, so there!!
I seem to recall there was one debate appearance where she did mention it and Obama promptly smacked her down with the presidential pardon reminder.
Still, it is remarkable she didn't pursue the thing. She is a veteran at slithering out of such traps, Obama is not. And the nation is used to Clinton's smelly acquaintances. And the people Clinton pardoned weren't close associates as Ayers and the rest were close to Obama.
