No wonder Hillary claimed to have conversations with Eleanor .. they were two peas in a pod.

At first I thought that was Helen Thomas. She had quite the fan club here on FR.

From her memoirs:
Yes, she was the most wonderful person I've ever known. And I loved her deeply! In a way you could never understand..

Eleanor's and Lorena's stories are both sad. They are classic examples of homosexuality being the consequence of dysfunctional and abusive family situations in childhood.
Not that the press would dare to report the story that way. Or even connect the dots.

This story is nothing to celebrate.
It’s a poverty that the Daily Mail thinks it is.

Eleanor goes for 200 pound lesbians? Quick, Hillary, the crystal ball’s ringing!
Hey! That is totally unfair to Secretary Clinton!
She apparently likes them slim, dark, and foreign.
