A column urging Bill and Hillary Clinton to leave the national stage so that Democratic presidential candidates won't have to labor in their shadow has apparently been spiked by news editors who regularly carry Hillary's Creators Syndicate essays.
A LexisNexis search Friday morning turned up not a single published version of the Estrich screed, in which the liberal Democratic operative implored the Clintons to "shut up" and predicted that Hillary would never be president.
Still, millions of Americans learned of Estrich's analysis from Rush Limbaugh, who spent several segments of his top-rated radio talk show on Thursday discussing Estrich's bombshell remarks.
Fox News Channel hosts Sean Hannity and John Gibson also gave Estrich, a regular contributor to the top-rated cable news channel, TV airtime to explain her concerns.
By Friday, after it became apparent that no mainstream print outlet had carried the controversial column, Limbaugh publicly protested the media censorship.
"Nowhere on the Internet can you find Susan Estrich's column from yesterday," he told his audience. "Now, that just doesn't happen - a column to be spiked everywhere."
"I'm sure Susan's still scratching her head," Limbaugh added. "What have I got to do? I write a column, I send it out and on this one column, everybody that runs it spikes it."

She will never be president.
She thought she was so smart that she'd ride billy boy into the White House, but it's her ride that will forever stain her, that and her own actions getting there......
Even my 65 year old aunt has recently emailed me about the clinton body count.......that means it's mainstream.....
So, I await the announcement that Susan felt so remorseful for telling lies about our "sainted" FORMER black house guests that she decided to clean the slate and committ arkancide.....
It won't be long......
And then, when it's painfully clear how evil these two are, what will John Ashcroft do? Will he have the guts to indict them?
This may be disingenious. My local paper publishes George Will and other conservatives. A Lexis/Nexis search will not turn up that article. Same for many other small papers.
I went to the syndicators web site. This is only the second article she has published for them. The other was May 9th. What we don't know is how many papers subscribe to her articles, how many small papers make up that total subscription and how long the article can be published. The release from the syndicator said from Wednesday forward.
that may also hold some weight. My regional paper publishes Dowd, Walter Williams, Will and others, often several days after they have been released.
Lack of a hit for a Lexis/Nexis hit may be a fact, yet it may still be meaningless.
Yeah, but there's only so much vaseline you can put on a camera lens...
They are mean and nasty. It's the beaky look with the wideset eyes that reminded me of her, though.
She's right on both counts.
The Clintons are destroying the democrat party with their too far left of center politics, criminalism, obvious dishonesty and arrogance.
If you want to hang the implosion of the democrats on anyone or run someone out of town on a rail because they lost the house and senate, look no further than Bill and Hill. All the blame can be laid squarely at their feet.
Further, feel free pre-emptively blame them for losing the White House in 2004.. because those are good odds at this point.
