Real Estate deals and the Clinton House


With all the talk about Obama's real estate dealings with his neighbor, I'm reminded of the Clinton's housing deal in New York. There was a lot of suspicion at the time but the media seems to have dropped that one.

"On "Inside Washington," gruff liberal columnist Jack Germond was the exception. He suggested Mrs. Clinton was "going to start to get a little static from the Republicans on the Terry McAuliffe putting up the $1.3 million for their house. No other Senate candidate could do that and get away with it. If that were a Republican we'd all be screaming at the press." He added that if a conservative "were getting that kind of money we'd all be saying that's illegal." In response, the pride of National Public Radio, Nina Totenberg, corrected Germond on what would be their precise pose of hypocrisy. "Well, that's not illegal. We'd all be saying it smells." By contrast, Totenberg implied, this smells like perfume."

"NY POST PAGE SIX - The last thing the Clintons want is for a Democrat from Arkansas to defeat Bush next year," says our spy about the ex-general [Clark] who is expected to announce his candidacy next month. . . Our source adds, "The Clinton master plan is for a Hillary candidacy in 2008 and they will subtly sabotage the Democratic candidate in 2004. That's why they insist on keeping their personal operative, Terry McAuliffe, in charge of the Democratic committee."
