Hillary’s “Entertainment Tonight” Campaign Strategy: Owning the Monica Story

By Debbie Schlussel
Tonight, on the 10th anniversary of Drudge breaking the Monica Lewinsky story, Hillary Rodham Cankles Clinton goes on “Entertainment Tonight,” to play “poor little me” to get the sympathy of America’s female Democratic primary voters. The promos running on TV show her saying that it’s the worst thing that ever happened to her, being cheated on by her hubby.
Will it work? Well, that depends on who the “Entertainment Tonight” viewers are. Are they merely stupid, vapid, celeb-obsessed women, or are they stupid, vapid, celeb-obsessed women who vote?

Hillary must think they are the latter, since she’s been doing a whole lot of these celeb tabloid show interviews. Most recently, she did an interview with “Access Hollywood” and told Maria Menounos that she cleans places around the house for “relaxation.” Does anyone really believe that anyone other than a minimum-wage housekeeper cleans anything in the Clinton abode? Does anyone believe Hillary actually touches cleaning fluids or that she has touched a cleaning item in decades?
Like I said, this is aimed at the vapid chick whose degree of gullibility is a ten on the Richter Scale.

Entertainment Tonight? Did they run out of Britney stories? Is Hillary being grilled by Donnie Osmond?
Clearly, the tough stuff you’d expect from a leader of the free world in the 21st century.

This could be a double-edged sword, if she overplays it. I seem to recall one recent poll that said her husband is still more popular than she is, and would defeat her in a head-to-head race for the Donkey nomination by about a 2-1 margin.

Quite the opposite! I lost all respect for Hillary when her president husband cheated and Hillary looked the other way. To Hillary, husband’s cheating did not matter when he was the president. what a cheap opportunist!

After all the denials went back and forth for a while…we then learned about “the dress” with the presidents caling card semen stain on there. Linda Tripp went through a lot of hell, which she knew would happen for daring to stand against the Clinton machine. Thank G-d that she somehow got Monica to get that dress to someone–Monica was not coming forward any other way.
Regarding the dress itself–my brother would say “never has so little meant so much to so many…” as they headed off to impeachment trial–bravo! Cankles was out there still acting as the co-victim of the attack on the “vast right wing conspiracy” to play the victim card.
I would vote an academy award for Cankles best performance of the Clinton years–the act was amazing. I am always nauseated by her act. She would make the consummate Nurse Ratched in One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest — the or bad breath librarian you hated to have to deal with when in grammar school.

Debs dahlink… I think that may be just the ONE decade since she last applied the JIF.
Though she did miss that one dress.
