TUESDAY, MAY 3, 2005

THE CRAZIES ARE COMING: The crackpots, crazies and former criminals are coming for Hillary Clinton; Raymond Hernandez’s report in today’s New York Times makes this abundantly clear. Liberals, progressives, centrists and Democrats need to decide how they plan to approach this. But let’s make one thing clear—pressure will have to be brought to bear on the nation’s major news orgs. They can’t be allowed to channel these crazies as they did in the endless years of the Whitewater pseudo-scandals. Nor can they be allowed to conduct a war, as they did against Candidate Gore during Campaign 2000. And by the way—what do the American Prospect, the Washington Monthly and the New Republic plan to do this time? These fiery liberals ran and hid during a decade of Clinton-Gore pseudo-scandals. Trust us: The crazies are coming for Hillary Clinton. And these fiery liberals will play dumb again—unless you start assailing them now.
