FIGHTING FOR HILLARY, FIGHTING FOR STANDARDS: As he had promised (see THE DAILY HOWLER, 4/14/05), Bill O’Reilly came out fighting last night, hammering slimeball Edward Klein for his astonishing book about Hillary Clinton (transcript segments tomorrow). He blasted Klein for his sleazy attacks, then staged a discussion with Naomi Wolf and long-time Dem consultant Kiki McLean about how Clinton should approach this astonishing book. McLean said Hillary should ignore Klein; Wolf said she should come out swinging. We’re inclined to agree with Wolf, but this is a matter which Dems should be discussing all across the land.
