Much of this is stunt is meant to rewrite the history of the Swiftboat campaign.

Bill Clinton mentions "Swift-boating" constantly and when he does it is with spitting venom and complete (feigned) disdain. And the LSM dutifully goes along with his description of it as a pack of lies.

They need to get it into the minds of the mindless that what the Swift-boaters said had no validity - that it was slimy and despicable. Then when the truth about Herself! comes out, merely spitting out, "This is Swift-boating!" will serve to make people ignore the content. (They hope)

It worked on Joe McCarthy. Why change a winning game?

Exactly! Just like shouting "Tinfoil" or "conspiracy theorist" is used to shut down discussion of ideas that some people don't like to think about.

Bill Clinton obviously does not understand that to swiftboat someone is to reveal a politician's false claims. His wife has made many false claims that need to be revealed to the public.

Swiftboater = truthteller

Swiftboating = revealing the truth about politician
