Fox News ^ | 1/12/2008

Posted on 01/12/2008 9:20:47 AM PST by B Knotts

A senior adviser to Hillary Clinton was arrested in Nashua, N.H., on charges of aggravated driving while intoxicated the day before the Jan. 8 primary, according to an article Saturday in the Nashua Telegraph.

The Telegraph reported that Sidney Blumenthal was given a field sobriety test by a Nashua officer who pulled him over for going 40 miles over the 30-mph speed limit at about 12:30 a.m. Jan. 7. The officer reportedly smelled alcohol and arrested Blumenthal following the sobriety test. He refused to take a breath test.

If I only had the “challenge” of getting a “front runner” elected president, I would definitely get drunk regularly.

See my tagline for the definition of “front runner”

If you think it would be helpful, maybe you could add [Sid Blumenthal] as a parenthetical to the title of this article? I should have, but didn’t think of it until now.

Strange. Fox reported it as breaking news, as though it had just come out, but Newsweek and Nashua Telegraph both had stories about it previously, per below.

He refused to take a breath test.

Admission of guilt under most state laws.

When I took one years ago, I passed with flying colors. The JQ Laws then tried to stick me with some other charges that were thrown out.

It looks as though Mr. Blumenthal was not quite as sober as I was.

You'd never hear about it. Period! He got arrested last Sunday night and there are but a few outlets reporting it 5 and 6 days later. The Clinton's own the press. This story should have been ALL OVER THE NEWS Monday, but was buried because of the Tues. primary in NH. The MSM is in the Clinton's pockets without a doubt. What a shame this is.

Very true. Imagine if one of Romney's or Huckabee's advisors had been arrested for aggravated DWI. The MSM would be calling for their boss to drop out of the race the next day, and it would be wall-to-wall, Larry Craig-type coverage.

I did find that he had accused some of the Arkansas troopers of driving drunk. That's in the Newsweek blog post.
