IMHO I think it has really surprised the Clinton’s that they aren’t allowed to get away with what they once did. With better than 60% of American’s having access to news via the internet it makes it much harder to get eveything swept under the rug,Thank-God!
They aren't getting with it anymore because their protectors, the MSM, has chosen to side with their opponent.
It was not until Obama emerged as a formidible competitor that the media turned against her. Otherwise, the incessant lies and reprehensible tactics would still be going unremarked (or, alternatively, cheered).
We need to remember that the press has not changed its colors. They have not had an epiphany about their mistaken liberalism. Instead, they have simply chosen to back a different, younger, more glamorous horse. An even more liberal pony...
