Vodka shots, Senate trips, and the 2008 campaign that might have been - Hillary Clinton shares fond memories of John McCain

Hillary Clinton recalled drinking vodka shots with John McCain during at 2004 trip to Tallinn, Estonia

'What happens in Tallinn, stays in Tallinn,' she said Clinton said it was common for McCain to invite colleagues to travel with him

She also talked about the 2008 presidential contest where she lost the Democratic nomination but McCain was the Republican nominee

Clinton: 'I thought it would have been a great campaign because we both respected each other'

She said she hopes to toast McCain with vodka soon Hillary Clinton has fond memories of traveling the world and drinking vodka shots with Senator John McCain.

That contest has become the stuff of political legends.

It took place in Tallinn, Estonia, in August 2004, when Clinton was a Democratic senator from New York traveling with McCain and other colleagues. We spent a memorable night in a hotel right on the old square doing vodka shots,' she said on CNN on Sunday.

She denied the drinking contest was her idea.

'I would not take credit for it. I think it was a mutually agreed upon venture but we used to say what happens in Tallinn, stays in Tallinn,' she laughed.

McCain recalled the trip in his final book 'The Restless Wave.'

'This was a trip that saw a pleasant evening's repast become an urban legend that recounted a vodka-drinking competition she and I are alleged to have had in Tallinn,' he wrote.

More proof he was a traitor to the party. All we can hope is they bury him quickly otherwise it is going to be mccain on TV 24/7 until they do. The left hated him in 2008. Maria Shriver got mccain to go off and show his temper after that one debate.

Apparently not, since you are blabbing about it.

Talking of vodka shots, I think ... 'two drunks meet at the bar ...'

Vodka is a favorite of the high school crowd because it is the cheapest way to get soused and possibly even laid. You’d think U.S. Senators could afford something classier like malt whiskey.

She’s probably having a moment like this:

“Bye, bye Miss American Pie
Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry
And them good ole boys were drinking whiskey and rye”

I can only imagine the bobble heads and fancy foot shuffle that was part of it.

Hillary in 2008: McCain is a sexist, racist, and wants to give tax breaks to the rich! He is literally a Nazi!!!!!!!!

Were their significant others there for a foursome? (Huma and Miz Linseed)??

Hillary Clinton has to comment on every news item - to stay in the public eye and for egotistical reasons.

My favorite TV station is the Weather Channel - and it prompted me to see if there was ever a Hurricane named Hillary - and I found this.

It seems Hilary was undone by a male hurricane - Irwin;) We need to refer to PDJT as Irwin. ;)
