Hi RFE! I posted a similar story from the LA Times, with a link also to a Washington Post story with a video. {Impossible these days to know if someone's posted the same story unless its the IDENTICAL one.
To my mind a big part of the hysteria in the Press comes from the unwieldy format of the election campaign. It was designed for the days of horse-drawn carriages and exclusively print media..
I made up my mind that Obama was going to win in the Iowa primary but as the months dragged by I got more and more bored. [And I'm quite good at watching lizards slee[ping for long periods of time]. I also commented to my gf at the time that the "CHANGE" message was precisely right - but that if I had to hear nothing but that for the next 9 months that would REALLY get old.
Hence the desperate need of the media to find anything that they possibly can to run with and sensationalise and the more off-the-wall the better! However ephemeral.
Brilliant that the 2 Clinton's got the focus exactly right - their legacy will be the stronger for it.
