Not a happy guy:This was Chris Matthews this morning, while
saying:
"Let's not forget, and I'll be brutal. The reason she's a U.S. Senator, the reason she's a candidate for President, the reason she may be a front-runner, is her husband messed around. That's how she got to be Senator from New York. We keep forgetting it. She didn't win it on the merits. She won because everybody felt, "My God, this woman stood up under humiliation." Right? That's what happened. That's how it happened.
In 1998 she went to New York and campaigned for Chuck Schumer, as almost like the greiving widow of absurdity. And she did it so well, courageously. But it was about the humiliation of Bill Clinton."

Let's be brutal: Chris Matthews is where he is because he was once a big drinker and has recovered, with a lot of support from his spouse. He has this in common with George W, besides stupidity.
And his explaination for why she won 58 of 62 counties in her second election is what? What a putz!
