Hillary’s admission of guilt

The fact that Hillary Clinton plays fast and loose with the truth is not news to anyone. Countless times in her public life, as first lady, as a senator from New York, as secretary of State and as a failed presidential candidate, she has said things that are blatantly untrue. Never, however, does she acknowledge any of these errors or deceptions. Until now. Published October 24, 2019

Those attributes appear to have helped the former vice president withstand weeks of attacks on his lengthy record in politics. But Biden’s rivals remain confident that his frequent fumbles, like the one in Des Moines, will eventually catch up to him, undermining his electability argument. (AP Photo/Charlie Neibergall)

Joe Biden strategy: Hide and seek to avoid gaffes?
