The Truth About Hillary

John Kerry never did go after The SwiftBoat Vets for the claims they were making against Kerry. You'd think if Kerry knew those claims were false, he'd have taken them to the cleaners.
That Kerry chose to not do so, speaks volumes.

Enter Edward Klein, who pretty much lays it on the line in his new book The Truth About Hillary: What She Knew, When She Knew It, and How Far She'll Go To Become President.
Klein makes some pretty crude accusations about the night Chelsea was conceived - and the Clinton camp is, well... pissed. Drudge reports a close aide of Hillary's was quoted as saying, "Mrs. Clinton told me she would considering suing him for outright libel," and "This is the right wing attack machine on crack!"

We shall see...

Klein either is telling the truth - and ought to be able to prove his claims, or he is lying - and Hillary ought to be able to nail him for libel.

Klein, however, is an unlikely member of the "right wing attack machine." He is the former editor of Newsweek, former editor-in-chief of The New York Times Magazine, and is a frequent contributor to Vanity Fair and Parade magazines. These aren't exactly bastions of right-wing attack media..

It's going to get interesting...
