" The memorandum suggests that Hillary Clinton "use classic opposition research" to attack those who were excluded by the Clinton Administration from Task Force deliberations and to "expose lifestyles, tactics and motives of lobbyists" in order to deflect criticism. Senator Rockefeller also suggested news organizations "are anxious and willing to receive guidance [from the Clinton Administration] on how to time and shape their [news] coverage.""
"These documents paint a disturbing picture of how Hillary Clinton and the Clinton administration approached health care reform - secrecy, smears, and the misuse of government computers to track private and political information on citizens," said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. "There are millions more documents that the Library has yet to release. The Clintons continue to play games and pretend they have nothing to do with this delay. The Clintons should get out of the way and authorize the release of these records now."
There should be a congressional investigation on at least two fronts. What about spying on people by the Clintons and what about collusion with the press. Both are very, very serious matters and should be on the front page in large headlines, but of course we won't see it.
Many of us have seen enough out of these people and wish they would go back to Arkansas.
No response after a day. I am not surprised, and it proves again that the Dems don't care much about corruption. The drumbeat about cleaning up Washington by Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, and her gang was nothing more than politics, as exemplified by the lack of interest by the predominantly liberal A2K, because there is little or no interest in regard to this news.
Democrats seem to prefer information on healthcare related issues come from Michael Moore.
There's been a fair amount of Hillary-trashing from the left here, but only as it relates to her dirty tricks and corruption against Obama.
That will all disappear and the love-fest will resume if she wins the nomination. Of course, they'll all have their excuses.
I wouldn't bet your retirement savings on that.

All it shows is that a lot of people were busy with helping to get the vote out and observing election results as they came in while participating in discussions in already existing threads.
As to the substance in the article, it isn't anything we don't already know about and there are many calls for investigation.
People do know about this, but what is so frustrating is the fact that this type of stuff is a major abuse of power, and also a major problem with collusion by the press. The Clintons have gotten away with stuff far worse than Watergate, but nothing happens. It is very frustrating. At least it is refreshing to see a few Democrats, as yourself, working for someone within your party to defeat them. I wish you success.
