Oh heavens to Betsy Mal, don't get you hackles in a huff. I, the retired professional educator, will try to explain this to you like I used to try to with ol' Robert. Gave up with him...he just won't listen.
Your friend Barry will keep on hashing away at this non-point right up until November. He doesn't want to talk about anything having to do with his record. Simple. It's all about character assassination until then. He's good at it. Any guy who can out-dirtytrick a Clinton is a smooth operator. Reminds of Coot Rogers over in Aledo...the other one. Coot ran for Sheriff, even though he and Robert had been "reprimanded" by the Iowa Highway Patrol a few times for running Illinois liquor into Iowa for a modest profit. Now Coot was a quick old geezer, and ran his campaign never once mentioning his own record, but instead he hired a bunch of hookers up from Rock Island who swore they'd been best friends with Coots unfortunate opponent, Larry Killfish, who had never so much as smiled at a woman other than his now-angry wife, Jenetta Killfish.
