The Clintons on a tightrope

"Mrs. Clinton may be the only Democrat in America who cannot look at Bill Clinton as an unalloyed political asset"

The New York Times today published an article "Clintons Balance Married and Public Lives," that speculates about the delicate balance of the Clinton marriage. And how the public will react to possibly electing a President with a First Man whose failings and intimate details have been repeatedly and graphically (e.g., the blue dress, the crook in the Presidential phallus) documented. The article analyzes how many days and hours the Clintons spend together over various months, both in their New York and Washington homes.

The most revelatory tidbit:


"Mr. Clinton. . .has told friends that his No. 1 priority is not to cause her any trouble. "
