Revealing new book on Clinton presidency based on secret interviews
This is a peek inside what looks will be an interesting read.

My only hope is that it doesn't stir up so much controversy as to distract us from larger, pressing issues, then again, if it's not this, cable news will find something else, right?

Teaser: Clinton tells of a near-miss international incident, when a drunk Boris Yeltsin, dressed only in his chonies, eludes his Secret Service detail at Blair House and is found outside trying to hail a cab in search of a pizza.

Also, on a much more distressing and sad note, the book will address the arguments Clinton and Gore had following his "defeat" in 2000. :(

1. Why didn't Clinton's Justice Department stop the election theft in Florida?
Surely they could have sent some Justice Department boys down to Florida to stop Jeb Bush and Katherine Harris.

2. Why didn't Clinton know that by 1998 the GOP had gained control of the nation's voting machines?
Why wasn't HIS Dem party up on these election system matters?

Why was the Dem party infrastructure allowed to collapse in so many crucial states after the 1996 election?
