Then again, would the FBI trust his testimony? I guess it's covered by spousal privilege anyway. He doesn't have to testify unless he wishes.

Bill Clinton, like every President, is a mixed bag. So are his alleged political gifts.

Hearing him discuss politics is a privilege. I could listen for hours. Watching him practice politics, though? Yes, he got elected twice. Yes, he was dubbed the Teflon President. However, his Vice President of two terms opted to campaign for President without him. (Whether that was a smart move or not in the opinion of DU is not the point. It was an unusual decision for Gore and his advisors to make--and it was not without reason).

The conversation with Lynch is not entirely dissimilar to his visiting polling places in Massachusetts on Super Tuesday.

Yesterday, NPR reported it as "a chance encounter on the tarmac" senz Jul 2016 #12

Chance? LOL! Leave it to NPR. merrily Jul 2016 #19

NO, seriously. Clinton was just ambling around on the tarmac and bumped into Lynch. R. Daneel Olivaw Jul 2016 #35

Nobody dubbed Clinton the Teflon President. That was Ronald Reagan. Demit Jul 2016 #20

You are mistaken. Clinton was most definitely dubbed Teflon as well. merrily Jul 2016 #21

Your cites don’t say what you think they say. Demit Jul 2016 #22
