THE PRAIRIE EDITOR: Bigger Than Watergate?

There is a developing story about Hillary and Bill Clinton
resulting from a forthcoming book written by Peter
Schweitzer. The dimensions of this story are so far unknown
although several sources say that when the book is published
and its allegations examined, the consequences will be possibly
bigger than the now infamous story of the Watergate break-in
and its aftermath.

Typically, stories which are critical of Democratic Party figures
have been mostly ignored by the old mainstream media (led by
the New York Times and The Washington Post), but there are
indications that these venerable media institutions are taking the
book's allegations very seriously. Publication date is May 5, but
copies of the book are purportedly already in the hands of major
media outlets, and the sensational story is beginning to leak out.

Since we have not read the book, and only know its allegations
and conclusions second-hand, no commentary or analysis will be
available on this site until after the publication date. But we do
know Mr Schweitzer’s past work. He has been in the past a
respected Republican and conservative operative, speechwriter
and activist. Recently, however, his “whistleblowing” exposes have
included major figures in both major political parties.

This story might be more smoke than fire, but considering our
sources and the material already leaked, it would probably be a
very good idea for The Prairie Editor readers to seek out and
follow closely this unfolding story which could have enormous
and dramatic historical consequences.
