Yeah, that was particularly galling. During the 1992 campaign, any comment or criticism about Hillary was strictly off-limits, because "She's not the candidate." Then, once Bill was in office, she's given the job of writing important legislation for the office of the President. Now, she wants to tacitly imply that her experience as First Lady counts toward her own Presidential run.
And now, I suppose, we're not meant to make any comment or criticism about Bill, since "He's not the candidate."
This kind of tag-team politics is silly, and it frustrates me that so many people seem to just accept it.
