Right Wing going through recently published correspondence between Hillary Clinton and her close friend looking for dirt. May find less to hurt her with, and more that supporters will find admirable.

So the Washington Free Beacon published these personal papers that belonged to Diane Blair, a political science professor, and now deceased close friend of Hillary's.

This caused the conservatives to start going over the correspondence with a fine tooth comb looking for something, ANYTHING, they could use as opposition research against Hillary in 2016.

The found a few exchanges that they have been able to characterize as "ruthless" but overall there is really not much "there" there.

One of the portions that I personally found rather interesting was when Hillary finally admitted that Bill had had and inappropriate relationship with Monica Lewinsky: 

When Clinton finally admitted to the relationship after repeated denials, Hillary Clinton defended her husband in a phone call with Blair. She said her husband had made a mistake by fooling around with the “narcissistic loony toon” Lewinsky, but was driven to it in part by his political adversaries, the loneliness of the presidency, and her own failures as a wife. 

She told Blair that the affair did not include sex “within any real meaning” of the term and noted President Clinton “tried to manage” Monica after they broke up but things spiraled “beyond control.” 

Blair described the contents of the Sept. 9, 1998, phone call in a journal entry. 

“[Hillary] is not trying to excuse [Bill Clinton]; it was a huge personal lapse. And she is not taking responsibility for it,” Blair wrote. 

“But, she does say this to put his actions in context. Ever since he took office they’ve been going thru personal tragedy ([the death of] Vince [Foster], her dad, his mom) and immediately all the ugly forces started making up hateful things about them, pounding on them.” 

“They adopted strategy, public strategy, of acting as tho it didn’t bother them; had to. [Hillary] didn’t realize toll it was taking on him,” Blair continued. “She thinks she was not smart enough, not sensitive enough, not free enough of her own concerns and struggles to realize the price he was paying.”

Now remember this is a private conversation between Hillary and one of her best friends. And yet rather than to rant about what a bastard her husband was, or what a whore Monica was, she takes some of the responsibility for not being there for her husband and identifies Lewinsky as a "narcissistic looney toon," which I think most of us would find fairly accurate.

Now I am personally not a fan of women excusing their husband's infidelities and accepting the blame, but this does speak to someone who did indeed love her husband, and someone whose instinct was to protect rather than condemn.

I have said before that I do not see Bill's actions hurting Hillary in 2016, but with this revelation it may serve as the perfect rejoinder to the conservative attacks if they choose to go this route.
