Bubba Did It!

A bit ahead of schedule, aren’t they?  Shouldn’t they be dumping this information a bit later on the Friday before Memorial Day?

Everyone finally has their stories straight–it was Bill Clinton who offered “options” to Joe Sestak in hopes of convincing him to drop out of the PA primary. 

No information yet whether a position at Revlon was on the table.  Nor has anyone at the White House bothered to explain who it may have been contacting Sestak’s brother  in preparation for the “official statement” promised by the president. 

On cue, Sestak responded:  “Uh, yeah!  Clinton!  That’s the ticket!” 

Last summer, I received a phone call from President Clinton. During the course of the conversation, he expressed concern over my prospects if I were to enter the Democratic primary for U.S. Senate and the value of having me stay in the House of Representatives because of my military background. He said that White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel had spoken with him about my being on a Presidential Board while remaining in the House of Representatives. I said no. I told President Clinton that my only consideration in getting into the Senate race or not was whether it was the right thing to do for Pennsylvania working families and not any offer. The former President said he knew I’d say that, and the conversation moved on to other subjects.
