Clinton v. Lazio Debate

Harder to find than hen's teeth, I found this video of the Rick Lazio/Hillary Clinton senatorial debate, circa 2000.




I couldn't find the original un-commented-upon video anywhere else. Some are suspicious of a conspiracy afoot. I think Clinton doesn't want to have a wide review of her 2000 debate performance because it is unflattering to her: she hammered a little poofball and then won because "he invaded her personal space." It just doesn't quite read that way to me anymore.

There certainly got to be a lot more heat than light on that thread. I think you nailed it right off the bat when you said she was "taunting" him.

Thanks, Hector. You did the splendid work of finding the unedited version on the CBS website. I appreciate it.
