Why I can't vote for Hillary now

Ok, Gil. I think I've read this column at least four or five times now.

It almost sounds like you're copying John Aravosis's AmericaBlog verbatim here.

That's Hillary snuggling up to Richard Mellon Scaife yesterday. You remember him. The super-rich leader of the vast right-wing conspiracy that Hillary complained about. He funded the Arkansas Project, which was set up to destroy Bill Clinton. You've heard of Paula Jones, Vince Foster's "murder" (as the far-right calls it), Troopergate, and Whitewater? Mellon Scaife is responsible for it all.


Because when Hillary herself first invoked the "vast right-wing conspiracy" back in the 1990s, she was pretty much talking about Scaife himself — a billionaire who, for more than 20 years, has funded a vast array of right-wing causes, including the "Arkansas Project," a series of investigations designed to damage Bill Clinton's presidency with its focus on Whitewater, Troopergate and the suicide of Vincent Foster.
