Ron Fournier, AP’s online political editor, was in the airplane with Hillary Clinton on her trip to Bosnia and now he asks the right question:
Why wasn’t the truth good enough for Hillary Rodham Clinton?
And after a fair analysis of the embroglio concludes:
Polls show that voters wonder about Clinton’s honesty and authenticity.
The Bosnia story plays to that character issue.
As former Vice President Al Gore could tell her, once the media and voters start doubting a candidates’ integrity, every episode that fits that narrative gets blown out of proportion.
Gore never said he invented the Internet; his mistake was to place himself more centrally than warranted at the creation of the technology.
But such nuance was lost on people who voted against him in 2000
