Democratic presidential frontrunner Sen. Hillary Clinton is reportedly receiving advice on Iraq from an unlikely source: President Bush.
White House Chief of Staff Josh Bolten tells The Examiner's Bill Sammon that the president has been urging the New York senator and some of the other candidates not to "get yourself too locked in where you stand right now. If you end up sitting where I sit, things could change dramatically."
Can someone tell Hillary that this is not OK? Why is she even talking to Bush?
"He wants to create the conditions where a Democrat not only will have the leeway, but the obligation to see it out," Bolten tells Sammon for his new book, The Evangelical President.
Indeed. Bush is so sure that he is right on Iraq that he's willing to talk to his political rivals to keep his strategy going. What a mess.
The Clinton campaign has refused to comment. Why are they even hearing out this crazy person? If she wants to be President, she needs to come up with a new idea- not listening to the wrong ideas spouted by Bush.
