A few weeks ago I argued that rightwing talk show hosts like Sean Hannity, Bill O’Reilly and Joe Scarborough could go out of business if they didn’t have Bill and Hillary to kick around. As if to confirm my point, within thirty minutes of posting that item, a producer from the O’Reilly Factor called to book me on the show. (Topic: O’Reilly’s bashing of Hillary!)

So this morning, when I noticed a tiny squib in The New York Times reporting on Bill Clinton’s remark last night at Harvard’s Kennedy School that Congress should modify the ammendment that barred him from seeking a third term, I wondered how long it would take for Hannity, O’Reilly and Scarborough to jump all over the story. Answer: by10:30 am, a producer from Hannity & Colmes was on the phone. “We’re doing a segment about Clinton’s speech last night,” he said. “Hannity wants to get all over it.”

I’m not a gambling woman, but I’d bet an awful lot that this troika of Clinton bashers will devote a large chunk of their programs tonight to this burning issue.
