Am I surprised, to the degree this may not have been just a radio station preplanned stunt, but something calculated on Clinton’s part? Of course not.
Note of caution: Both links above come may need a bit of caution; the first comes from a right-wing website and the second from the New York Daily News. Nonetheless, T.A. Frank some of his own thoughts on the same theme at Washington Monthly.

A skeptical leftist's, or post-capitalist's, or eco-socialist's blog, including skepticism about leftism (and related things under other labels), but even more about other issues of politics. Free of duopoly and minor party ties. Also, a skeptical look at Gnu Atheism, religion, social sciences, more.
Note: Labels can help describe people but should never be used to pin them to an anthill.
