http://www.cnn.com/2007/POLITICS/07/04/unpardonable.politics.ap/index.htmlThis is about the only part with which I'm not sure I entirely agree:
But Hillary Clinton will have a hard time convincing most voters that her brother-in-law would have gotten a pardon in 2001 had his name been Smith.
Clinton pardoned half the inmate population of the U.S. on that last day. Drug dealers, killers, all kinds of low-lifes. I'm sure that if her brother had been named 'Smith', he still would have had a 50-50 chance of being pardoned.
