In part 12 of the WikiLeaks document dump, an email from a campaign insider shows that some people are wondering if Hillary Clinton knows what planet she is on.
Last year, Clinton told an Ohio audience: “You know, I get accused of being kind of moderate and center, I plead guilty.” Over the last several months, Clinton has changed her tune and continues to self-identify as a progressive, though this changes depending on who she is talking to (SEE: OUCH: Hillary Clinton lies for 13 minutes).
But this confession of being a center moderate has longtime Clinton confidante and President of Center for American Progress Neera Tanden perplexed.
Writing in an email to Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta, she wondered why she called herself a moderate.
Podesta responded: “I pushed her on this on Sunday night. She claims she didn’t remember saying it. Not sure I believe her.”
Tanden replied:
“I mean it makes my life more difficult after telling every reporter I know she’s actually progressive but that is really the smallest of issues. It worries me more that she doesn’t seem to know what planet we are all living in at the moment.”
Most skeptical voters also wonder if Clinton knows what planet we are living on.
