Does mentioning Benghazi actually accomplish anything other than giving old white men hate boners? I thought they went to the well to many times with that on Obama and people had got tired of hearing about it.

You know what I don't think it even matters. To the average person, the thing they think of when Clinton is mentioned is going to be Benghazi. And then she has to explain it. By that point, it's already too late.

They might ask her about Vince Foster next :ohdear:

Actually it's hilarious how Hillary Clinton gave up her position as the lightning rod of the right immediately after Obama became president. It's almost as if everybody forgot the 90's after they had a black man to hate.

Then again, Clinton was investigated and harassed until he was actually impeached. Honestly, he may have had it worse than Obama. But I think the difference is that Clinton could deal with it better than Obama. He masterfully swung the shithose back on the Republicans and in the end made them look like they were the assholes for impeaching him. Despite the fact that everyone was talking about Clinton's pubic hair, sticking a cigar in Lewinsky's pussy, and basically a money shot in the oval office all over Lewinsky. Yep, that was all revealed for the public to read about and discuss during his presidency.

Obama for some reason doesn't have that skill.

Also, speaking to his control of image, he had a tennis court installed at the white house but never allowed anyone to photograph him playing tennis

This article is kind of bullshit. The definitive Roosevelt biography is a two volume piece by Edmund Morris. Roosevelt was every bit the tough guy that his image was. Not saying that he didn't control his image, but there was a lot of substance behind it.
