Willey account praised

Michael New reviews Kathleen Willey's book, Target: Caught in the Crosshairs of Bill and Hillary Clinton, in today's edition of FrontPage. As he points out, it is not just a rehashing of past events, but rather a story with significance for the current presidential election.

Hillary's campaign in freefall

Since Barack Obama's surprise victory in Iowa, the wheels seem to have come off of Hillary Clinton's campaign. RealClearPolitics projects Obama with an average 8% lead in New Hampshire, and Rasmussen estimates that her national lead over the Illinois senator has shrunk from 17% down to just 4%. The Drudge Report is even quoting a Clinton campaign insider as saying she may drop out of the race, explaining: "If she gets too badly embarrassed, it will really harm her. She doesn't want the Clinton brand to be damaged with back-to-back-to-back defeats."

I don't see Hillary pulling out immediately, even if she loses tomorrow's primary. The Clinton brand is synonymous with a lust for power. If you don't believe me, read Kathleen Willey's excellent book Target, which we published in November, and see to what lengths these people would go to crush someone for political gain. Read Thomas Kuiper's quote book I've Always Been a Yankees Fan, and see what kind of profile of this woman emerges from dozens and dozens of sources.

Hillary Clinton will stand down only if it becomes evident that her own party doesn't want the Clintons back in the White House. But before that happens, you better believe that the bag of dirty tricks will be opened and she will go down swinging.

Wash Times, The Hill report on Willey's book

Today's Washington Times features a profile on Target, our new book by former Democratic activist Kathleen Willey. And The Hill also published a 20 questions feature with the author.

Kathleen Willey discusses Bill and Hillary Clinton's intimidation campaign

Our new book Target: Caught in the Crosshairs of Bill and Hillary Clinton, written by Kathleen Willey, arrives in bookstores this week. The book breaks Kathleen's prolonged silence about not only Bill Clinton's assault of her in the Oval Office, but even more importantly about the terror campaign waged by Hillary and Bill's "secret police" to scare her into silence.

Kathleen gave her first interview yesterday to "Hannity & Colmes," which they have posted on their website in two clips (part one and part two). In other coverage, Art Moore at WND investigates the alleged involvement of a PI in the Clinton intimidation team as recounted in the book, and the Daily Mail speculates about the book's possible impact on Hillary's presidential campaign. And, of course, the predictable Clintonites at Media Matters flailed away, except they really don't have anything to say (except declaring their eternal love for Hillary).


Take a couple of minutes to watch Kathleen's interview. She makes an excellent point that everyone needs to know: "This is not about what happened in the oval office, this isn't about something that happened to me twelve years ago, this is about what’s happening today. This is about what Hillary Clinton is doing to women like me so that she can attain the presidency."

Has the other Hsu dropped for Hillary?

The guys over at Suitably Flip have tracked down a lot of data detailing Norman Hsu's campaign finance contributions, and -- surprise, surprise! -- much of it winds up in Hillary Clinton's pockets. How much? According to the spreadsheet they compiled, Hillary received $850,000 of the $1.97 million in donations funneled to individual candidates. She received 10 times as much as the second luckiest recipient, Andrew Cuomo.

Of course Hillary insists she knew nothing about Hsu's activities. Is it any wonder that Kathleen Willey's manuscript was stolen, the Clinton Library won't honor FOIA requests, and Hillary was so quick to embrace Fairness Doctrine 2.0?

Video about Kathleen Willey manuscript theft

We've recently posted several new videos on World Ahead's YouTube channel, including this clip of Brit Hume discussing the recent theft of Kathleen Willey's manuscript. (Note: The picture identified as Willey is actually Julie Steele. Fox News' graphics department must have gotten confused.)

Kathleen Willey manuscript stolen, blames Clinton operatives

As most of you have probably heard, a week ago World Ahead author Kathleen Willey's home was broken into, and the thief stole a copy of her manuscript while leaving electronics and other valuables untouched. The burglary has eerie similarities to the intimidation campaign aimed at Kathleen a decade ago, prompting her to assert that operatives working for Bill and Hillary Clinton were likely behind it.

News of the break-in was first reported by WND reporter Art Moore, and subsequent articles ran in the NY Post, Fox News, Kansas City Star, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, and Richmond Style. The timing of the robbery raised eyebrows, given that it happened just a few days after the book resurfaced in the media (which I blogged last week), including another item in the Post that alluded to "campaign-finance violations."

Earlier today WND ran an update by Moore revealing that David Schippers, the chief counsel for impeachment, was targeted with multiple break-ins of his house in 2000 while he was writing his book, Sellout. While no valuables were taken, the thief nabbed Schippers's manuscript notes, and he believes someone tried to hack into his computer. Shippers also tells Moore that authors Jayna Davis and Gary Aldrich found themselves in similar circumstances.
