BenWhiteGhaziWaterGate

Listening to the incessant drumbeat of right-wing chatter over Ben Ghazi--and observing how little it seems to have done so far to discredit Hillary--I came to wonder how this current episode might compare with the (equally ineffectual?)  obsession over Whitewater back in the Bubba administration: are talk shows comparing Ben Ghazi to Whitewater?  

Answer: apparently not.  Sporadic Googling over the past few days show only a few--and these mostly random and haphazard--references drawing the parallel in cable-land.  I did, however, learn that in high school basketball, Whitewater swamped Clinton 44-28.
