in the same circles, political affiliation not withstanding. Bill Clinton is big buddies with Poppy Bush. Hillary got her start carrying water for Sam Walton, and their daughter is married to a hedge fund manager and former investment banker for Goldman Sacs. That's how the American political aristocracy works.
