20. Reid admitted he was the source for his quotations
and the Clintons are all alone, no longer defended by the entourage that followed them everywhere.

The only thing I get out of all the revelations in the book, which also includes Sarah Palin's messianic beliefs, is that this shows our country is in the hands of a crazy and self-serving political elites.
