February 1, 2016 - Keene, N.H. – according to Ex-C.I.A. officer Valerie Plame, Hillary Clinton is more than just a former first lady, U.S. senator, and secretary of state. She drinks martinis. She knows how to laugh. And she has girlfriends.
“I asked a friend of hers, ‘OK, she seems swell, but does she have girlfriends?’” Plame said, looking out on a small circle of volunteers who had gathered in the Clinton campaign’s Keene headquarters for a lunchtime break from a day of canvassing and door-knocking. “I asked that question because I wanted to know the more human aspect to her. Frankly, she’s been our wallpaper for decades, and what tends to happen is that, after a while, a caricature forms.”
