The Clinton-haters are just entirely 'round-the-bend if you think this Shuster issue hurts Hillary.
NO candidate will ever hurt his or her image or chances by defending his/her family against the media.
Remember how Dukakis pretty much lost the election by NOT being outraged over the bizarre question from Bernard Shaw in the debate? Remember how much mileage Cheney got over his fake accusation that Edwards had "outed" his already-out daughter?
No, Americans like when people stand up for their families. Anybody who thinks otherwise is just so blinded by their partisanship they can't see straight.
