A Question About The Truth About Hillary

Leave aside for the moment the facts that Ed Klein's Hilliography has ridden the New York Times best-seller list for the past five weeks and has gathered mainstream conservative following inside the Beltway. I just have one question to ask the right-wing crictics of this book:

If The Truth About Hillary is such a universally panned piece of trash that can only help Mrs. Clinton by generating sympathy for her and play into the hands of the Clinton propaganda machine by reviving the old "vast right-wing conspiracy" canard, why, then, has it been the Clinton machine itself that has led the charge in trying to suppress it via media blackout?

Reflex, maybe? Or a charade? Reverse-psychology? Extreme Media pack mentality?

Or might the book be spot-on target and the Clintonoids know, and fear, it?
