Chelsea Clinton was startled by a question about Monica Lewinsky at the end of a Q&A session at Butler University Tuesday.
A student asked whether Hillary Clinton's credibility was damaged during the Lewinsky scandal.
"Wow, you're the first person actually that's ever asked me that question in the, I don't know maybe, 70 college campuses I've now been to, and I do not think that is any of your business," she responded, generating applause from the crowd at the campaign event.

Good for her.
1The question was about Hillary's judgment. She claimed the whole incident was part of a "vast right wing conspiracy". The question is valid, and should be addressed. I can understand Chelsea’s response however, as a daughter, but it comes with the territory called campaigning. You can be sure the question will keep coming up, if not in the primary, it will come up if Hilary gets the nomination. Look at Governor Patterson of New York; he is putting on the table every scandal in his past on the table. No worry about “leaks”, “cover-ups” etc. Those that hated him before will continue to hate him, those who loved him before will continue to love him, but the vast middle have now been “inoculated”. To take a quote from George Bush, his response will be “when I was young and foolish, I was young and foolish”.
2Dang, I should learn to reread what I write BEFORE I hit the submit butten.
3I wonder:
If Hillary doesn't make it into the white house (or even if she does), will we see Chelsea in a couple of years going for it?
Seems she is on the pathway of a standard politics career...
4I don't think it is anyone's business. I feel for her because she has had to deal with something so embarrassing in the public light.
