The Bill and Hill double shill

Here’s Joan Vennochi in today’s Boston Globe about how Bill Clinton is acting as the wink-and-a-nod frontman for Hillary’s ambitions:

Husbands and wives are free to disagree on politics. But with the Clintons, when does a policy disagreement become a strategy to straddle both sides of the issue? Should voters take Hillary Clinton's policy statements at face value? Or should they see Bill Clinton winking and conclude what he says out loud is what Hillary is really thinking?
Vennochi concludes – big surprise – that Hillary’s only true conviction is that she should be president. Everything else is malleable to the moment.
