Ed Klein goes to the Hill, reveals experience to K.J. Lopez

This NRO interview with author Ed Klein is a worthwhile follow up on the previous post about the new Hillary book. Corner favorite K-Lo conducts an interview that probes but never pushes, and don't even think about taking that the wrong way. For example:
NRO: Hillary has tried to position herself as a moderate. Is she? How much of the "radical" Wellesley girl is still in her?

Klein: Hillary has been a woman of the ultra-Left ever since she entered Wellesley College 40 years ago this year. She’s been consistently anti-military (despite her recent votes), pro-nationalized health care, and pro-abortion without parental consent. You can take the girl out of Wellesley, but you can’t take Wellesley out of the girl.

Lopez doesn't take it any further than that (or if she did, it's been removed from the published version), simply allowing Klein to make this accusation but provide no backing for it whatsoever.

Still, it's a useful preview for what topics the book will cover, even if it doesn't provide much in the way of substantive discussions of how those issues will play out.
