Hillary, Bill and the media: The under-the-radar marriage issue

Forget about foreign policy and Fox News: Is Hillary Clinton going to face an excruciatingly personal issue in 2016?

Shes sitting on the biggest lead ever for the Democratic presidential nomination, with 73 percent support in a Washington Post/ABC poll. Shes confident enough that she sent out a funny tweet during the Super Bowl: Its so much more fun to watch FOX when someone else is being blitzed & sacked! (That garnered more than 50,000 retweets.)

She hugged President Obama a bit closer in a letter to a former Senate colleague, saying the administrations sanctions are responsible for driving Tehran to the negotiating table and that in the nuclear talks we must give diplomacy a chance to succeed.

National Journal says that since Hillary hasnt been in a political role since 2008, theres a huge gap in what we know about her views on more recent issues:

When the National Security Agency was found to be spying on foreign leaders, the former secretary of State was mum. Americans cringed recently on learning that Clinton hasn't driven a car since 1996 but can only guess at the former senator's views on fracking in New York, her home state. Her position on Obama's executive order delaying deportation of children brought to this country illegally? Who knows?

And Clinton will have to address those one by one if she runs. But the response to a segment on Sundays Media Buzz made me think there is more of an elephant in the room than I realized.

We were examining Rand Paul bringing up Monica Lewinsky on Meet the Press, and whether the senator should have resurrected Bills awful misconduct as a potential 2016 issue for his wife. While that brought Paul, who is weighing his own White House run, plenty of attention, it seemed to cast Hillary as somehow being responsible for her husbands sins. (Yes, Paul was responding to a question about something his wife had said, but he clearly chose to escalate the issue.)
