Private papers of Hilary Clinton confidant. The newly released diary and documents shed new light on Clinton's thinking during what may have been the lowest point ever White House years the Monica Lewinsky affair. And ABC's John Carls has the details.
For decades, Dianna Blair kept the diary chronically in great detail her close friendship with former first lady Hilary Clinton right up until Blair's death in 2000 but remained under seal for years and was reported for the first time Monday by the conservative website Washington Free Beacon. Blair's diary portrays Mrs. Clinton as a hard-nose political operative who is in despair nobody in the White House is tough and mean enough. The papers describe personal conversations Blair writes that she had with Mrs. Clinton during her time in the White House, offering new insight into Hilary Clinton's mindset immediately after Bill Clinton admitted having an affair with White House intern Monica Lewinsky.
Indeed I did have a relationship with Miss Lewinsky. That was not appropriate. In fact, it was wrong.
It was a lapse, Blair writes, but she says to his credit, he tried to break it off, tried to pull away, tried to manage someone who was clearly a 'narcissistic looney toon' but it was beyond control. Blair also writes about Mrs. Clinton's frustration with critics who called her too aggressive and too political. I'm a proud woman, Blair quotes Mrs. Clinton's saying in 1996, I know it confuses people when I change my hairdos. I know I should pretend not to have any opinions, but I'm not going to. I gave up my name, got contact lenses, but I'm not going to pretend to be somebody that I'm not.
All told, the papers offer a positive portray of Hilary Clinton from one of her closest friends. None of these appears to be politically damaging. And asked to comment on it, Hilary Clinton's spokesperson has simply said no comment.
