The Reines email might be the second most cringe-inducing document in Washington ever. The top (so far!) prize, however, certainly goes to Clinton lawyer, advocate, and all-around flunky Lanny Davis. In September 2010 Davis sent his “dear friend Hillary” an email with the subject line “Personal – a personal favor.” What follows are two pages of over-the-top praise for the former first lady, more than a healthy dose of self-promotion on Davis’s part, several hand-wringing apologies for even bothering the great and powerful Hillary Clinton with such a terrible request, and four groveling “pleases.”
The email has to be seen to be believed…
