I commend Judy for looking up the particulars of this interview.
Obviously it was the interviewer who, not satisfied with the answer
he got, kept pushing, until he got some controversy. And yet the
impression remains, as in Feste's case.

I feel the same way about Clinton as Rick's friend. I had a favorable
impression of her when the campaign started, but when the pressure was
on her she resorted to some nasty little games. Just to give one
