Clinton's Experience: Fact and Fancy

The problem for candidate Clinton is how to stop kicking herself in the leg. Although she's scored real achievements over the years, when repeating her 35-years-of-experience mantra, she pushes the facts too far.

By now, her gaffes on Tuzla, Bosnia, where her claims of "landing under sniper fire" and "running for cover" are well-known. Ditto her lines on Northern Ireland - where Nobel Peace Prize winner Lord Trimble of Lisnagarvey, Ireland, said she was "a wee bit silly" for exaggerating the part she played in bringing peace.
