Since Hillary supposedly lives in New York, does she know anything abouther "hometown" of Chappaqua?


It would be hilarious for reporters to ask her what her favorite store in Chappaqua is, or whether she even knows the name of the public high school there. Hint: It's not Chappaqua High School.

She served two terms in the Senate representing New York. The people of NY accepted her. And she and Bill have lived in NY since he left office 15 years ago. It's not "supposedly."

I used to live near there and both Hill & Bill frequented many of the stores in this small town...so yes she probably knows a lot about Chappaqua...

They seemed to make themselves fully part of the community. I'm quite sure she knows Chappaqua well.

in Chicago only counts if you want to be dickish.

Hillary lived in Illinois, Arkansas, Washington, DC, then New York. I find it hilarious that they make it seem she is a longer resident ANYWHERE than Bernie.

For the record, I have lived in Oregon and Alaska.

But I'm guessing he knows Burlington quite well. As mayor, he dragged the local aldermen along door to door to speak with the residents and take complaints/complements.

Bush Sr. doesn't know the price of a gallon of milk, Dukakis in a tank, Kerry in a hazmat suit. All these moment in "journalism" made for funny headlines and morning cable news snark, but no one was enlightened or better informed about the issues after reading/seeing them.
