Schweitzer Slams Clinton as He Mulls Bid

The Wall Street Journal says former Montana Gov. Brian Schweitzer (D) is auditioning as a possible challenger to Hillary Clinton for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2016.

“He slams Mrs. Clinton for her ties to Wall Street, her courting of corporate campaign cash and her vote for the Iraq war as senator, a jab he delivered during a trip through Iowa in December. Such outspoken criticism of Mrs. Clinton, rare among Democrats, inspires some leaders in the party’s left wing, who are disillusioned with President Barack Obama and soured by prospects of an unchallenged Clinton candidacy in 2016.”
