WASHINGTON (AllPolitics, April 25) -- As one of the first Clinton White House refugees to write his memoirs, former Labor Secretary Robert Reich has a natural advantage.
He can produce a witty "inside" look at Clinton's first four years, as he has done, and get his version of the internecine tug of wars out before anyone else.
Going first lets Reich portray events in a way that makes him look both remarkably prescient and a voice of common sense, trying to pull Clinton away from the evil influences of people like Dick Morris and Alan Greenspan.
