Who knew Hillary had such a green thumb? Another campaign plant stepped forward earlier today. ABC News reports:

One day after Democratic Sen. Hillary Clinton’s campaign confirmed that a staffer planted a question for the presidential candidate at a recent campaign stop, another person has come forward with a similar story.

Geoff Mitchell, a minister who recently moved to Hamilton, Ill., from Iowa, told ABC News that he was approached this spring by Clinton’s Iowa political director Chris Haylor to ask Clinton a question about war funding.

…Mitchell said he introduced himself to Haylor because he had heard of him before and knew that he had worked on Indiana Sen. Evan Bayh’s campaign. Before the campaign event, Haylor asked Mitchell if he would pose a specific question about Iraq. The question was about how Clinton would be tough on President Bush about funding the Iraq war, Mitchell said. The event, however, ran out of time before reaching a question-and-answer period.

…The Clinton campaign confirmed to ABC News that Clinton’s staffer and Mitchell did speak about a possible Iraq question.

“Chris Haylor and Geoff Mitchell knew each other and they started talking and the subject of Iraq came up,” Clinton spokesman Mo Elleithee said, “and Chris suggested that he ask a question about Iraq.”

Mo Elliethee, spokesman for Clinton’s campaign in Iowa, tried to downplay the story in an interview with FOX News:

“It’s not newsworthy. It’s innocent. It’s not yesterday.” That was a reference to Clinton’s campaign admitting, first to FOX News, that it planted a question on global warming at a Newton, Iowa, event on Tuesday.

In a sense, he’s right. Clintonian deception is nothing new.

It’s the admission of guilt and the eroding illusion of infallibility that are newsworthy.

Can’t wait for Hillary’s “Fact Hub” to give us the “straight scoop.”
