Hillary Advisor Busted for DWI in New Hampshire

Sidney BlumenthalPerhaps it was an early celebration? A senior advisor to Hillary Clinton was arrested and charged with aggravated drunken driving on the eve of the New Hampshire primary.

Nashua police say Sidney Blumenthal (seen here in the preppiest mugshot ever) was arrested early Monday morning after his car was pulled over for traveling 70 mph in a 30 mph zone. Officers smelled alcohol and issued Blumenthal a field sobriety test, which he failed. He was then arrested. Since Sidney's car traveled at such a high rate of speed, he was given an aggravated DWI. Now he's got some aggravation!

Blumenthal is a former White House advisor to President Bill Clinton, and is now working for Hillary as an unpaid advisor. He will be arraigned later this month. Note to Hillary: he might not be available for the South Carolina primary!

121. REPUBLICANS ARE HATEFULLY DISGUSTING. HIPOCRITES, LIARS LIKE THEIR ROLE MODEL GEORGE BUSH!

122. What a smug, smiling and 'cat that swallowed the canary' booking photo. What a weird bunch of Clinton camp advisers and strange campaign strategy. Hillary's fake crying does not fool me at all--probably the best campaign ploy though so far. Her Obama bashing back fired on her. I think I will consider moving to Canada if I have to see 4 years more of the Clinton's in the White House. May heaven help us all.

123. No nonnie, I have friends in Canada, although I agree every Republican should leave the country, not Canada though. It will take 16 years for Democrates to have a chance of fixing the mess we will be left to clean up.

124. OMG is he wearing makeup? Seriously though, don't you think by now politicians, their staff and their families would know that they are under microscope right now? What a dumbass!

126. The first of many scandals for Mrs. Clinton, I'm sure!!! I'm all for a woman being elected President, but NOT this one! It seems that she, her family, her advisors, etc... have no morals, values, or common sense! Now really... who would allow their husband to disgrace an entire nation by having an affair with a girl who was barely of legal age - and still stand by him??? She is not someone that I have any respect for after that!!!

130. It's wrong he did this but, come one -- Obama admits in his book that he abused coke -- a lot, and GW Bush is and was a drunk and used coke.

131. I propose adding his photo to the dictionary under the word, effete.

132. funny. if this had been Barack Obama's advisor the first and second pages wouldve been flooded with "this is why we cant have a black president" comments. It sure is funny to see how the bigots and "middle american" thinkers work.

133. You are so right on, AJ!!! And she has the philandering mayor of Los Angeles who also cheated on his wife supporting her in her effort to get the ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT VOTE and Hispanic vote. Does she really think by dragging out the USELESS CHELSEA CLINTON (who stands like a dummy in the background and occasionally claps when Heil Hillary says something) that she is going to gain the youthful voters? HA HA HA, I THINK NOT! But it truly is fun to see this crooked Clinton lose it is about time.

135. Did Chelsea Clinton get dumped??? Remember when she was going to school in England and dating one or more guys? There were numerous articles and pictures of HER in The National Enquirer passed out drunk as a skunk and rumors she was pregnant and engaged. Her boyfriend probably wised up and wanted nothing whatsoever to do with the immoral Clintons who think they are royaly and entitled to whatever they want.
