Political strategist dick morris said leon panettas recent criticism of the president is a contract killing for hillary. His choice of language may be overblown Rachel Maddox deduces that claim. Leon panetta was a clinton lifer who president obama tapped to be his cia director and then secretary of defense. Since leaving the administration, leon panetta has a new job.

I think were safe on that one. Are we safe on a situation with panetta and hillary and well get to the gritty details of that. I want to first ask you about this. Were still waiting to see if Hillary Clinton will run and maybe well hear at the beginning of next year. Can she wait that long if the midterms dont turn out too well for democrats. Its a great question. Three weeks from now democrats could be feeling very jumpy and very frustrated, so what better vessel would there be for those democratic frustrations and democratic hopes than Hillary Clinton say hi im running lets do it. Theres a real possibility that that timetable gets pushed up if the democrats do badly. Are we seeing glimpse with leon panetta coming out with Harsh Criticism of president obama . They said in washington if you want a friend get a dog. Yes. Yes. Indeed. You do have to see panetta as essentially a clinton character. And a lot of democrats are turning on the president right now. His poll numbers are very low. People are nervous about the impact hell have on the election. There are a lot of democrats including the hillary camp that are distancing themselves from the president. He did serve under the Obama Administration and he did carry out you noticed that. The strategy and whatnot. How can you say one thing but have done Something Else . Well i guess its politics. That part of it is obvious but youre absolutely right. Leon panetta was urging a swift poll out in iraq. He was saying we ought to go slow going into syria. He was supporting the president in all the things that are in the book right now that hes bashing the president about. I dont know what the guy believes. I want to get to Rachel Maddows points. Do you find it interesting that panetta works as a senior counsel at beacon global strategy and the cofounder of that firm is expected to be a spokesperson for clinton should he run. Its very cozy crew. When people are out of government they have to hang out somewhere. There are these little think tanks and consulting firms. Leon panetta found a very comfortable one. Youre right its the Clinton Campaign in exile. What do we expect. Were talking about if he little reines. What will we see next with this and with panetta and hillary situation. Do you think this will go forward . Heres what its doing. Its going from a loose confederacy of people to something that is like an organized campaign. The timetable is getting shorter. The organization is getting bigger. They will be out there raising direct money pretty soon as soon as some papers are filed. Hang on tight.
