Opponent: Hillary was ugly

My former New York Sun colleague Ben Smith, now with the New York Observer, has today landed himself at the top of the wires across America by reporting disparaging comments by Hillary Clinton's no-chance-of-winning-in-a-trillion-years opponent, John Spencer. (Spencer has apparently been denying all day that he made these comments but, according to Ben's blog, he told a TV show tonight that he actually did say this.)

Hillary Clinton's Republican challenger is getting personal and it's not pretty: He says the senator used to be ugly - and speculates she got "millions of dollars" in plastic surgery.

"You ever see a picture of her back then? Whew," said John Spencer of Clinton's younger days.

"I don't know why Bill married her," he said of the Clintons, who celebrated their 31st anniversary this month.

Noting Hillary Clinton looks much different now, he chalked it up to "millions of dollars" of "work" - plastic surgery.

"She looks good now," he said.

Well, at least he noted the improvement.

There Ben, if you're reading this, you can claim your story went international!
