Hillary & Eleanor

Monday, January 21st, 2008

When Hillary Clinton came to Dublin in 2004 fund raising,  she went shopping and purchased 3 CDs. One of the three was by Eleanor McEvoy whom Hillary had met in December 1996 when McEvoy warmed up the 80,000 strong crowd in a cold College Green before the Clintons took the stage. [the song is 'Leave Her Now' from Eleanors debut ablum]
