Did an to one else hear Chris Mathews' comment that Jimmy Carter and Hillary Clinton

"don't like each other very much"? What, if anything, is this about?

President Carter is not exactly a gregarious person, but I don't think his reticence had anything to do with Hillary.

I remember when he was at one of the Democratic conventions and was "interviewing" Jennifer Granholm. Holy Freaking Cow! She barely got a word in, edgewise. Had I been her, I'd have just walked away. He probably would never have noticed.
