Twenty years ago Michael Chertoff was near the top of the Clintons' enemy list. He was the lead Republican counsel on the Senate Whitewater Committee, one of the first of many Congressional investigations into Hillary Clinton.

Clinton later cast the only vote in the Senate against him when he was nominated in 2001 to head the Justice Department's criminal division. She was also the lone no vote against Chertoff in 2003 when he was nominated to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the third circuit.

All of this though was before the Republican Party nominated Donald Trump as its presidential candidate. This has shaken the party of Reagan. Chertoff, a life long Republican, will now be voting for the Democrat in November.

Over the weekend, Chertoff -- the former secretary of Homeland Security -- told me his decision came down to national security. "I realized we spent a huge amount of time in the '90s on issues that were much less important than what was brewing in terms of terrorism," he said. For Chertoff, Clinton "has good judgment and a strategic vision how to deal with the threats that face us."

1. Hmm, a white guy that has a decent education. Seems to be a trend in those supporting HRC.

2. I guess I was wrong - I thought I saw a pic

Chertoff/trump security meeting...oh well, but I did find the names of who did attend....

The list of participants in the “Roundtable on Defeating Radical Islamic Terrorism” included: General Mike Flynn, General Keith Kellogg, Senator Jeff Sessions, Mayor Rudy Giuliani, Congressman Peter King, Rich Higgins, Congressman Lou Barletta, Congressman Chris Collins, Congressman Tom Marino, the Honorable Michael Mukasey, Andy McCarthy, Chairman Mike McCaul, Mark Krikorian, Congressman Peter Hoekstra, James Carafano, and Kiron Skinner. - Oh, and Ivanka and Kellyanne...LOL

Now, last week on Natl. TV this Collins dude (NY Dist. 27) decided to tell Hillary and the rest of us that she should have stood QUIETLY beside Bill during those difficult days in the 90's - I was so furious..I started a discussion..a rant actually - he basically said she should have been more like Mrs. Vitter...

Hey NY, will you Puleez vote this misogynistic POS out at your earliest convenience....we need to clean house ...but then, I digress...

3. Good for him...

...he really didn't have much of a case with Whitewater. Their only crime was being Democrats who weren't crooked enough to actually make fraudulent money on land deals.

4. I like people who can admit they were wrong.

"I realized we spent a huge amount of time in the '90s on issues that were much less important than what was brewing in terms of terrorism." Like trying to impeach the president because he was a Democrat.
