Who says Hillary Clinton is too stiff? The Democratic presidential frontrunner was anything but at a Monday campaign stop in Reno, Nevada.
Clinton referenced an old radio ad that suggested training dogs to bark whenever a politician says something that isn't true — basically the canine version of fact-checking sites like PolitiFact.
"I'm trying to figure out how we can do that with the Republicans, you know?" Clinton said. "We need to get that dog and follow them around and every time they say things, like, 'Oh, the great recession was caused by too much regulation.'"
