As Twitchy told you, Hillary’s loudly come out against TPP. After loudly being for it. It was a long, agonizing (read: blatantly politically motivated) decision, one she arrived at after learning a tough lesson, according to CNN senior Washington correspondent Jeff Zeleny:
The opposition to TPP from .@HillaryClinton shows that flexibility — over standing her ground — is one lesson learned from 2008.

Huh?
"flexibility" https://t.co/aTMpCIsK56

Is that what they’re calling it these days?
.@jeffzeleny yeah, go with that one I guess #ThisIsCNNhttps://t.co/TOxZT3wjlO

@jeffzeleny Spin, spin, spin. @HillaryClinton

@jeffzeleny @HillaryClinton I'm old enough to remember when this was called "flip-flopping."
— Shane Styles (@shaner5000) October 7, 2015
Yes, that's right: when Hillary does it, it's admirable flexibility, a "lesson learned." But when ROMNEY did it… https://t.co/KoyHw7uWNx

@jeffzeleny @HillaryClinton Flip flops on issues regularly show "flexibility" and are good? Did you get paid for this? Or is it "in kind"?

@jeffzeleny @HillaryClinton Guess who's going to The Clinton Foundation Ball? Jeff Zeleny has just earned a shiny invite and a pretty dress

lol some call it having no principles, being opportunistic, and weak willed, but @jeffzeleny calls it "flexibility" https://t.co/OKv0ykMywm

Seriously, though. You were just transcribing the talking points memo the Clinton campaign handed you, right? https://t.co/RB9LjLOHYE
— RBe (@RBPundit) October 7, 2015
Evidently that’s what Chuck Todd was up to as well.
@jeffzeleny Weird. @chucktodd just said the same thing.
— Streeter (@thestreeter) October 7, 2015
Pretty much:
Clinton tried consistency with Iraq vote in 2008 and that didn't turn out well. So maybe that was among lessons learned for TPP and labor
— Chuck Todd (@chucktodd) October 7, 2015
C’mon, dude. Seriously?
@chucktodd Is this seriously Chuck Todd of NBC or a faux account trying to make him look like a stupid sycophant?
— Just the Facts Ma'am (@RandolphVernon) October 7, 2015
No, it’s really him. He makes himself look like a shameless sycophant all on his own.
@chucktodd Yes, because the solution to not being able to sell discipline and consistency is to embrace being a liar.
— Remember Scalia (@Mattfobrien) October 7, 2015
@chucktodd "Clinton tried consistency". Delicious.
— Lucas (@Bob_Cock) October 7, 2015
@chucktodd That whole "consistency" narrative has been circulated, I see.
— Victoria Mitchell (@viczin1669) October 7, 2015
@chucktodd Looks like media already got playbook together on this one. "Lying shows how smart she is!" https://t.co/ZNLuxhK4Qr

Word of advice to Zeleny, Todd, and their fellow Hillary lapdogs:
Hey Political Media, please do a better job of regurgitating the Clinton Campaign talking points. You're making it too obvious.
— RBe (@RBPundit) October 7, 2015
And if that doesn’t work:
@jeffzeleny @HillaryClinton Delete your press credentials.
