Last week was a bad one for Hillary Clinton’s consigliere, Sidney Blumenthal, who was touring the country to sell his new biography about Abraham Lincoln.

Instead of talking about “Honest Abe,” the mysterious former journalist was forced to focus much of his attention on his relationship with the former secretary of state.

Such was the case at a book tour event held at the Brattle Theatre in Cambridge, Mass. on Friday. A tracker with America Rising, a group opposing the Democratic candidate, asked Blumenthal if he would continue advising Clinton is she is elected to the White House. He was also quizzed about whether he agreed with the Obama administration that he would have been a political liability if hired at the State Department.

The former Bill Clinton White House aide refused to answer either inquiry, instead asking the tracker who he worked for.

Later, during the book signing portion of Friday’s event, the tracker asked Blumenthal who is closer to Clinton, him or her “body woman,” Huma Abedin.

Blumenthal declined to answer that question, too, and asked the tracker again who he worked for.

“You have to tell me who’s paying you,” he says in the video, which was shared exclusively with The Daily Caller.
