Woman who accused Bill of abuse to rally against Hillary Clinton

One of the women who has accused former US President Bill Clinton of sexual assault said she has agreed to work for an anti-Clinton political group being formed by a former adviser to Republican candidate Donald Trump.
Kathleen Willey, a former White House volunteer who claims that Mr Clinton groped her in an Oval Office hallway in 1993, said she had agreed to become a paid national spokeswoman for a group being created by Roger Stone.
Mr Stone, a Republican strategist, said the group would become active should Hillary Clinton win the Democratic nomination in the 2016 race for the White House. Ms Clinton is currently the frontrunner.
“This gives me more of an opportunity to get this message out to young voters who weren’t even bo-rn or don’t even remember what happened and to the women who have suffered,” Ms Willey said. She added that she will give interviews and speeches and appear in political advertisements to ensure the accusations remain part of the political discourse during the election campaign.
Meanwhile, taking a detour from New Hamps-hire’s campaign trail, Ms Clinton said on Sunday that a water crisis in a Michigan city was “immoral” and demanded that Congress approve $200 million in emergency aid to address the community’s battle with lead-contaminated water.
Aides said Ms Clinton was invited by Flint mayor Karen Weaver to address the crisis of lead-poisoned water, a case that she has cited in Iowa and New Hampshire as an example of racial and economic injustice. It’s an issue that resonates among Democrats, particularly African-American voters who play a major role in later contests in South Carolina and a swath of “Super Tuesday” states on March 1.
