>>> we're going to focus right now on information we're getting here regarding joe sestak 's allegations that the white house had offered him a job in order to keep him from challenging fellow arlen specter . msnbc can now confirm stuff that's been whispered over the last couple of weeks. bill clinton was the person that talked to sestak sometimes last summer. clinton was dispatched to find out what sestak wanted, what his plans were. and nobody at the white house knows 100% for sure what former president clinton said to sestak or what sestak heard. this is the latest news coming in here at msnbc.
