Following Bill Clinton’s Monday stump speech backing Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton, MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell blew a chance to ask the former president the question on everyone’s mind.

Over the past week, Republican front-runner Donald Trump has stated that Bill’s sex life is “fair game” for attacking Hillary, yet instead of pressing the former president to respond to Trump’s attacks, she lobbed him a softball. (VIDEO: Trump Says Bill Sex Life Is ‘Fair Game’)

“Do you think Hillary can win this one?”

“Sure,” Clinton responded after a brief pause. “Win here? Sure, but it’s going to be hard.” (VIDEO: Bill Clinton Takes Shot At Donald Trump’s Temperament)

It should be noted that Mitchell has been criticized for being softer than baby food while dealing with the Clinton campaign.

Following her September interview with the former secretary of state, Mitchell admitted that she elected to cut questions about Clinton’s private email server over fears the campaign would “pull the plug” on the interview. (RELATED: Mitchell Cut Short Her Hillary Clinton Interview Out Of Fear)
