E-mails show Hillary Clinton's political maneuvering over Keystone pipeline

WASHINGTON – Hacked e-mails show that Hillary Clinton’s campaign wrestled with how to announce her opposition to construction of the controversial Keystone XL pipeline without losing the support of labor unions that supported to project.

E-mails published this week by WikiLeaks show debate and confusion within the Clinton camp as it faced down the strong primary challenge by liberal Sen. Bernie Sanders, who opposed the pipeline.

As Clinton prepared to come out against the pipeline last year, her aides worried about how her shift in position would be perceived.
