Asking for Hillary Clinton’s transcripts from her paid speeches to Goldman Sachs “could be a slippery slope” for even more requests, one of the candidate’s top surrogates insisted Thursday.

“I think there’s nothing to hide, but I think that could be a slippery slope and we could end up asking for all sorts of things,” David Brock, the founder of the pro-Clinton Correct the Record PAC, said in an interview with MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.”


In defending Clinton’s paid speeches to Goldman Sachs, in particular, Brock cited former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, who embarked on his own speaking tour prior to running for the Republican nomination in 2008.

“She got fair market value for her speeches. She made that decision,” he said, remarking that it is up to Clinton and her campaign to decide whether to release the transcripts.

Pressed on the issue for his own recommendation, Brock demurred.

“It’s not for me to say,” he remarked at the end of the interview.

Clinton has in the past said she would “look into” releasing the contents of her speeches, though she has not yet done so. POLITICO has reported that she “spoke glowingly of the work the bank was doing raising capital and helping create jobs,” citing people who heard her remarks.

“Let everybody who’s ever given a speech to any private group under any circumstances release them. We’ll all release them at the same time,” she said at a debate in New Hampshire earlier this month. “I have never, ever been influenced in a view or a vote by anyone who has given me any kind of funding.”
