NYT "Celebrity Crossword": Clues by Bill Clinton
Celebrity Crossword
Twistin' the Oldies
Constructed by CATHY MILLHAUSER / Clues by PRESIDENT BILL CLINTON

Editor's Note: The clues in this puzzle are a little more playful and involve more wordplay than in a typical crossword. You have been warned. -- WILL SHORTZ

2. Clinton was featured in the crossword documentary "Wordplay"
which was amazingly good, especially considering it was a documentary on crossword puzzles. I highly recommend seeing it.

3. I seem to remember that during his first Presidential campaign, his ability to do crosswords...
in amazingly quick time was remarked on.

7. The link now has a PDF solution! The answer to 91 across is...
(I think) "utero." I confess it's DeepModem Dad who's the Crossword solver in our house. He's traveling, but had time before he left today to say that the Clinton crossword was difficult!
