Speculation on Clinton’s buying in Punta Cana

It is said that their special lot is reserved. The New York Daily News comments that the former US President and New York’s senator “are so enchanted by the Dominican Republic’s exclusive Punta Cana Resort that they are discussing buying a home there.” The Clintons made their fifth visit to the DR for the New Year holiday. According to the newspaper, in the past, the couple has been guests of singer Julio Iglesias and designer Oscar de la Renta, but now Punta Cana insiders are buzzing that the Clintons want a place of their own. While a Hillary spokesman denied the rumor, the Daily News speculated over the holidays that a Dominican Republic hacienda could help her lock up the Latino vote in her re-election bid next year.
