Hillary, without a dress for the wedding
What is more difficult: "Negotiating peace in the Middle East or the wedding of your daughter" questioned a CNN reporter to the Secretary of State of the USA.
"They are probably equal" answered Hillary Clinton who confessed that "neither the two of us have a dress yet."
Hence the argument for eloping.

I have a question. Why is it: "Probablemente igual" respondió Hillary Clinton que confesó que"ninguna de las dos tenemos vestido todavía".
and not
"Hillary Clinton, a quien confesó que "ninguna de las dos tenemos vestido todavía".
What's with that que confesó que. What's the first que all about?
