He appears to have been a fan. Not anymore. From Anderson Cooper 360: In A Woman in Charge, I wrote about her ability to evolve, observable especially in the years before she met Bill Clinton and in the Senate: to learn from her mistakes. Events have proven me wrong on that count. The 2008 Clinton [...]

Why, oh why, is he bringing this up again…twice? And why is he repeating things that are so easily contradicted by VIDEO. What is he thinking? President Clinton, speaking in Boonville, Ind., revised history when he recounted his wife’s recent flap discussing a trip she took to Bosnia in 1996. President Clinton’s version had several [...]

In an odd twist, Hillary Clinton’s campaign has admitted that Bill Clinton supports the Colombian Free Trade Agreement that Senator Clinton stridently opposes. Either the former president, after a career of free trade advocacy, decided even he couldn’t flip flop with a straight face OR this is a cunning political strategy. The Clinton presidency brought [...]

With the demise of Mark Penn as a daily figure in this campaign, I wanted to take a retrospective look back. Not just to the beginning of the campaign, but to the beginning of Bill Clinton’s campaign in 1992. It makes the events of the past 3 or 4 days that much more astounding. I. [...]

Image source: freakingnews.com Last week the Clinton campaign released a new “3 AM” ad, this time targeting the economy and McCain. Taking a page out of the Obama campaign, the McCain counter-ad was released before most people had seen the original. They complement the previous “3 AM” Clinton ad targeting Obama and Obama’s quick response [...]

Greenwald has a breakdown of the stories that made the news… Here are the number of times, according to NEXIS, that various topics have been mentioned in the media over the past thirty days: “Yoo and torture” – 102 “Mukasey and 9/11″ — 73 “Yoo and Fourth Amendment” — 16 “Obama and bowling” — 1,043 [...]

That’s not an exact quote, but it may as well be. Most who’ve been following this race will agree that if she doesn’t take Oregon or North Carolina, she’ll have little chance of winning the popular vote and it’ll then be impossible to persuade the superdelegates to jump off the Obama bandwagon. And since Oregon [...]

Wow. It’s good to be a Clinton! (returns here) Here are the numbers Drudge show: Feds Taxes Paid: $33.7 million Charity: $10.2 million Her Senate Salary: $1,051,606 His Presidential Pension: $1,217,250 Her Book Income: $10,457,083 His Book Income: $29,580,525 His Speech Income: $51,855,599 Good for her and good for him. But why was this info [...]

The man who tried to destroy the Clintons is now almost endorsing the New York senator. From Pitt-Tribune: Walking into our conference room, not knowing what to expect (or even, perhaps, expecting the worst), took courage and confidence. Not many politicians have political or personal courage today, so it was refreshing to see her exhibit [...]

We already knew Bill Clinton enjoys a good scrum. Now he’s telling other Dems to put the pads on or stop playing the game. At a campaign rally in West Virginia, Bill Clinton said: “If a politician doesn’t wanna get beat up, he shouldn’t run for office. If a football player doesn’t want to get [...]

If you don’t know who Scaife is, The Corner has some background… In this picture, she is seen talking to none other than Richard Mellon Scaife, the owner of the paper and the man who once said that the death of Vincent Foster was the “Rosetta stone” of the Bill Clinton administration. (He also funded [...]

This is really amateur hour. The Obama campaign gave this photo to news outlets for what reason? To show that President Clinton meets people? All this will ultimately end up doing is remind people that Obama was a member of Wright’s church for over 20 years, and that Bill Clinton met the man for a [...]

This is probably the first time in long time he’s had negative favorability ratings. From MSNBC: One of the survey’s more striking findings is the diminished standing of former President Bill Clinton, whom some have seen as campaigning too aggressively for his wife — and against Obama. More respondents in the poll view him in [...]

“Now, they have been spending the last two, three weeks — you remember that advertisement with the phone call, telling everybody, getting all the generals to say well we’re not sure he’s ready, “I’m ready on day one, he may not be ready yet.” I don’t understand. If I am not ready, how is it [...]

He explains it better than any of us can…in particular the Clinton’s attacks on Obama’s war stance and how they’ve consistently lied about it. Fair warning, the video is long. Hope you got all the way through it. Lessig is one of the best at making his points and making them well.

I missed it (obviously), but here are the details (audio here) … Apparently Rush had a guest host that day because he was “sick.” Heh, okay… Folks, this is an ex-President! That is absolutely nuts! But he apparently wanted to get all those ditto heads to come vote for Hillary so she could stay in [...]

The common wisdom on Bill Clinton is he’s an invaluable asset to any campaign. Reasons given…he’s a beloved President, draws large crowds, draws large money, and it’s therefore assumed he’ll draw large support. But let’s look at the record… 2000: Al Gore virtually shuns Clinton and runs his own campaign against the son of a [...]

In the following clip, he actually says, “If you elect me, I’ll repeal those subsidies…” (Note: I didn’t know the video was autoloading (and repeating?), so you can go and see it here.) I really think that historians will look back on this campaign and agree that Bill has hurt Hillary SO much more than [...]

“The doors open at 7 and they close at 7:15. It would be tragic if Hillary were to win this election in the daytime and somebody were to come in at night and take it away.” – Bill Clinton, continuing to push the campaign’s meme that caucuses are unfair. Does he have a point? Discuss.

Yes, Billary is back on the stump telling people that Obama’s plan doesn’t cover everybody, that it’ll deny us health care, etc. Ugh… “Her opponent excites more Americans … but would in fact deny us universal health-care coverage for the first time,” the former president said. “She represents the solution business.”… “It would be truly [...]
