The kinder, gentler Clinton

This year I decided to be more invloved in the political process than I have been in the past. What this really amounts to is reading up on it more and comparing what I read to try and distinguish the truth from the 'slightly' true. So, I ran across this acticle today about the Clinton camp and it kind of reminded me why I tend to shy away from politics. A few phrases from the article made me chuckle.

  • '(they) bemoaned the degree to which former President Bill Clinton’s criticism of Senator Barack Obama last week had inflicted lasting damage on his wife’s presidential candidacy.'
  • 'a sense among many Democrats that Mr. Clinton had injected himself clumsily into the race, will try to shift the former president back into the sunnier, supportive-spouse role'
Anyway - I like the 'sunnier, supportive-spouse' too. How dare he be so mean. Hard to imagine how her presidency would go. Is Bill being allowed out, or does he have to stay in? Sit Bill, sit. Good boy......
