Rejuvenated Bill Clinton Takes Aim at Tea Party Darling Sharron Angle

After helping lead candidates in Pennsylvania and Arkansas to unexpected victories in recent weeks, former President Bill Clinton is now hitting the campaign trail in Nevada to help vulnerable Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid overcome Republican nominee Sharron Angle.

Bubba is back and now he's got a Tea Party favorite in his crosshairs.

After helping lead candidates in Pennsylvania and Arkansas to unexpected victories in recent weeks, former President Bill Clinton is now hitting the campaign trail in Nevada to help vulnerable Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid overcome Republican nominee Sharron Angle.

And according to the newest Rasmussen poll, Clinton has his work cut out for him.

The poll shows Angle leading 50 to 39 percent. The poll was taken one day after Angle won the GOP primary and likely reflects a post-primary bounce.

When that poll is averaged with two others taken right before the primary, Angle has a much smaller lead.

Still, Democrats are bringing a lot of establishment power to take on Angle, particularly in Clinton, who is currently enjoying a political resurgence of sorts.

Last month, Clinton helped Democratic Rep. Mark Critz win a special election in rural Pennsylvania. And his campaigning gave Sen. Blanche Lincoln the edge in her narrow victory in Tuesday's Democratic runoff in Arkansas against union-backed Lt. Gov. Bill Halter.

Now Democrats are hoping Clinton can rally voters for Reid.

...Something tells me people aren't going to have such warm memories of Bubba when all the questions about Elena Kagan's role in advising him on his various, um, affairs come to light...

The Bill Clinton-Joe Sestak scandal has not been resolved yet. When the indictments are handed out, there will be no rejuvenated Bill Clinton.

No good journalist would ever write the above paragraph without providing factual evidence to back up the claims. To say Blanche Lincoln won because of the impeached one's help is total opinion. And that's not good journalism.

Let's hope the Angle Campaign will point the Clinton/ Kagan cover up to head off Bill's Las Vegas Adventure.

Who says Bubba gave Lincoln her edge in Arkansas? And who could possibly give him credit in the PA Murtha seat, when the Dem ran as a right-wing conservative? This is a classic case of 2 + 2 = 5: it simply doesn’t add up! Guess desperation and hope spring eternal as the Left grasps for anything to assuage their damaged egos as they search in vain to comfort themselves on their way to certain electoral slaughter in November.

Time for the GOP to fight dirty. Send out a robocall of someone acting in the role of 0bama... “if you liked my handling of the oil spill, the economy and the deficit, you’ll LOVE (whatever Democrat is in the race)!”

I would hang around his appearances with a sign; “I did NOT have sex ...” and a picture of him pounding the podium. By their actions you shall know them!

Obama has emasculated Clinton. He is a has been POTUS. Pay no attention to his self aggrandizing ramblings.
