Can Bill Clinton save Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign? (Isn't *he still busy dating?)
Examiner ^ | 9/25/14 | Mark Whittington

Posted on 09/25/2015 4:37:19 PM PDT by Libloather

Friday, the WMUR/CNN Poll released the results of a new survey that shows Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vermont an incredible 16 points ahead of Hillary Clinton in the New Hampshire primaries. Sanders has 46 percent and Clinton 30 percent support of Granite State Democrats. Results like these, plus the persistent email server scandal, plus Clinton’s dismal performance on the campaign trail have the candidate’s supporters in full-bore panic mode. The Hill reports that some Hillary supporters are demanding that her husband, former President Bill Clinton, take a larger role in the campaign in order to save it from calamity.

**SNIP**

The problem that arises is that no matter how canny a consigliere Bill Clinton would be for Hillary Clinton, the fact remains that she will remain the candidate and not him. She would have to do her own fast talking when the latest scandal news hits the presses and, thus far, she has not been very good at it. Her husband can coach her all he wants about what to say, when to bite the lower lip, and when to cock the eyebrow in an ironic fashion. Hillary would have to acquire suddenly acting skills that would rival Olivier’s. It just is not going to happen.

PLEASE!!!...no more dancing on the beach in swim suits!

It’s been 20 years since the last pic of that and those cottage cheese thighs are now saggy cheesecloth bags of loose curds.

In the final analysis a turd is a turd, regarless of how much perfume you pour on it.

Bill said a few years ago that if he passed away during her campaign that would give her a huge boost. He seems to be in much better health than she is though.

And this touches on an issue I’ve wondered about regarding Hillary and being a woman president.

And that is: how historic would Hillary be as a woman president, when the only reason she may get to be president is because of her husband? Doesn’t feminism teach us that women are supposed to make it on their own, as any man would???

As much as I despise Bill Clinton, he is probably the best “politician” of our lifetime. Still, he couldn’t save Hitlerly in ‘08, and he probably can’t in ‘16. She’s past damaged goods.

Right now, in this world, we don't need a woman in as our leader....any woman!!!

We have to deal with ‘tribal’ people, people who think women are second class citizens...and we can't have a woman trying to talk to those people...

We need a ‘MAN’ and I don't mean someone like Bush, Rubio, we need a strong man...Trump, Cruz are the only two that can do this...Carson is a nice person, but to soft spoken, we need someone who can say what needs to be said and those are the only two that we have...

Sorry women, but we need to bow out of this one....

There was a piece recently in which Hillary was trying to benefit from the close relationship she had with Gov Ann Richards of Texas -- the only woman ever elected governor of Texas.

Except for the fact that Ann Richard was the second women elected governor of Texas. It seems that back in the 1920s the guy who was governor died -- and he was so popular that the people elected his wife to carry on his legacy.

This sort of diminished the historical importance of Ann Richards and therefore diminished her importance to Hillary. But not to worry -- Hillary's campaign still boasted about the relationship to Ann Richards who (as everyone knows) was "the first woman elected in her own right to be governor of Texas".

It became a slightly odd, awkward and mysterious phrase which sort of served the purpose by misleadingly suggesting that Ann Richards was a historical first, and that Hillary would be too.

But, in fact, Hillary owes it all to her husband, just like that TX woman in the 1920s.

Hillary has gone a bridge too far.

It’s not always what you see and hear.

Sometimes it’s what you DON’T see and hear.

Hillary is the anointed Democrat Presidential Candidate. Why are the Democrats not screaming about this e-mail business?

It’s because this one isn’t about politics and they are all afraid of standing up for someone going to court.

Is that physical, mental or emotional health?
I would seriously doubt whether EITHER of them has the latter. They have no morals but probably consider their moral health a-ok.
