PARIS (AP)--Former U.S. President Bill Clinton says he's got a hunch that George W. Bush won't win another term at the White House.
In Paris to promote his autobiography, Clinton called Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry a "strong leader and very capable" in an interview published Friday in Le Figaro newspaper.
Though wars have helped sitting presidents win re-election in the past, Clinton said he didn't think Bush's handling of Iraq would work in the incumbent's favor this November.
"My instinct tells me that the current situation does not guarantee Bush's re-election," Clinton was quoted as saying in comments that were published in French and translated back into English by The Associated Press. Saying the U.S. hadn't previously seen itself as an "arrogant, military power," Clinton added: "I am in profound disagreement with the method of the current government."
Well that's it. It's over.
Time for the sack cloth.
Wow, a "hunch." What a ringing endorsement of John Kerry's chances.
Notice that the wiggle room he gave himself.
BTW, where is the hurl alert?
And Newt Gingrich predicted yesterday that Bush will win at 58% of the vote.
We will definitly find out.
To Billy Jeff: Come Back and say your drivel HERE, you perverted coward.
Bill Clinton - Just one more leftist proving you're never to old to be a punk.
I have a hunch that Xlinton is going to be HIV+ some day.

Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry (news - web sites)(L), who will be officially named party nominee at the July 26-29 gathering, delivered the speaking invitation personally after phoning Clinton on Thursday, a source familiar with the situation said.

"Saying the U.S. hadn't previously seen itself as an "arrogant, military power,"
Thats funny, I don't see the US as being arrogant.
Hey, Bubba? There are a whole lot of us who really don't give a RAT's what you think.
Did your "instinct" tell you to perform those atrocities in the Oval Office, too?
How low can you go. Shameless, lying, failure who sees no problem in sucking up to the Euro-weasels and empowering the enemies. *spit*
Explain Serbia then you raping little RAT
Since when have Slick's instincts been reliable?
AP Bias Alert:
Since when does "My instinct tells me that the current situation does not guarantee Bush's re-election" mean "Clinton Has Hunch That Bush Won't Win Election"
What Clinton said was the chances that Bush wins are less than 100%... what AP reported in their headline and in their first sentence is that Bush is going to lose.
I heard on Hannity's program (yesterday) that Newt is predicting Bush at 58% in November. Did anyone else hear that?
Exactly what I thought....
And where and when has Kerry shown himself to be a great leader? (And don't mention Vietnam!!!!)
Clinton added: "I am in profound disagreement with the method of the current government."
That could only mean that we're doing things "Right".
