JERUSALEM (AP) - Former President Clinton said in an interview Friday that he believes his wife would do a better job than he did in the nation's highest office.
New York Sen. Hillary Clinton has not said whether she plans to run in 2008. Nonetheless, her husband told Israel's Channel Two television that her experience as first lady would help make her a strong president.
"In some ways she would be (better) because of what we did together," he said from New York. "First, she has the Senate experience I didn't have. Second, she would have had the eight years in the White House."
"I think she wouldn't make as many mistakes because, you know, we're older and more mature, and she is far more experienced now in all the relevant ways than I was when I took office," he added. "So I think in a way she has the best of both worlds."
Bill Clinton was interviewed on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the assassination of Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin. He is expected in Israel later this week for the Rabin memorials.
Hillary Clinton, who is running for re-election to the Senate next year, has refused to rule out a run for the next presidency, saying she is concentrating on her current office. Polls indicate that if she runs for president, she would be the favorite for the Democratic nomination.
Young female interns might still have watch out...
Isn't this kind of like saying that you've got a better chance of standing above sea level than if you're in New Orleans.
I watched "The War Room" last night on cable. It sure brought home to me how MSM is manipulated by carville, begalla, Stephenopolissssssssssssssawerfkkasl, et al. Our President is going down the tube because of the msm. We have to help him. What is going on?
Than what, a wildebeest?
Sir:
You will be hearing from our solicitors for this grievous libel.
Very truly yours,
Friends of the Wildebeest
Sure she would. They BOTH like young women.
I know which one I think is more attractive. How about you? LOL
yeah... I'm sure Monica would agree.
I would be interesting for the Supreme Court to decide whether Hillary's 8 years in office precludes her from running again. We surely need lawyers like the left has to bend and twist this idea into fact.
why not - maybe in her THIRD term in office she would get it right?
That's not saying much.
Better?
Great point! I suppose it all depends upon your perspective. Maybe Bill thinks he was a little too moderate. LOL
Clinton Says His Wife Would Make a Better President
The guy who emties my wastebasket here would make a better President than Billy Boy did
I just threw up in my mouth a little...
Except she has the personality of a Ninja and is a "communist" by design.
Ron Jeremy would make a better president than Bill Clinton.
The bent one is bucking for the job of "First Gentleman".
Talk about damning by faint praise.
So, naturally, his focus was on himself...and his wife of record.
"...she is far more experienced now in all the relevant ways ..."
That is not something a guy should say about his wife. Particularly when you know he hasn't been "with" her in decades.
I'm guessing this article will get 400+ posts.
