"I tried and I failed".
Yup. You tried, and you failed, and when you feared that the polls might start saying that your wussy base doesn't want you to make thing go boom anymore, you just gave up tryin'.
So contrast that to this president's not giving a rat's _ss about what the polls say, and that, Mr. Clinton, is the difference between you, and him.
The diff between real leadership and wet-finger-in-the-breeze fecklessness!
