He's a brave man. I'd advise him not to take any late night walks in the park...

Look how Hillary! and Obama stand out in a sea of black suits....

I have no caption... the whole thing is so contrived it makes me nauseated.

Cr*p if I have to WALK to Colorado to vote against Hillary, I will. Even from a distance, now, I cannot take another 8 years of the Clintons.

For the Witch to be dragging out Bill this early is a sign of panic. Obama must really be stirring up the sh*t...

Bill: "I don't think we'll make it past the cops."
Barack: "We'll make it past the cops. I just hope we don't see no Muslims."
