Bush needs to stop helping us.
Bush, Clinton, Bush, Clinton....does this remind anyone else here of a banana republic? There has been a Bush or a Clinton in the White House since January of 1981(including Vice President George H.W. Bush from 1981-89). What gives?
I do not read this as a particular compliment, considering that Hillry has hidden away her co-president papers from the public view... I think there is a reason why President Bush would say sees it first.
Bush is just stating the obvious. Of course Hillary understands the pressure, she was in the middle of so much of it. From bimbo-gate, to FBI files, to Craig Livingstone, to Hillary-care, to Whitewater, Hillary was smack in the middle.
Bush’s quasi endorsement....does nothing to help Hillary in the primaries, where democratic whack job voters cringe at the thought of supporting anything Bush does.
Could be the GOP is cautious about undermining Hillary too much, for fear Obama has a chance.
Spareno expense in making her the next mucka-de-muck of Iran! That’ll learn em!
“This is not the first time Bush has rescued the Clintons. After they left the White House, both the former president and the new senator had low ratings in the polls.”
“But, Bush swept in for the rescue, picking the former president off the ash heap of history and elevating him to parity with his father in a two-former-president effort t o raise funds for the tsunami victims. By giving him a respected place alongside a former president of unquestioned integrity, Bush gave Clinton a tremendous way to climb out of disgrace and into the limelight.”

Some good points in this article.
W knows the beast will be a problem for the rat. ITT will hurt down ballot where it counts as much as winning the top slot.
I’d like to see Karl Rove render his support to Hillary and watch the Kos crowd explode.
bttt
The only “shot in the arm” anyone should give Hillary is a needle with an excessive dose of morphine.
{just kidding)
“Would somebody please explain to us what Bush is doing, touting Hillary just as the rest of America is finally catching on to her artificial, evasive and contrived campaigning style?”
Because if Bush endorses her, the idiot left will not vote for her out of their hatred for Bush.
Strategery?
I've given up trying to explain to my friends and relatives what el presidente is doing. He may be finally succeeding in Iraq, but on the border issues and the UN attempting a power grab of US sovereignty....he's more than just an embarrassment.
I’m afraid this is a hoax. The Bush endorsement story is on Scrappleface.com, and we ought to know by now how well Scott Ott makes satire sound like the real thing. Rush Limbaugh once said he wished Scrappleface worked for him! Did M & M get the story from there?
The popular vote matters not. The next presidency has already been decided upon.
lets remember that any support from President Bush is a guaranteed kiss of death from the left wing nutjobs. He just cemented her loss to BHO or the Breck girl, either one totally unelectable!
Mrs Bill Clinton is running in the Democrat Primaries. For the average Democrat Activist GW Bush is a cross between Adolf Hitler, Joe Stalin and Satan. Having him say nice things about Mrs Clinton has the same effect on Democrat Voters that having the high priest of the Church of Satan make favorable mention of a pope candidate would have on Catholics Cardinals.
