Bill on going negative: media bias made her do it
Bill Clinton voiced his abiding anger at the media's coverage of him and his wife in Durham, N.H., today, and suggested that media bias will force Clinton to go negative on Barack Obama.
He also expressed his frustration that his wife is perceived by voters as divisive through, he said, no fault of her own.
Clinton, like his wife, is traveling New Hampshire taking questions from voters, and he spoke at the University of New Hampshire in Durham in response to a plea from a woman who said she'd like it "if you and Clinton joined Barack Obama in putting the Republicans on notice" that it was time to "change the game" and end the "meanness" and "manipulation" in politics.
Clinton replied that he liked the idea in theory.
"I think we can change it as long as you have access to information by people who are committed to judging everybody by the same set of rules and following the same set of rules," he said. "According to the most recent media analysis, thats not whats happened so far, but yeah, I think it should be done."
Clinton also let his audience glimpse the scars of his White House years.
"Nobody would like it better than us if you could get that personal vilification out of there, because nobodys been vilified more than we have," he said, after noting that he thought Hillary and McCain could run a respectful campaign. "One of the problems with laying down and turning the other cheek is McCain had one dose of it. They gave it to us for eight years.

“Look what you made me do.”
A Clinton is never at fault.
Yeah and he was as pure as wind driven snow and did absolutely nothing to deserve it. Give me a break, I think he did and is still inhaling.
