Bill Clinton: "If You Elect Me" (I'm Speaking as Her)
Jake Tapper, ABC Blog.com
For a natural-born politician such as former President Bill Clinton, it may be tough to spend so much time talking about someone else.
In Portsmouth, Ohio, he said, " If you elect me, I'll repeal those subsidies. And put them into a strategic energy fund that will create American jobs for America's future with clean energy."
Watch Video HERE.
If you coughed and missed the "Hillary says" in that sentence you might be surprised when he reaches the "if you elect me" part of the pitch more than 60 words later.
Because after all he's not running for anything.
Right? Read article.

He’s also said that he will sit in on cabinet meetings “if Hillary asks him to”.
Think she’ll be asking Bush41, Bush43 or Jimmy Carter to sit in on cabinet meetings?

The grifter’s not a George Washington - he’s a low-class “grab for everything” kind of guy. I’m sure he’d like a third term - luckily the American people and some in the MSM are starting to see him ...

Of course it's really "if you elect us"
To: lowbridge
Wow, he doesn’t even correct himself lol.
Either his health and mind are going faster than I thought or it was a contrived tactic because the campaign knows that “Hillary” is a loser product.

The other day they showed a clip of him talking to an Ohio group where he recalled watching the election returns back in 1992 and seeing and hearing "Ohio has just been called...and William Jefferson Clinton is elected President of the United States".
He said, "And I thank you so very much for that".

Hmmmm ..?? That’s my interpretation too.
It really sounded as if Bill was saying that he’s going to be in the driver’s seat with Hillary .. so nobody needs to worry about who’s running the country because Mr. Perfect will be there to handle things.
You can’t get much more arrogant and self-absorbed than that.

And there is surprise because?... Hell, this end run around the Constitution is precisely what they’ve had planned since the 1990s! The only things they hadn’t figured on were his failing health, and the fluke of Obama-which I think is nothing more than anti-Clinton voting-among whites, anyway.

Of course it's really "if you elect us" No, we don't run two people for office - and a man running his wife is so creepy South American banana republic stuff.
Yeah, it's been done in this country - George Wallace, (former Governor of Alabama) that old time racist, ran his wife for his office. Billy and Hilly are following in some really creepy footsteps.

Make no mistake. It's "us" -- not just "her." As Mitt Romney slyly commented, "I can't imagine Bill Clinton in the White House with nothing to do!" Exactly.
By the way, Bill made another Freudian slip this same week in a radio interview, telling listeners, "vote for me."

Can you imagine if McCain’s wife would had said that? He’d be out of the race already. The media would crucify them. This should be heard every top of the hour on the radio news and the top story of every evening news cast at night. The is straight BS.
