[recent] Bill Clinton comment may offend Obama camp
Rocky Mountain News ^ | 8-25-2008 | Sam Youngman

Bill Clinton appeared to undermine Sen. Barack Obama again Tuesday.

The former president, speaking in Denver, posed a hypothetical question in which he seemed to suggest that that the Democratic Party was making a mistake in choosing Obama as its presidential nominee.

He said: "Suppose you're a voter, and you've got candidate X and candidate Y. Candidate X agrees with you on everything, but you don't think that candidate can deliver on anything at all. Candidate Y you agree with on about half the issues, but he can deliver. Which candidate are you going to vote for?"

Then, perhaps mindful of how his off-the-cuff remarks might be taken, Clinton added after a pause: "This has nothing to do with what's going on now."

There is no elephant in this room, of course.

"Bill Clinton comment may offend Obama camp"

Good.

Just watching Neil Cavuto. He's got Don Imus on. Neil said to Imus: "I know you're friends with both Biden and McCain, who do you support in November?" Imus said: "McCain." Imus is a jerk, but he came right out and said Obama is disingenuous and a phony.

They should put this on pay-per-view.

I just happened to turn the news on and saw Imus. I thought Imus was great.
McCain could do himself some good to go on Imus’s show and appeal to Hillary voters.
What he said about Osamma Lamma Ding Dong was right on the money.
I’d just like to see more celebs. come out in favor of sanity.

I anticipate Bill Clinton will wag that finger as he scowls at the Obama people in Denver.

Obama did play the Race Card against Bill, and Bill is mad about it.

Imus is very good friends with McCain. He may be friends with Biden, but I don’t think it’s the same level of friendship.

"McCain could do himself some good to go on Imus’s show and appeal to Hillary voters."

I haven't listened to Imus in years, but I do know McCain goes on his show quite a bit, so I'm sure he'll be making some pitches for votes from Hillary's folks.

Insinuating that McCain has a level of sanity is itself insane. But each election we edge ever closer to the abyss.

After this sociopath and his unbalanced wife have caused the democraps the election, and you know they will do everything they can to help McCain win . I wonder then if the kool-aid drinkers will finally get it, finally see this pompous pig for the selfish, adolescent, fraud he has always been...

Bill Clinton is one sick bastard, so desperate for attention, he will do anything to attain it. This is a man who spent most of his life chasing women, some who willingly let this ogre touch him and others who he forced himself upon. It take a deeply disturbed person to sexually assault a women, people seem to conveniently forget all the women this guy has forced himself upon.

There is no decency or humanity in this cold, self serving opportunist. he is without a doubt, a classic sociopath. I put his illness on the same level as Hitler,Stalin, Hussein and all the other megalomaniacs through time - these are all dangerous sociopaths focused uniquely as only a sociopath can be on their own personal wants and desires. Deb Weiss in an article said it best "Here's a soul, so small, that even God would need a magnifying glass to perceive it."

He looked a little drunk to me. I'm not kidding. His speech is slightly slurred, and his gestures seem very "loose."
