NEW YORK - Bill Clinton said Monday he understands why Sarah Palin is popular in the heartland.
"I come from Arkansas, I get why she's hot out there," Clinton said. "Why she's doing well."
Speaking to reporters before his Clinton Global Initiative meeting, the former president described Palin's appeal by adding, "People look at her, and they say, 'All those kids. Something that happens in everybody's family. I'm glad she loves her daughter and she's not ashamed of her. Glad that girl's going around with her boyfriend. Glad they're going to get married."'
Clinton said voters would think, "I like that little Down syndrome kid. One of them lives down the street. They're wonderful children. They're wonderful people. And I like the idea that this guy does those long-distance races. Stayed in the race for 500 miles with a broken arm. My kind of guy."

(((((Thank You!!!!!)))))... for correcting llib clintoon.
One of his? ("Hey! Can't let ole Tom Jefferson outshine me!")
Got to be the Onion...
Bingo! If McCain loses, it won't be because of the Clintons, that's for sure.
I’m laughing not at what he said, but at how completely inappropriate he is and how he sees nothing wrong. You know if anyone said to him, “Gee, Bill, don’t you think that’s a little, you know, rude?”
He’d say, “What? I said I like him!”
As Obama says..."Ya Ya can can't make this stuff ah ah up folks..."
He had me for a moment. This is how real people talk, saying fairly positive things in a awkward way. I especially like the plug for her hotness and how he represents AR.
Actually, I’m going to give bubba the benefit of the doubt on this one..
By “hot” I think he meant “sizzling” (which she is. Read my tagline).
He hates Black Racist Oblack.
Pray for W, Palin and Our Troops
Clinton on Palin:
"I come from Arkansas, I get why she's hot out there," Clinton said.
Priceless.
From the president who told us he had rug burns on his knees from romps with groupies in the back of his pickup.
You hit the nail on the head.
Mr. Obama had a brief window where he could have transformed himself from the empty-platitude spouting mannequin into a real human. I remember when a reporterette on TV showed him the New Yorker magazine cover (the one with him dressed up like a mini-mullah, and Michelle in her dungarees giving him the fist smack). You know that Mr. Obama had to have gotten a head's up on the magazine cover (since the New Yorker represents his fan club) - all he had to do was bust out laughing and he would have registered among people as a regular guy. Instead he got the 'I just swallowed a lemon' look, and continued his career as America's favorite automaton (actually, I prefer Robotman - but Mr. Obama is definitely part of the android club)...
Just saw a commercial for Letterman’s show. Chris Rock asked something like is it my imagination or can he (Clinton) not pronounce Obama?
A complaint about lack of Obama name in Clinton’s interviews, perhaps?
Ditto that.
He never ceases to sound like the back-woods sexist/racist
hick that he truly is!
Psssst! Better not get on her bad side!! She likes Moose stew!! Could be with Clinton sauce too!
LOL! She can chew ‘em up and spit ‘em out! Ole Billy would
meet his match and more if they were ever eye-to-eye!
I don’t think he knows HOW to treat a REAL woman! Look who
he’s been hanging out with all these years!
No, but I wish Biden would have said it! LOL
That about sums up this entire thread.
Astroturf burns, actually.
