McCain has Obama on the ropes.
He’s gonna come to the debate with fresh knowledge of situation awareness related to the economy.
Then, during the debate, he’s going to bury him.

DEBATE BOUNCE

Clinton is not even trying to exercise subtlety. he could if he wanted to. My guess is that he asked something of Obama, who either refused or hasn’t made up his mind. He is learning the consequences.

OR, perhaps Big Dog asked Obama to replace Biden with Hillary and Obama, wisely, refused, or refused to commit to that action. Either way, the Dogs have Obama over a barrel. If he switches at this late date, he shows even more clearly his lack of leadership ability, or if he doesn’t, he has the former president undermining his tenuous candidacy.

I LOVE it! He even used Mac's slogan and said, “we need to put the COUNTRY FIRST”! HA!!!!! Take that Barry!

I don't think that Bill is just pissed at Obama. I think he is pissed at MANY in the party that threw him and his pumpkin overboard.

And no, I have not forgotten what a slime he is, BUT I actually like what he has been saying since he has decided to be intellectually honest and not a partisan hack. I have found that I can actually listen to him without getting the nauseous feeling.

Wow.....it certainly sounds like Bill is out there doing all he can for Obama by defending McCain and practically praising him on The View.

Of course he is, do you really think Hillary was happy with the screw job she got at the convention??? Go Bubba!

Let's not get carried away. Bill Clinton is not our friend (and by "our" I mean both the USA and the Republican Party).

Ahhh, but he IS Obama's ENEMY!
