    Why wouldn’t he? He carried WV twice. People there will always adore a clinton and a Byrd.

    What show was this? American Idolatry?
Even though it was Robert Byrd - a memorial service should have a certain decorum.
But then - these are Dems;0

    Clinton was clever enough to draft the great RWR, the economy stayed healthy and people gave him a pass.
Obama will enjoy no such goodwill.

    The thrill is gone. But what kind of people applaud at a memorial service?

    I don't miss the jerk in the least.
 His foolish leadership got us 9/11.
 And his wife would be worse in the WH than Obama.

    People like Clinton more than Obama, what a shock.

    As much as I detest Bubba Clinton, he had more leadership ability than Obama.
Not much but anything is more than Obama has.

    And his wife would be worse in the WH than Obama. That's a pretty tall order.

    Thats because clinton was part of the filibuster against Civil Rights. Thats why he was applauded. I take it the audience was full of people who left their sheets at home.
