what is likely to become a theme of the last weeks of campaigning before the midterm elections, former President Bill Clinton all but begged voters here in Arkansas not to use their vote as an expression of disapproval for Barack Obama.
The president is playing an outsized role in the race between Arkansas Democratic Sen. Mark Pryor and Republican challenger Rep. Tom Cotton, R-Ark. Obama is seriously unpopular here; a recent survey by the Democratic polling firm Public Policy Polling put his job approval rating at 31 percent, versus 62 percent disapproval.
...
The Democratic effort to free Pryor and others from the weight of Obama's low ratings took an enormous hit last week when the president, rather than distancing himself from the midterms, stated boldly that they are a referendum on his policies.
"Make no mistake," Obama said during an economic speech in Evanston, Illinois. "These policies are on the ballot every single one of them."
...
Barack Obama said it's his policies that are on the ballot," Cotton said Saturday. "I agree for once with Barack Obama. His policies are on the ballot, as is Mark Pryor's support for them."
Democrats have good reason to worry. A president's job approval rating is a pretty reliable predictor of midterm voting, and Obama's ratings are down in several states in which Democrats are in danger of losing Senate seats. In addition to Obama's 31 percent approval in Arkansas, the president is at 39 percent in Louisiana, 40 percent in Iowa, and 42 percent in North Carolina, according to PPP.

Why not the Senators too?
Was he trying to give mouth-to-mouth to all the young women again? Dirty old man.
Give Arkansas a huge shot of penicillin to get rid of the Clintons......
Here in Michigan we have the added bonus of pinning Jenny Granholm to the democrats.

I would gain a little respect for Bill Clinton if he tried to save the United States from Barack Obama. Saving a corrupt party of special interests and crony capitalists doesn't impress me at all.
This isn’t the same Bill Clinton who was accused of raping a couple of women a few years back, it it?
Sorry to see Blanch Lincoln in a picture with Bill.
Did Bill use his line about , Barry fetching coffee ?
LIKE your post.
No pix of Clintoon with Johny Edwards ?
Excellent !
Because 0bama's campaign didn't incorporate disapproval for Bush, right, Billy? Let me put it this way: GWB would never have been President if the voters didn't disapprove of you. Funny how things like that work out.
That would be the 17th Amendment.
What’s with the fly-catcher mouth always hanging open? Even in Arkansas slick ain’t cool.
It wasn’t too very long ago that President Sink Master was saying, “See y’all later!” to ‘rat cronies, and their reply was, “Not if we see you first.”
I’m surprised the folks of arkansas don’t hate both klintoons asses.
Like Carter when he was elected gov of Georgia the state was a low tax small gubmint sort of place.
Not so much after he was in charge.
LOL!! I had NO idea Clinton helped lose all those races.
Mmmmm....that's so typical....the last refuge of a scoundrel.....a woman's vagina.
====================================================
Arkansas women should ask themselves:
"Would you want this guy Pryor messing w/ your vagina?"
