What’s the matter, can’t she act spontaneous on her own?

Hillary needs to learn how to play the saxophone.

I’m sure Broom Hillary would melt if someone threw a bucket of water on her.

You can’t unteach her being a cackling witch.

For millions, the thought of Slick Willey back in the White House as first husband is too much to stomach.

Hillary will not be our next president. Way too much baggage.

Except this time — it will be harder for their shills in the media to cover up the financial scandals.

Somebody dig out the ad Ross Perot ran about the Riadys the night before the 1994 election.

Hillary also needs to be careful. If she wants to talk about nostalgia, people might start talking about the '80s and the Reagan Revolution.

What I wouldn't give to have the '80s back!

You laugh but here is a very scary rehearsal of what we might expect to see on a late night show coming to you.

With the full might of the federal government behind them, regulators began demanding that banks make loans to people at high risk of defaulting. Banks sheepishly complied.

I remain convinced that this is one of the reasons that no one has ever been criminally convicted in the 2008 fiasco. No Congress-critter nor Regulator wanted to bring that mud to the surface and so they just used civil fines.

I do, however, disagree with this final sentence; "Banks sheepishly complied." Heck, they CELEBRATED because they were basically throwing the burden upon the taxpayer and the CMO buyers. They got the fees up front and swept the dirt out the back.

People are nostalgic about the Clinton years, but they don't realize what they are nostalgic about are the years when conservatives controlled congress and forced Clinton to govern better.

The single issue you hear most about when people bring up Clinton more than anything else is... he eliminated the deficit.

But that's a LIE

Clinton did not eliminate the deficit, the conservative Republican congress forced him to eliminate the deficit.

There is a HUGE difference between those two things.

The other things that happened during the Clinton years that people are nostalgic about actually had nothing to do with him, just lucky timing.

Relatively peaceful time prior to 9-11.
Internet took off
Cell phones use took off
Dot com boom years (although they tend to forget the bust)

The one thing I specifically remember that Clinton accomplished was the American Disabilities Act.

Huang correctly identifies the two albatrosses of Clinton’s governing malfeasance: affirmative action in lending money to people who couldn’t pay it back, and leaving America wide open to Islamic terrorism. Hillary emulated Bill Clinton’s indifference to Islamic terrorism in Benghazi. Either you know history, or you are condemned to repeat it.

Bringing in Bill to rescue a flailing Hillary actually sounds like a pretty decent strategy.

Probably since about 1/3 of the potential voters were not even alive when slick willy was around and like Sgt. Schultz, "Don't know nothing".

“For millions, the thought of Slick Willey back in the White House as first husband is too much to stomach.”

Yeah? I have yet to find one woman who use to love the Slickster, not wishing for him to be back in there as the “First Husband”.

I spoke to four or five women at my company's “Holiday” lunch who still swoon over him (but don't like Hitlery much), but would vote for her just to see him back in the spotlight.

Even some of my wife's relatives (women) still love him and would think it nice to see him in the Whitehouse.

This is how Hitlery will play it ... trying to get women to vote for her but thinking they are voting for the Slickster.

This is what passes for “thinking over the issues” when it comes to voting for many women.

I'm sure many of you will flame me for saying that and I don't give a rats ass, but it seems to me that the majority of women are so pathetically superficial when it comes to voting that a lot of times I think the 19th Amendment was a bad thing.

Rush coined the term “Arousal Gap” to describe Slick Willie’s inexplicable allure with female voters.

I see the NH flag on your profile. Now I see why there are still woman that dig the rapist in chief. Not being snarky. Even democrats in Texas (exception She-jack) are more conservative than many republicans from the NE.

Texas....you'd be hard pressed to find anyone who voted for Clinton, either time.

Perhaps if you travel to the inner city of Houston's 5th ward...ya might.

I work down on the north shore of Mass where MANY women still swoon over the mention of the Slickster’s name.

It is amazing how many supposedly “book smart educated” women go nutz over this POS.

NAFTA was pushed by both sides, maybe even more so by the Republican side than the Democratic side, since unions hated it and still do.
