Chelsea Clinton might run one day: Bill

From correspondents in Washington

May 23, 2008 10:24am Article from: Agence France-Presse

FORMER US president Bill Clinton does not rule out the possibility of a third member of his family running for president one day.

Asked in an interview with People magazine, to appear today, whether his 28-year-old daughter Chelsea Clinton would ever consider running for office, the ex-president said: "I don't know.

"If you asked me this before (January's Democratic nominating contest in) Iowa, I would have said: 'No way. She is too allergic to anything we do.' But she is really good at it."

New York Senator and former first lady Hillary Clinton is currently battling for the Democratic presidential nomination.

An early setback motivated the only child of the political power couple to get involved.

Bill Clinton said his daughter joined Hillary Clinton's campaign after realising her mother "lost Iowa 100 per cent because of younger voters."

"She was upset, bawled, went into her employer and said: 'Look, you got to let me go or give me an indefinite leave of absence. I'm not letting my mother go down like this,"' he said.

A telling sign that it ain’t happening for Hillary. This is the typical “I didn’t make it buy my kid will” type of response. (Well OK he DID make it, but my point is that this could be a response to the fact that Hillary is going to fall short).

Notice how the left avoids the obvious fact of Chelsea’s bio-father?

I mean, we say it here all the time, and most things conservatives talk about as “folklore” - the left always derides.

On this, they’re silent.

LOL. She’s obviously presidential timber.

Maybe he should offer “Webb Hubbell’s kid” her Monica-kneepads and tell her to get ahead that way.

I am really appalled and disgusted that a 28 year old pampered brat (whose only experience is getting academic and job opportunities for which she was likely unqualified) is now to be discussed as presidential material because she is part of the Clintonista crime family.

Bill Clinton will be remembered as the president who caused 12 year olds to wonder about oral sex. What a legacy!

Wouldn’t that be something if we could get a DNA sample of Chelsnot’s and one from that rapist former governor of Arkansas (what’s his name?), and do like they do on the Maury show: “When it comes to you being Chelsnot’s father, you are NOT her father!”

Wonder if that would go anywhere with the drive-by media?

By 2016, the Brits will have cloned Bill, fast-grown and educated it, and Chelsea will not have to worry about leading a life not her own. Bill will, of course, be availabe for substitute duty.

Covered under the Family Leave Act?

I don’t think she’s all that bad looking. In fact, I think she’s grown up to be a lot prettier than what she used to be.

I can understand your desire to humiliate the Clintons, but what good would running a DNA test do for Chelsea Clinton? It implies we think she's illegitimate. The facts don't matter; the implication is mean-spirited. Even if she were not genetically a Clinton, the Clintons raised her and she is the child of their hearts.

Should we humiliate the sons and daughters of politicos we don't like? That is morally the same as a speaker demanding that Jenna Bush and her sister be drafted because the speaker hates George W. Bush.

All is not fair in politics any more than it is in business. There are ethical restraints.

Perhaps she should work on a gallop or trot first?

The current GOP candidate addressed this matter a decade ago.

There should be a medical term named after him...

There is. Cogenital Lying Terminally Sociopathic Narcissist.
