Clinton is an alley cat, but he knows politics. He DOES get why Palin is exciting the ticket and moderates. His advice, not to go negative on her, but talk about why the dem ticket is better, is similar to what Karl Rove said Obama should do. I think that they’re right. I’m glad they’re too angry and short-sighted to follow good advice.
The Clintons know full well that an Obama victory means an end to Hillary’s Presidential aspirations. If Obama does even mediocre in office, she can’t run until 2016. If he’s a disaster, she’d likely lose in 2012.
Say what you want about Bill, but he is not dumb.
