He is a slick talker with no substance, IMO. However, he was a Muslim at one point and right now I think that the last thing we need is that. Check his voting record. He has been pro Muslim from what I have read. And for some reason when he changed from Muslim to Christian, he was not given the death penalty but a pass to get back in. Go figure. If you don’t think that the Mussies could not create an eloquent speaker to assimilate and take over our country, people are fooling themselves

I happened to pass through Lebanon, NH yesterday. There was an Obama event going on there. HUGE crowd. I didn’t know whose event it was until I got home and watched the news. I’m telling you there were a lot of people there.

“With more time, he said, more voters would begin to question the substance behind the Obama campaign.”

Any old excuse will do, Slick. Actually, more voters are really questioning the NON-substance behind the Clinton campaign.

Since the Bill Clinton campaign of the early ‘90’s, he has campaigned for many a politician he supported. Trying to think how many of those he campaigned on behalf of won. IIRC the answer is NONE.

That said I am thinking that if Hillary’s makeover (reinvention) is ineffective, and she is out of the race within a short period of time, then we should all encourage WJC to Campaign for Obama...for the good of their party of course.

Yes and/or no.

IIRC, shortly after the 2004 election, Hilalry and several other dem leaders talked openly about doing something to negate the influence of Iowa and NH, because they were unrepresentative of the dem base..The two states screamed, she backed off..probably because no one saw Obama back then..

How true. For him to now blame the early primary system that they surely engineered shows the limits of Clinton hypocracy have still not been defined.

Bill has been "managing" his wife's campaign. He has done so well that many members of his party are choosing the once-Muslim son of a polygamous Kenyan Tribal Chieftain over a member of his family.

It remains to be seen what he can do for his daughter, who is reputedly on the fast track to Congress, sort of Bill Clinton's answer to oily Joe Kennedy, who BTW, wants Mrs. Clinton's seat out of her Senate seat ASAP.

Huge crowds at political events don’t mean they are all votes for that candidate. My brother is a socialist liberal. He fought the traffic, crowds and security to listen to GWB.

I’m under the impression also that all this primary date changing was done to give Hillary an advantage. If so, it is ROFL that it is backfiring on her.

Black or White?

Muslim or Christian?

Lawyer or person?

What is the over/under on how long they stay married after she loses the election? When does she run again for her senate seat?

ha ha ha ha ha.

Bill Clinton, reduced to blaming the PROCESS instead of the lack of SUBSTANCE in the campaign he is supporting.

Just like him.

And now, we have it on record, he doesn’t think the OBAMA campaign has any substance.

Thanks, Slick Willie: the Republican nominee will be glad to use that information in his ads after the convention.

It’s going to be Obama vs. the Republican nominee.

Best case scenario is that:

hillary gets wiped out by Obama in primaries,

Superdelegates and Dem Party machine nominate hillary anyway,

Dem voters, furious at being usurped by power brokers, abandon her in droves to create a Republican landslide.
