The former president remains popular with the NASCAR crowd and he never fails to skewer the Bush administration, noting, for example, that he left office with a federal budget surplus.

That's because he did nothing about terrorism, let Bin Laden go free and set the next president up for 9/11.

There is some truth to the allegation about “the NASCAR crowd,” although I’m part of said NASCAR crowd and clinton has never been popular with me.

Even so, this is why Hilary is good as a foil for Obama but her being the nominee is bad. She can get the voters Obama can’t, and she’ll keep most of the voters Obama had. Obama is by far the more beatable candidate.
