Bill Clinton in Denver again undercuts Obama

DENVER — Bill Clinton appeared to undermine Sen. Barack Obama again Tuesday. The former president, speaking in Denver, posed a hypothetical question in which he seemed to suggest that that the Democratic Party was making a mistake in choosing Obama as its presidential nominee.

He said: "Suppose for example you're a voter. And you've got candidate X and candidate Y. Candidate X agrees with you on everything, but you don't think that person can deliver on anything. Candidate Y disagrees with you on half the issues, but you believe that on the other half, the candidate will be able to deliver. For whom would you vote?"

Then, perhaps mindful of how his off-the-cuff remarks might be taken, Clinton added after a pause: "This has nothing to do with what's going on now."

The comments are unlikely to be taken as an innocent mistake by those Democrats who continue to be angry with the former president for, they say, not supporting the Illinois senator wholeheartedly, if not implicitly undercutting him.

The Clintons have figured out that Obama will probably lose and they see no reason why they should have to expend political capital to prop him up.

The DNC put Bill’s speech on a 5 second delay - presumably so that the Annointed One could kill any comment that might be considered unfavorable. Bill’s a left-wing creep, Hillary’s a left-wing creep, but Obama’s a left-wing fascist loony with a messiah complex. Personally, I’d take left wing creep any day.

Like that’ll help. Anything said would be known anyway. It was probably his idea.
