WASHINGTON - Former U.S. president Bill Clinton on Thursday cast an approving eye at Sarah Palin's political skills, but would not be drawn into speculating whether his wife, Hillary, will run for the White House in 2012.

Clinton said he did not agree with Republican vice-presidential pick Palin on politics, but warned fellow Democrats not to underestimate her.

"She's an instinctively effective candidate and with a compelling story," Clinton said in an interview with CNBC.

"I think it was exciting to some that she was a woman," said Clinton.

"I get why she's done so well. It's a mistake to underestimate her. She's got good intuitive skills. They're significant."

Clinton said he thought McCain, a Vietnam war hero and veteran lawmaker, was a "great man" and that the election on Nov. 4 would be close, but he predicted Democrat Barack Obama would emerge triumphant.

‘Cast and approving eye.’ Hmmm....

Exactly what do you mean by that?

He ADMIRES HER.

He even seems to RESPECT HER.

He feels that Democrats won’t.

That’s what I take out of this. I could read more into this, but deep admiration from a top notch politco like B. Clinton is enough for now.

No journalist would be stupid enough to start an article with that line...the readers mind is so busy trying to stay away from the obvious comebacks that the rest of the article just kinda becomes meaningless chicken scratch..

I had not seen this before and thanks for posting it
at a time when I could see it.

It’s the legs.

The tanning bed.

Her long rifle being carefully lined up and caressed into that warm living center of its throbbing target ....

The Moose? (Or would that remind him of sleeping with Hillary?)
