CHARLOTTE, N.C. Bill Clinton will tell delegates at the 2012 Democratic National Convention that Republicans left President Barack Obama a total mess, he hasnt finished cleaning it up yet and that the incumbent president deserves another four years to implement his vision for the country.
In early excerpts of the former presidents remarks, Clinton amplifies on the message Democrats delivered on the first day of the convention Tuesday, describing Obama as a champion of the middle class and Republicans as hostile to the interests of regular people.
In Tampa, the Republican argument against the presidents reelection was pretty simple: We left him a total mess, he hasnt finished cleaning it up yet, so fire him and put us back in, Clinton will say. I like the argument for President Obamas reelection a lot better. He inherited a deeply damaged economy; put a floor under the crash; began the long, hard road to recovery; and laid the foundation for a more modern, more well-balanced economy that will produce millions of good new jobs, vibrant new businesses and lots of new wealth for the innovators.
Clinton continues, framing the election philosophically: The most important question is: What kind of country do you want to live in?
If you want a youre-on-your-own, winner-take-all society, you should support the Republican ticket, Clinton will say. If you want a country of shared prosperity and shared responsibility a were-all-in-this-together society you should vote for Barack Obama and Joe Biden.
The wildly popular former president is one of the most anticipated speakers of the week. With Clintons personal approval ratings clocking in near 70 percent and his eight years in office chiefly remembered for their economic prosperity there are few messengers better equipped to speak up on Obamas behalf.

Bubba can give a good speech.
and the only reason he was any success is because the Republican Congress and Newt held his feet to the fire. It was a Republican Congress..and he buttered up to the Bushes after he was out of office....because he needed to get some class, character, dignity and respect..
He is so proud of Hillary...hell in four years bet they saw each other for what a couple weeks...she is always up in the air...what a bunch of bull s_i_ he is saying...and he won't stop until they drag him off the stage..
He'll talk all night if someone doesn't shut him up soon. I think he's on a roll now. Half the goofballs in the audience don't even appear to understand what he's saying. Of course they clap anyway.
And let us not forget, an IMPEACHED PRESIDENT.
It's astonishing...they do a tribute to a drunken, murdering senator, feature the most incompetent president of the last 100 yrs (well, maybe two of the most incompetent), and give a prime speaking slot to this philandering sexual deviant.
If life/politics were fair (and clearly they're not), the RNC would've paid tribute to Richard Nixon...and it would've been more deserving.
>> Bubba: Give Obama Time To Clean Up “GOP Mess”,
Thinking about the docudrama, “Path to 9-11”.
Four years ago the left smeared Clinton as a racist. So why did they want a racist to give a one hour speech tonight.
How long did it take them to get him to put his pants on and tell Monica he’d be right back?
There's the tell. Nobody buys this for a minute, and that's exactly why he said it.
Whats even more astonishing is that the American electorate having been granted Universal Suffrage via Constitutional amendment voted to put this degenerate into the WH twice and hasn't stopped there, putting a communist muslim in soon after and getting ready to put a high priest of the heretic Joseph Smith's cult in pretty soon.
The truly astonishing thing is how the WASHINGTONIANS con simpletons into thinking that they will do anything other than grow the federal apparatus and extort more cash from the productive class to fund their pensions and perks.
P.T. Barnum was NOT kidding.

CLINTON SAYS THERE ARE 3 MILLION UNFILLED JOBS!!!!!!!
HEADLINES, LETS SMASH THAT ONE OUT OF THE PARK.
Does anyone believe this guy who said: “I did not have sex with that woman”!
Bottom line is this, if you want equal everything and nothing more than your neighbor you vote democratic.
If you expect to stay where you are a drone, a worker for the government, vote democratic.
If you never want to succeed, to win, to fulfill your dreams, vote democratic.
If you just want to be average, a non achiever, a nobody exceptional but yet with free healthcare, vote democratic.
If you really truly desire to live under a socialistic society, vote democratic.
Why even bother to live free? Give up your liberty for a free rectal exam and an EBT card.
Vote democratic.
That’s racism! What is he, the maid? Let him retire with a generous pension and sip pina coladas in the shade. Enough of “cleaning” whitey’s mess./s
Hey wait a minute -Didn’t we IMPEACH this guy? Didn’t he mess up a blue dress, and chase a young girl around the office with a cigar? How’s he have any credibiliy?
Keep giving these types of speeches. Acknowledging things are a mess is probably not helping The One.
Exactly. Why didn’t the dems force ‘the rich’ to pay “their fair share” when they had a super majority?
Actually, NKP_Vet, I think there are millions of Republican voters who do hold Clinton in high regard, and at least three of them are named Bush! And there’s a woman in HI who might be called an “Obama Republican,” a Ms. Lingle.
Isn’t this the case to be made: B. Clinton got away with doing what millions of his felflow American would like to do but never could.
