I still don't understand why he would get a better reception than she would.

Well, I'll take a stab at it... he didn't pretend to be from there to get elected to the senate. He's also not the arch-enemy of the now beloved Rudy.

Really! If they don't like her, they should hate him. I don't get it.

From my talking to various people, Bill Clinton is probably getting more outward negative reaction via `guilt by association' with his wife. The big gripes are about her public behavior of late. Foremostly, her eye-rolling and grimacing during Bush's congress speech. Also her performance at a memorial ceremony where Bill relatively behaved.

Her conduct during the address to Congress was sickening. Not only does she see herself as the center of the world, she is childish too.

It's poetic justice; here she stood by her man, something she said she would never do, and now he gets respect and she gets dissed. Although his day is sure to come, for right now he's the rascal too many people love to hate, and she's just an attendant machination.

I think God has a terrific sense of poetic justice; like Bertrand Russell's horrific halitosis (sp?); "take that you atheist, see how far that'll take you with the ladies."
