There are more than 40 million voters who were not on the rolls the last time Bill Clinton ran for office. As hard as it may be to believe, Bill has not had his name on a ballot for 20 years and hasn't been a direct factor in a general election race since the American people rejected his vice-president in 2000.
But he's back, and he will play a large role in this election because his wife is his party's likely nominee. That and the fact he's hitting the campaign trail on her behalf mean his past, ever last nasty bit of it, is fair game.
What an absurd argument Democrats have to make to remain in line with Hillary Clinton's narrative. They must claim everything about Republican frontrunner Donald Trump's life is fair game, and every comment he makes, no matter how accurate and common, is not. Moreover, he's a "-ist" and a “-phobe._ What kind of "-ist" or "-phobe" is he? What kind do you want?
You name it; Trump has been called it. For that matter, everyone in the Republican field has been called racist, sexist or homophobic. If you're unfortunate enough to get your news only from the mainstream media, you'd think the most diverse field ever to seek a major party's presidential nomination was a Klan rally.
Of course, the Democratic Party was the party of the Klan, and its debate stage resembles a cross burning. The song "Whiter Shade of Pale" should bump in and out of commercial breaks. But that would be too honest for the media, as would telling the truth about Bill and Hillary Clinton.
Bill Clinton wasn't the "Teflon President;" he was the "Latex President" nothing got to him. He always had a buffer between him and the consequences of his personal actions. And, in most cases, that buffer was Hillary.
She was more than just an enabler. Hillary was a co-conspirator.
Famously leading the charge to contain Bill's "bimbo eruptions" in the 1992 campaign, she wasn't ignorant of her husband's predatory nature; she only hoped to conceal it. And she did … by beating these women down.
At least until Monica.
When the story of Bill's affair with intern Monica Lewinski broke, it was Hillary who was front and center denying it on the Today Show. Knowing full well her husband's penchant for other women, she lied about a "vast right-wing conspiracy."
The media, being the media, followed her lead and this "conspiracy" became the story. The Clinton machine even painted Monica as a "stalker" crushing on a sweet, trusting, father figure Bill.
Hillary may or may not have led the charge, but only the most naive of observers would believe she was not fully aware of the strategy. And it nearly worked.
Were it not for the blue dress, Monica Lewinski would be a forgotten footnote of an obsessed young girl who fell for her boss; a future Double Jeopardy question no one would answer.
But Monica wasn't alone. Kathleen Willey claimed to have been groped and propositioned by Bill in the Oval Office. Juanita Broaddrick came forward with her allegation that then-Gov. Bill Clinton had raped her. Both had evidence to back up their claims, and both came under hellfire from the media and the Clinton team. Hillary was a member, if not the leader, of that team.
Her future was intertwined with his. They were a "two for the price of one" proposition, after all.
Bill told the truth about Monica because he had no other choice. Team Clinton could discredit a young girl, critics, the prosecutor, anyone who stepped away from the narrative, but they couldn't discredit DNA.
The army of flying monkeys Team Clinton dispatched to deflect and deny the truth of Monica for months, costing taxpayers untold millions, no longer could do so. The rest didn't have a blue dress.
All of Bill's other women, and there were many, were attacked and dismissed using tactics from the Hillary-led "bimbo eruptions" squad. Hillary knew the pattern she'd created it and knew the need for it. To say, as many in the mainstream media have, that this is somehow "off limits" is, for lack of a more-perfect word, insane.
Some, in particular on MSNBC, have claimed "sexism" in making Hillary responsible for the actions of Bill. They, of course, focused only on Monica and not the assault or rape allegations (or the numerous other affairs) because, well, it's MSNBC. They, and the rest of the Democratic activist class, are counting on people not remembering what Bill, or Hillary, is really like.
Those 40 million new voters need to be educated.
For conservatives, a Hillary Clinton candidacy could not have come at a worse time with the party so divided. But it also couldn't have come at a better time. The left, aided by Hillary herself, have made the "sexism" allegation "proof" in and of itself.
When asked about this, Hillary's response was, "Well, I would say that everybody should be believed at first until they are disbelieved based on evidence."
None of Bill's women have been disproven "based on evidence." Yet this question did not come from anyone in the media; it came from an audience member at a town hall meeting. As long as that's the case, what Donald Trump is doing lately is invaluable.
The media won't talk about Bill's record of treating women like trash because they're complicit it in.
So although, for example, Marco Rubio's wife's driving record warrants a New York Times expose, the partnership between a former president and his enabler wife is somehow "off limits."
If holding Hillary accountable for enabling Bill is beyond the pale, perhaps she should remove being First Lady during his administration from the top of the list of her accomplishments on her campaign website. Otherwise, journalists need to ask questions, and follow-up questions, of both her and Bill about both of their actions, no matter how old the allegations are.
These are rules and standards liberals pioneered and imposed on everyone else; it's about damn time they're forced to live by them too.
Publicizing Bill Clinton’s sexual history is a proven negative for our team.
Subtle reminders (such as recently delivered by DT) are OK. Overt attacks hurt us more than they help, BECAUSE, everybody who gives a crap about any of it is not a Hillary voter anyway.

JUDGE JIM JOHNSON: When the Gennifer Flowers story broke, that story was a hundred times more credible than the story that literally knocked Gary Hart out of the campaign.
[Why this matters? Hillary husband had THUGS working for him. More coming up.]
“The media won’t talk about Bill’s record of treating women like trash because they’re complicit it in.”
They won’t need to, Trump will handle it himself with the assistance of Katrina Pierson. They still have not figured out that the media is emasculating itself and will be relegated back to writing phony stories about pre-20th century gun slingers.
LARRY NICHOLS: We filed the request for the subpoenas on Thursday.
Saturday morning we found Gary Johnson beaten and left for dead. And
without getting into gory details, both elbows were dislocated, his
collar bones were broken, his spleen and his bladder were ruptured
with holes the size of half dollars in them. His nose, his sinus
cavities were all crushed. He had been beaten by Clinton’s people.
INTERVIEWER: Were they very large?
GARY JOHNSON: Yes, (laugh), yes they were.
INTERVIEWER: Did they say, “Where’s the tape?”
GARY JOHNSON: Yes, they asked me for the tape.
LARRY NICHOLS: Now what’s sick is the man gave them the tapes, and
then they went and broke his elbows, punctured his spleen, punctured his
bladder.
GARY JOHNSON: They looked like state troopers, I’ll say that. Clinton
can be a very dangerous individual in the state of Arkansas.
LARRY NICHOLS: In my lawsuit in 1990 I named a lady, Sally Perdue, as
having an affair with Bill Clinton. Sally had an apartment in Little
Rock, and the Clinton security guards would drop him off at her
apartment and go park in the woods. When Clinton got through doing his
business he would flick the porch light and they’d know to come and
get him.
She started coming out, started talking. And believe it or not, before
she could talk, Clinton’s people got to her and offered her a federal
job or break her legs, whichever one was the best.
NARRATOR: SALLY PERDUE, FORMER MISS ARKANSAS AND RADIO TALK SHOW HOST,
CARRIED ON A SEXUAL RELATIONSHIP WITH GOVERNOR CLINTON BETWEEN AUGUST
AND DECEMBER, 1983. STATE TROOPERS AND GOVERNMENT VEHICLES WERE USED
AT TAXPAYER EXPENSE TO SHUTTLE CLINTON BACK AND FORTH TO SALLY’S HOME.
PERDUE, WHO TODAY SUPERVISES A HOME FOR PEOPLE WITH DOWN’S SYNDROME,
WAS OFFERED A $60,000 A YEAR FEDERAL JOB TO KEEP QUIET. SHE REFUSED.

Above, the Washington Posts lies through its teeth to protect the Clintons. A real nothing to see here piece (os).
The lie by ommission is breathtaking.
The white version of Bill Cosby.
“Publicizing Bill Clinton’s sexual history is a proven negative for our team.”
Trent Lott was the proven negative. Senators wept when they read the Starr Report. But the murdered witnesses, the coverup, the obstruction, the witness tampering — all chucked out the window by Trent Lott.
Donald Trump or Katrina Pierson need to be prepared when asked the question about Bill’s relevance. “Uh,(Candy, Savanah) Miss Liberal Journalist, what if Mrs. Cosby or Mrs. Sandusky were running for office? We do think it is relevant what Mrs. Clinton did in relation to her husband’s philandering and potential abuse crimes. What do you think, Hoda, Women of the View, etc...?”
I do agree that Clinton’s sex is not such a winner, but a lot of wickedness went on to cover it up, to blackmail congress critters [900 FBI files], and more importantly — Chinagate. Nuclear treason.
And Hillary got rich right along with her husband. And she was neck deep in Filegate along with other scandals.
I don't see any reason to expect he won't have equal standing in her administration, so he should be treated as a "co-candidate" for the election.
That's another issue in itself.
I'll take "Famous Humidors" for $1800 Alex
“Publicizing Bill Clinton’s sexual history is a proven negative for our team.”
Not really
What IS a proven negative for GOP or conservatives is the leader backing away from the issue. Which happens 100% of the time
It’s what makes Trump the only candidate. His brand out does conservative because at this point anyone who promises to bring back the country from liberal domination is better than anyone else, conservative or not
Ted Cruz says Clinton’s character is off limits
Cruz loses right there. He’s done
They simply cannot back down. We are done with it. We all want to go in there and run the government. We know we can do it better. The guy among us with the money and the know how is the one to do it.
He’s not going to back down. Clinton’s character will be talked about exposed and put I is proper place. Because Trump will not back away from I. Neither will we. He had sex in our White House in his government office while getting paid by U.S. To work to protect and defend the constitution
And his no good wife knew it
No
Next episode: well, there’s so much more there there and now we’ll react appropriately
Can the inventor of the Obamacare concept effectively campaign against Obamacare? Can someone who knowingly invited sleaze and corruption to his own wedding, to encourage getting better deals, effectively campaign against said sleaze and corruption? Can he run against his own wedding photos?
How many versions are there?
As the article says, 40 million new voters since then.
Bill Clinton’s treason is also fair game.
Of course he can. Tgats politics. Anyone thinking a Puritan can come in and win and get things done with a team is dreaming not of going back to Wally and the beav but to the 1700s
Let it go
No one is riding up on a white horse to fix this and if they did they are too late to register
Sorry. It’s going to take someone who knows how to work with thugs who take money to betray their own grandmothers
