CNN

From Superbowl commercials, it's clear to see that Obama is running for "King of the World," while Hillary is running for President of the U.S.

And yes, he may be running against what he perceives as Bill Clinton's excellent record, at least psychologically; or his campaign who previously worked for Clinton decided to make it more interesting and define the strategy against the only person they knew they had to beat – miscalculating who was running for President.

An ill-defined candidate, or a campaign seeking the wrong target may not be able to deliver the anticipated Superbowl Patriots win they want if they are outplayed by a team like the Giants who walked away with the bragging rights of upsetting a team who had won every game except the championship game.

In this case, the game is the Presidency, not King of the World and vision restricted to that office, and that opponent would show a sign that Obama knows what planet Americans are on, and where they reside.

Obama is a joke and Republican plant.

Bill Clinton didn't say his campaign was a "fairy tale", but I will - OBAMA'S CAMPAIGN IS A FAIRY TALE.

Clinton is the real thing. PROVEN, TRIED & TESTED.

It still boggles the mind how blind & gullable the human race can be. Lets see,
woman are voting for someone that has more baggage than all the airports
on this planet, and there reason – well she's a woman.
Oh and lets not forget her husband who lied to the American People in such a convincing manner, with whom all the airhead women go goo goo ga ga over.
Then if your black, you are most likely going to vote for the black candidate
only because you share the same skin pigmentation. Sounds like racism and genderism to me, rather than anything to do with a logical thoughful thinking process. The fighting thats happening between the two main democrat candidates reminds me of when I was in kindergarten. You did this, you did that,
you are lying – no you are. How ridiculous, or do they really understand how uneducated and naive the American People have become?. If anyone who is voting for the female candidate would take the time to read up on her past while at the Whitehouse, I think anyone who would vote for H.R.C. is brain dead.

I have been a Clinton supporter for last 16 years, through all the stuff he was involved in through the presidency. But there behavior lately, has made me rethink whether I really want to support these guys any more.

I think It is time for change – I am switching to Obama

Let's nominate John Edwards. As far as I'm concerned, he is the best candidate – the person who actually reflects a Democratic platform and the spirit of America. I admit that HIllary is the most articulate, but the negative campaigning on her part, as well as Obama's has turned me off to both. As to Barack, I would love to WANT to support him, but he is not at all convincing. He doesn't SAY anything. So nominate John, period.

Could it be that (Clinton) is jealous of Obama? Is it his youth? Is it is intelligence? Dare Obama be able to do what the Clinton presidency could not accomplish? Is it the fact that if Obama gets elected in the major election, he will REALLY be the first black president and Bill will have to give up his seat at Sylvia's? Hate to do it but I have got to go there! Bill' s hostility reeks of other "issues." It seems for me as a black woman I am starting to believe that old belief that when black folks try to get power, white folks are right there to cut them down. This doesn't seem political on the Clinton's part, it's personal. No I don't really believe they are hard core racists, just that dismissive "thing" that I observe coming from some white folks when it's "them or us". I am totally disgusted!

I have to say that after viewing the debate last night, I will vote Republican if Hillary (and Bill) Clinton are the nominee(s) for the Democratic party. I am a long time, registered Independent and have never voted Republican. I will this time, if the Clintons are the nominee. A sad day for us all – if it happens.

Obama – 2008

Bill and Hillary are a modern age political couple. She as first lady redefined the role, and now he is redefining the role of an ex-president participating as he is in her campaign. How unfortunate that some Americans are so retrograde in wanting to hold people to established molds. Americans can sometimes be so simple minded, really.

Michelle Obama has attacked Hillary last August she said "how can she run the white house if she cant even run her personal household." But noooo that gets no press....

Is it possible that Obama has never forgiven Bill Clinton for campaigning for Bobby Rush when Obama challenged him in a Democratic primary for Congress in 2000?

I appreciated Bill for lots of good work for the country and the world though he was a chronic liar. But the popularity of a politician heavily and mainly depends on his/her current activities. And, I get disgusted by what Bill has been doing for his wife. If there is any way to impeach a president retrospectively, Bill qualifies for that.

You, liar Bill, talk to any of the retired presidents and get some advice from them. You're bringing disgrace for them too.

It is sickening how the women of this country come to the defense of a political hack like Hillary Clinton. I was once a huge fan of her husband, and now...well if the devision they are creating in thier own party is anything like the gulf they will build in office, get ready for four more years of exactly the same thing we have been dealing with. Oportunistic misrepresentations of what Obama says does not make him soft on the issues, he has stated what he stands for again and again. If a Clinton wins the nomination, i am voting independant, count that as one staunch democrat that will leave this party. Permanently.

What a Clinton legacy. Tear down Barack Obama, perhaps the most visionary politician since RFK. Dwell in the mud, throw it at others, they get muddy whether they sit there or protest. Sad thing. I am glad that Barack fought back. I hope he can get back on message, but that is the last thing the Clintons will tolerate. Trust is the first requirement to obtain the consent of the governed. I am starting to steel myself for the possible need to vote for John McCain.

Wasnt Bill Clinton impeached for Lying to America?

I think he should be banished from politics!

He's a liar!

No one is saying Bill Clinton shouldn't support his wife, what is at issue is his style considering he is a "FORMER PRESIDENT," but why should we be suprised he showed "NO CLASS when he was PRESIDENT."

Why would anyone want to listen to someone is not sure what the meaning of "is" is?

Obama 08

It funny with obama supporter attack President Bill Clinton. Obama need to stop whinning and Grow Up

Obama is a really cool and funny guy. He would probably be fun to hang out with. But we should want a President that works hard and can solve problems. Thats what Hillary represents.

Who's going to be the real President, if Hillary should win. Bill or Hillary? Which is actually going to play the Surrogate?

Great response Bill and it's true!

Obama keeps making mistakes and Hillary has nailed him each time! He's made his whole campaign around knocking Hillary on her votes. He's running a negative campaign with the aim of tossing Hillary out and taking her place. At the same time he's dragging the whole Democratic party into the mud!
Keep supporting your wife and the Democratic party.

America loves you and Hillary and we won't turn our backs on you!

I find it profoundly disturbing that Senator Clinton feels it acceptable to complain about the tactics of her opponents while simultaneously allowing her husband, who isn't running for anything, to become the focus of her campaign. I find it particularly distasteful that she has said numerous times that her gender should not be a factor and yet her husband continues to bring up her gender and use it as a political tool.

Obama's wife campaigns with him.
Edward's wife campaigns with him.
Why should't Clinton campaign with his wife?

We know why Republicans are coming here screaming they voted for Clinton twice. No you didn't. You want Obama to be the Demoratic nominee because you know your candidate can't beat Hillary in the General Election.
Twice Hillary beat the Republicans in New York despite all the Right Wing Radio Talk heads attacking her 24 hours a day.

Democrats, don't let the Republicans fool you with their fake "Obama Support".
And if you are a Democrats supporter of Obama, there is nothing wrong with that. But don't fall for the Clinton haters' game.

Go Hillary Go!!!!!!!

Bill has every right to support his wife. So stop whinning Obama.

Talking a good talk does not equate to experience. Why after almost eight years of bungling, corruption, and human rights violations - when the next president faces such formidable domestic and global challenges - would be elect someone (Barack Obama) for president who lacks the experience necessary to tackle the challenges of our nation's future. Not to mention, a thinner skin on a politician I have not seen in far too long...

He is running against you Bill. We knew that from the start. What a disservice to real feminism.

Obama screwed up by running too early, and now he's been shown how the big boys (and girls) play. He needs to go back to the playpen for a while.

And as for his "dancing" comment, maybe his mommy needs to teach him some better manners.

Dems are not ready

08 GOP

more slander

Gop 08

Obama is running against hillbilly and the she half is a politcal opportunist who was a GOLDWATER girl and her comment about that it took LBJ's signing of the civil rights acts of 1964 is HOLLOW to realize MLK'S DREAM....... LBJ specifically left out VOTING RIGHTS that didnt come until after MLK and the BLOODY SUNDAY march...THE POLITICS OF THE MOMENT ...obama has it right on the money her and her dishonest husband talk out of both sides of their mouths.
btw if she is taking credit for bills presidency then she also has to take responsiblity for the screw ups ...those children burned alive in the school bus in waco texas ...al queda operatives training in the united states ... the slaughter in serbinica ...the massacres in sarajavo ...not going after terrorist camps in afganistan because bill was to busy chasing skirts in the white house when she and he were supposed to watching OUR HOUSE.
911 it was under HER watch those traing activities took place ..not bush two
losing the congress because of her and bills policys of "common ground"ha what a joke .....bill was voted in because america wanted a change from the world war two generation ie:bush senior .....now we need a change from self indulgent do nothing baby boomers ...and just exactly what does hillary know about the REAL WORLD she is the epitomy of liberal eastern elitist just check the new york times comment string all her old hag friends from the eastern prep schools with trust funds.

Barak Obama for President!! Not the Clinton's again...please.

I adore Bill Clinton, but lately I can't help but roll my eyes. As for Obama campaigning against him, to some extent, he has to. Dangle a carrot on a stick, and you invite the horse to take a bite, you know?

Hillary IS running, in part, on her experience in the White House. She has no qualms talking about the successes of the Clinton administration, what was accomplished during the course of those eight years. None of us really know just what part she played because neither is willing to push for quicker document release, but even so, it's not a stretch to say those accomplishments were Bill's. Bill loves the limelight, and is very involved in this campaign - he's vocal, he's visible. You can say this of all the candidates' partners, but he has an advantage they all lack and gains attention that they don't, and he's had a tendency to talk about himself and what HE's done when he's supposed to be speaking on her behalf. If Bill doesn't wanted to be treated as an opponent here, perhaps he should tone it down a bit.

I don't know if any of you noticed, but it was Obama that started the personal mudslinging last night. He did not even answer the question about fiscal responsibility. He wanted to come out swinging against Bill. Hillary had every right to shoot back. I agree with the comment above that if a white man had made the statement he made about needing to see how well Bill Clinton danced before deciding if he was America's first Black president, the Black community would be going balistic. What hypocracy we have in this country. I was appalled by that statement. The double standards we have. I felt Obama belittled the entire black population with that comment, but will we hear from Al Sharpten. I think not. Obama is handled with kid gloves by the press and has definitely been given a free ride. If he wins this nomination, the republicans will eat him alive. Hilary has been tested, and put through the strainer, there aint no dirt to be found and no crumbling to be done on her part. She's tried and true. Go Hilary!! Clinton/Edwards!!! p.s. I would like to see Obama again in another 8 to 12 years. I just don't think he has the experience.

The only successful "ideas" Bill had during his presidency he ripped off the Republicans, or passed because they reinforced the Republican agenda. The attacks on Obama by the Clintons and their surrogates are tasteless, ignorant, and embarassing. They will divide and ultimately destroy the Democratic Party because they are so power hungry and unprincipled. What has Hillary ever achieved.? There are dozens, if not hundreds, of women far more deserving and accomplished. Her record is the flimsiest of any candidate in either party.

Reality one: You can't separate Hillary from Bill. Hillary has the two-for-one advantage: you elect Hillary, and you get two experienced people in the White House to deal with a very complex world in a difficult moment in History. Obama knows that and is trying to deal with this fact. If he can't deal with both, then he shouldn't be the president.

Reality two: Whether you like Bill or not, his years were marked by the longest economic expansion in America history. Also, since after the WWII, the U.S. image has never enjoyed such higher ratings than it it did during the Clinton years. That alllowed for the use of diplomacy to deal with difficult issues, rather than resourcing to arms and wars. What's Obama's record?

Reality three: As a result of this administration's policies, the U.S. was never so unpopular around the world. If before there was one Obama, now there are hundreds, if not thousands, of Obamas out there. They created an unjustified war (WMD?) that killed thousands of our troops and hundreds of thousands more civilians. Oil is expensive, the economy is a mess, instability and uncertainty are everywhere, the world climate is changing, etc...That's what the next president will inherit, which very closely resembles what Bill inherit when he was elected. Is Obama prepared fot that?

Bill Clinton's antics and comments in this race are an embarrassment to him, this wife and the party. Bill you should be ashamed of your self. Bill, you have helped convince me to vote for Obama.

Someone running his/her mouth????
Last I checked, still a FREE country and speech particularly FREE.

I had the chance to see Bill Clinton in our town, Eureka, CA, last week. Half of his speech was geared towards trying to prove that Obama is inexperienced. Though he is clever. He never mentioned Obama by name, but called him Hillary's "main opponent" over and over again. It was a sad sight. He didn't mention one thing of relevance to voters in our region. Honestly, I dont think he even knew where he was. Didnt take time to answer our questions after we waited in line for six hours to see him. I thought Hillary's campaign has changed to be more geared towards the people? I didnt see that.

Obama has proven that the people are his focus time and time again. The Clintons are playing hardball political tricks. I think Obama should just ignore them and keep his focus on the people.

What has Obama actually acoomplished?? He talks big, but his record is pretty small. Definitely he is NOT ready to lead. Maybe in a few years.

Its very interesting watching Obama debate. He seems to be able to make non-denial, denials to just about everything. What makes it more interesting is the fact that the moderators never push him on it. They never question him further to get to the bottom of things. I felt that two weeks ago, when Tim Russert had the talking points memo in his hand, they didn't ask him directly if he knew about it. That piece of paper had more to do with the "race" issue that came up than anything else. Again, Obama was given a pass. I agree with Hillary that it's frustrating and impossible to debate him on the issues. I hope people see how paper thin his candidacy is. He has nothing to offer the American people other than his ability to give a good speech. He does it well, but when there's nothing else to back it up, it reminds me of what we have now in the White House. The only difference is that Obama can pronounce words correctly. Hillary 2008.

Obama is too dry and calculating for me!

Of course it seems like Obama is campaigning against Bill. President Clinton is about as big an endorsement and presence one can have on the campaign trail. I can't tell you if Bill has actually campaigned for Hillary, as all that is reported is how he campaign's against Obama. So, if he is actually talking about Hillary's stance on the issues or her policies, I couldn't tell you. Everytime I see him quoted, it is about Obama.

I don't have any problem with Bill supporting his wife. I'm very surprised with his rhetoric. I respected his message during the 2004 campaign. This time, there is no message. I found him to be inspiring. I wish he would get back to doing that.

You are absolutly correct Bill!

Obama has essentially taken Bill's comments out of context to tell an inaccurate story. Newsweek has reported on this concerning Obama's adds.

This was a very revealing debate! Maybe voters will begin to realize that Obama used poor judgment with his premature run. Obama doesn't handle scrutiny, confrontation or accountability well. He sounds arrogant and controlling.

The spotlight was on an obfuscating, divisive, manipulative Obama last night. He will have a difficult time overcoming this. His strategy backfired big time. I thought he was smarter than this? I also thought Barack might be ready for VP but not after last night.

Obama isn't ready for the Republicans or 08

The fact that Republicans are coming out to vote for Obama is only a testiment to his ability to appeal to people across party lines and probably unite this country. How is that a charge? That's one of Obama's assets.

This is what I want. Both Clintons to disappear and Edwards and Obama having a REAL, legit run for President. Seriously, be gone.

Un...be...lievable. I am an independent that is still looking at different candidates and their stance on issues. I saw the debate last night and was absolutely disgusted with Hilary's performance. All she did was point out things that other candidates have done, and twist around the facts so it appears something wrong occured. She just lost my vote.

Hey Hilary, before you point the finger, pull the thumb.

Bill Clinton is giving us a preview of what to expect if he is the 1st Man. It seems clear to me that if Hilary wins the Whitehouse, he will say and do whatever he wants to whomever he wants. If the outcome is good, she takes the credit. If the outcome is bad she avoids accountability. My concern is that the world needs to trust our leadership, which in part means consistency, predictability, and accountability. Bill Clinton is having too much fun playing with mis-information/disinformation. He thrives on creating confusion and uncertainty.

I voted for Bill Clinton twice. If Hillary cannot or will not control Bill, the DNC needs to step in and give them both some counseling . Their win at all cost behavior is disgraceful and does not serve to build or strengthen the party. I have already decided to vote for Obama. If the party leadership does not intervene, I may vote Republican.

Bottom line............By putting Bill Clinton in the white house to be second opinioned on everything Hillary says is going backwards not forward. FACT....his bully pulpit is much larger than hers will ever be!!!!

To: Ann in MO

Amen, Sister, Amen. You assessed the whole situation perfectly--thank you!

Not another 4 / 8 years of same-old-same-old. We've had enough of these so-called political dynasties. Not Bush. Not Clinton. Vote Obama 08.

I was turned off by the bickering between Obama and Clinton. However, i am proud of Obama for standing up to the Clinton machine for once.
Obama started the campain with intergrity and respect. However the Clintons' panicked when he won Iowa and decided to do whatever they could to derail his chances. Hence, he has to defend himself as well as call her out on the holes in her record.
I wish they didn't resort to cheap jabs, but for last night it was VERY neccessary for Obama to answer back to all the manipulative accusations the Clintons' have been shamelessly spreading since he won Iowa.
I am proud of Edwards conduct – but lets be honest – he is just to boring..
Obama '08

I voted for Bill Clinton both times.............and have been a long time Democrat, but I will not vote for Hillary if she is the nominee. I am embarassed for the Clintons and how they have conducted this campaign. I've finally realized I would be voting for Bill again, and his time has come and gone.

Hopefully Dems, Independents and Republicans can put aside politics and do what is best for this country. Nominate Obama!

Roger how can people still say he hasn't explained the "present:" votes. He clearly stated that he voted present because if somethings were changed on the bill then it would pass but it wouldn't pass the way it was. I swear a lot of people have selective hearing and keep asking the same questions over and over. Americans love drama.

More lies and distortion coming from the Clintons. Get use to it people, they are just showing you who they really are and have lied their way out of every legal entanglement they've been involved in.

Well Bill, the reason why it seems that Obama is running against you, is because you seem to be running against him.

Please remove yourself from the stage. You are now the "Spouse". You may go and serve tea to the press corps with Cindy McCain.

Hillary was looking for a fight on Subday night. She is letting Bill do the dirty
work for her. It some point, it will smack her in the fare. Maybe it will not happen now but if she makes it to the White House, it will get her them. The voters might
put her in but what will she do when she has to deal with congress and the others? They will do things behind her back quicqer than she can close her eyes. The boys are out to get her if she gets there and there are not enough women there to protect her.

It will not surprise me if she never gets a health care bill passed,what will she say then and who will take the blame when the nation starts banging her? If she
keeps letting Bill do her DIRTY works she might not get there.

Mr. former President Bill Clinton, Will you please show your Good Wisdom and not act as you are doing now, leave alone that you are helping your wife.

A lot of people respected you but the way it looks at the moment, am afraid your respect wll vanish sooner if not later!

Yes, Bill, it's all about you. Like everything else in life, it's always about Bill.

This man's ego is so vast even light cannot escape its gravitational pull.

Each time I respond to the nonsense on this page, my comment gets put into moderation. I am a teacher of history and I can tell you this: Few people can find fault with the peace and prosperity of the 1990's. If anyone tells you that President Clinton didn't do a great job running this country, they would be lying. Could he have done more? Of course. Especially, if the Republicans hadn't spent all of the taxpayers money dragging him and his wife into court on charges they couldn't substantiate and trying to impeach him on charges that he had sex with that woman and was afraid to admit it to his wife. Do we really need to talk about all of the past Presidents who had extra-marital affairs? Because if we do, it will look really bad for any man trying to get into the White House.

Bill's playing the attack dog so Hillary's hands stay clean. It's the same old game uncle Tom use to play. She knows she can't win without the black vote.

As much as it pains me to say, the Clintons are starting to make some Republicans look good. I'd vote for McCain over Hillary any day, but Obama or Edwards (or Kucinich or Bloomberg) over any Republican. Dems: this is your chance to not f' it up...anyone but Hillary!!!

America needs to be reminded that it was Bill Clinton's impeachment that gave us 8 terrible years of George W. Bush.

I am a 60 year old life-long Democrat. I will vote for McCain if Senator Clinton is the nominee. The basic building block of the consent of the governed is trust. I trust Senator Obama. He is the real deal.

You know what drives me crazy is the free pass some of you guys give Obama! Why isn't he or his campaign held to the same standards as Hillary's?? So are you people saying Bill Clinton is the only spouse of the presidential candidates on the campaign trail stumping on the part of their spouse?? I do not think so, I hear Michelle Obama speak at rallies, just as we have seen Mrs. Edwards doing the same thing. Moreover, both of these women constantly question Hillary's record, so what is the difference?? WHY THE DIFFERENT STANDARD? So Mrs. Obama and Mrs. Edwards can attack Hillary, question her record and stump on their spouses’ behalf, but if Bill Clinton does the same things as these women for his spouse, he is accused of being the one running for President. How is this fair? Make sure your litmus tests are fair and given equally to each candidate. What is good for the goose is good for the gander.

Mscarol13 – Go do some shopping if you need a change and upgrade your wardrode or something!

Its the nation we are talking about here...and if it is someone from before – but who can do a great job – then we select him/her...not because it feels great to have a new name in the White House!

Slick Willy is LOVIN' this! He's back in the game–the game he loves best–politics. He will stop at nothing to get back into the White House.

We have heard from the spouses bashing Senator Clinton. I admire President Clinton coming in defense of his spouse/ As a woman married to the same man for thirty nine years, I would expect nothing less from my husband.
Hillary successfully brought out what has been reported and justifiably. Obama folded last night and that shows he is far from ready to fight the Republican fight.
Go Hillary!!

Yes, Bill CLinton is absolutely right! It does seem like Barack is running against CLinton. He is praising Ronal Reagan and saying the GOP is the party of ideas.

This guy is a joke!

CLINTON 08!!

You sullied the office of President when you were there.

Yor are doing it again now. George H.W. Bush, though I disagree with his ideology, at least had enough respect for the office and power it gave him to stay out of his son's campaigns.

Bill, you did many good things, but your insecurity and lack of class are a disservice to the nation. Your wife should win or lose on her own.

"Its not whether you win or lose, its how you play the game..." unless your a Clinton.

Chris in CT – Dude, your crying is starting to depress me. Can't someone get the baby his bottle?

Where are the Clintons's ethics? Bill and Hillary you should be ashamed of your selves. No former president has actively attacked other candidates basically because as no former president would dare to use undue influence to get another person elected. It is improper even if she is your wife. You both have had your time in the White House and should not be involved in Presidential politics at all. Bill you need to get a hobby other than tearing apart the party just to fill your desire for power. Go to your room and stay there you need a time out. Hillary the real question is who is running the family Bill or his surrogate candidate.

Chris makes good points. I think the difference with Clinton and Obama is that Clinton is more concerned about simply winning the election and Obama is more concerned about how his campaign is run.
Personal attacks have consistently come from the Clinton camp. Does anyone think that Hillary would even be up there if she was running on her own merit and not Bill Clinton's wife? If you remove Bill from the equation, what has Hillary really achieved?
It's okay to have your spouse campaign for you, but unfortunately John and Obama don't have an ex-President for a spouse. I love Bill Clinton. I don't like Hillary. There are people who love Hillary and those who don't like her. There's really no middle ground with her. She's too divisive and Bill Clinton just needs to chill.
You were not the first black President. The writer who said that owes black people a big apology. What an stupid thing to say when you look at it in retrospect. Bill Clinton should stay the respectable President he was and he's pushing it here. He wasn't all over the place attacking another candidate until his wife lost in Iowa. No other Candidate's spouse attacks other candidates except for Bill Clinton. Stop it Bill, let your little wife fight her own battles.

Those of you Clinton haters,

Face it: HILLARY is head and shoulders above the field. OBAMA is simply not ready. He is all rhetoric and little substance.

As a Centrist Independent, I may back Obama if he wins the Democratic nomination, but boy will he need a lot of hand-holding! He is fantasizing if he thinks that woozy-fuzzy talk is what America needs to move forward on Health Care, Immigration, and all the other thorny issues that plague our country.

The Republicans are hating on HILLARY b/cos they are SORE AFRAID of the Clinton SMARTS! They'll lose every time against a Clinton, and this country will see NEW FORWARD PROGRESS!!!

Go HILLARY!

Obama is not what you think! STOP babying him. If he can't hold his own now how will he hold his own against all the Countries that hate us after the Bush nightmares of the last 8 years???? Wake up people!

Bill is right right to support his wife. Please stop spinning for Obama and make it look as if he were an angel. The guy is probably a good candidate but stop giving him a free pass. His policies, his votes and everything else need to be scrutinized just as it is being done for any other candidate.

I am hoping for a Clinton President / Obama VP ticket next election, so that there are two historical firsts in 2009. However, any of the democratic candidates would be acceptable though, and much preferred to any war mongering, overspending Republican.

Clinton(s) is / are the best choice because as a team they have proven they can eliminate the deficit, create jobs at home, understand the health care crisis, and can accomplish relief on America's myriad of Bush problems (they cleaned up after the last Bush!).

Those Dems who would vote in any Republican because the Clinton's past personal lives (if those aren't really Rep posers?) need to grow up. You don't hire a carpenter or mechanic based upon his morals or relationship with his wife – that is his / her business. The same should apply to the Presidency. The candidate best for the job should be chosen people. If anyone can bring back American prosperity (and Clinton's can) – they should get the job. Hillary and Bill are not perfect (there was only ever one man who was), but she is indisputably the BEST CHOICE for President.

God Bless Hillary, and all the candidates today, for all they put up with personally and professionally to prepare for this position, and for choosing to go through this process to serve American citizens. I pray that Americans can remain strong until Bush is out of office, and that American incurs minimal additional damage to our economy until that can occur. AMEN

I'm a lifelong Democrat who USED to think the world of the Clintons – no more though. If Hillary gets the nod for the Democratic nomination, I'm hoping for a Bloomberg/Obama Independent ticket – if not, I just will pass on marking any box for President come next November.

Making the Dems look like a bunch of racists idiots is easy. The Dems are divided and demoralized. Save your vote and make it count. Come on over to the Ron Paul camp where you can make a difference! We welcome all people who believe this country needs to get back to the principles upon which it was founded!

First of all, it's obvious that Hillary is using Bill as her attack dog. Before each primary Bill comes out and makes highly negative, critical attacks on Obama. Hillary gets to play miss innocent at the debates, if she gets attacked, she pulls out the woman victim card.

Obama's campaign has been much more positive, his message of unity resonates with young voters, his message resonates with independents and even some fed-up Republicans. His Presidency can unite this country, hers never will. Obama can build the coalition needed to solve our nation's problems. We need a leader who can unite, not Washington insider.

Hillary is truly a talented POLITICIAN . This is EXACTLY what I want a change from . Politicians who spin the truth and distract American voters So the facts become less important then who's winning at the lastest conflict. With everyone distacted Hillary doesn't have to explain how with her " 35 years of experience" she (admitedly) voted wrong on very important issues . Including her vote on the war.

Bill, you've already served as President…give it a rest and let the candidates take it from here…please, try to keep what little dignity you have…

Obama and/or Edwards 08 or whichever Republican is running…I WILL NEVER VOTE FOR ANOTHER CLINTON!

All said and done Barack is like the last nominee the dems had he is far too serious.
Yes personality is important when you have to deal with other people.
Did Obama even smile once last night.

To Jay at 11:47. Are you new to this website? If not, you're not paying attention. The media has rehashed everything about the Clinton's for years. Do you not read the statements on this website? pfffftt I haven't seen one person come up with anything that hasn't been out for years.

Independent, and proud of it.

Don't you people get it? If Hillary is elected, all we get is four years of republican fillibusters blocking anything, really anything she might try to achieve – a vote for Hillary is a vote for more of what i am soooo tired of.

I agree with an earlier comment that Obama has been given a free ride from the press until now. Nice to see some fair coverage of all the candidates.

You would think the country would finally just be sick enough of the Clintons to get rid of Bill and her Hag. I'm undecided in the race, but I can tell you for sure that I want no part of that legacy back in the White House.

I can't believe the vitriol being spewed on this board! Let's keep it simple people – John Edwards should have had the nomination – but for whatever reason – the two "celebrity" candidates have taken all the attention – and out of Hillary and Obama – Hillary has more experience, is more articulate and is better able to be president at this time – Obama is too YOUNG too ARROGANT and TOO INEXPERIENCED! He will have his day and it is not right now – And REGARDLESS any of the three is EXPONENTIALLY more qualified than the idiot we collectively voted in for the last 8 years. If you are a democrat do yourself a favor and TRY to stay focused on the prize...

i was an undecided voter until now. i'm sick of the clinton's dirty politics. yes obama does have to learn how to stand up for himself and i understand bill is trying to support his wife but bill clinton can't just attack obama by no means in order to get votes. you can just just twist a guy's words around and expect us to actually believe that it is true. if obama says he did not support the war from the start then he didn't. obama makes a good point when says he's not sure who he's runnung against. its like the clintons planned this and they are trying to play mind games with obama. well your not fooling anyone.

Last p.m., Charlie Rosere-ran an interview with one of our most distinguished and respected historians, John Hope Franklin. How wonderful to hear, once again, that Bill Clinton named him chair of the Presidential Advisory Council on Race....yes way back while Clinton was President. The focus of the Council was "ONE AMERICA".... Obama, you can't re-write history.

What IS President William Clinton's AGENDA?
One step closer to being involved with Executive decisions again?
Hillary takes back seat to Bill everytime they are together, you can see it in her demeanor. I'm tired of hearing from him (YAWN).

As someone who likes and has a lot of respect for Bill Clinton, I have been disappointed in his recent behavior in this election. I truly hope that he stops the mudslinging and let's this election be judged on the issues.

What's the relationship between CNN and Hillary Clinton? There is this obvious preferential treatment of her over her chief rival in this campaign; it' repugnant and
and divisive. Why positively editing her comments while the reverse is true for her competitor's. Come on.... Should not you be unbiased in informing the public rather than erroneously inluencing them? Be real.

here we go again....CNN gets quotes from hillary and OUR EX-PRESIDENT AND none posted by Obama....

what is with that?....all media get reactions and founds the clintons by not obama...

oh i get it ONLY IN DEBATES....

I don't think he made a mistake. and he did try to eplain the present votes In Illinois the rule is to vote present if you have concerns with the vote. This is where people to fail to realize that there are different rules for different states. Now if you come to NC you would probably think the system is really screwed up. Especially if we have a law on the books that you can take your wife down to the court house and beat her on sundays. No one has ever taken it off. go figure

Wake up everyone! Isn't this how this country inherited George Bush. A steady drumbeat against the Clinton's and absolutely no light in the Bushes. Now we are in a mess. If you forget your actions in the past, you will repeat them in the future.

I am a black woman – Democrat. Shine the light on everyone. We have a lot at stake here in who will be the next President of the United States. The games are over.....we are approaching serious times.

Wisdom

Roger....guessing hearing problem or Hillary supporter (either way medical help is required)

When all the media was bashing Hillary including democrat leaders after Iowa, what is wrong if Bill campaigns for Hillary? Obama is not a "god" that whatever he preaches should not be questioned? He ctritisized Hillary for her Iraq vote several times, that was okey! But, when his positions have changed from 2002 to 2007, that's not Fairy Tale? Bill rightly showed him his place. You just entered a senate, and wants everyone to listen to you, and hand over the nomination just like that. Thats not going to happen!

THIS IS THE PROBLEM WITH DEMS>. THEY ALWAYS CROSS PARTY LINES TO VOTE A CRONY. EVEN IF I HAVE A CRONY IN THE HOUSE, I WILL STAND BY. LIKE YOUR KIDS, YOU ALWAYS SUPPORT THEM. NO ONE IS PERFECT; BUT I HAVE SEEN THE CLINTONS VERY REASONNABLE ABOUT THE COUNTRY BUSINESS. EVERYONE HAS DIRT IN THE BAG; INCLUDING YOU. FACE YOURSELF IN A MIRROR AND REVIEW ALL PERSONAL THINGS YOU DID WRONG IN YOUR LFE. I AM SURE YOU ARE ASHAMED OF A LOT OF THEM LKE I AM; BUT ALWAYS I WILL FIGHT FOR MY CHILDREN BECAUSE THEY REFLECT ME.

BUSH AND CO WILL STAND BY THEIR MEN NO MATTER WHAT AND WILL BEAT DEMS AS THEY DID!

POLITICS IS NOT LOVE OR FAMILY. IT IS COUNTRY BUSINESS!

The same people who put George Bush in the White House for 8 years are the same people trying to put Billary in there. I use to really admire the Clintons but years in politics have changed them for the worse. They are horrible people and they are not anyone I would ever vote for. Bill can't keep his mouth shut. Someone needs to remind him that he was the "former" president. And Hillary is so good at her evil tatics it's scary. What's more scary is that she seems to enjoy it. Notice her smile at the debate. She's scary. I'm afraid that they only thing that the Clintons have done at this point is suceeded in dividing the democrats and ensuring that a democrat will never make it in the white house in 09. I'll vote anyone but Hillary if she is on the ticket. What a liar and a disappointment she has turned out to be.

After the debate last night, I'm sure I WILL NEVER VOTE FOR ANOTHER CLINTON AGAIN! Hillary was caught in lies and false attacks, This intentional attempt to distort Obama's charater has lost her a lot off support in the African American Community.

Obama please leave Bill alone. He is starting to look crazy, please don't join him.

From the New York Times (Hillary's 'home state' paper)
"The strategic shift intensifies a new dynamic in the race: Mrs. Clinton’s campaign this week in South Carolina is essentially running Mr. Clinton against Mr. Obama."

The Clintons are taking a page straight out of the George W. Bush campaign handbook and are waging war in the form of attacks against their party rival. This seems very familiar to Dubya's handling of McCain in 2000.

Bush, Clinton, Bush...Clinton?? Doesn't America deserve a change from politics as usual?

I think I will vote for the GOP if Billary gets the nomination.
Bill Clinton just go away.

I agree with aisha.

Obama and his backers are throwing temper tantrums because Hillary is winning and Barack can't stand the heat.

Even though, the MEDIA candycoats him while making Hillary out to look bad no matter what she does.

If she laughs, "she's a cackling witch"

If she frowns, "she's cold and calculating"

If she cries, "she is weak"

If she raises her voice, "she is shrill and angry"

If she does ANYTHING, she loses to these people. They hate her for NO REASON, but pure hate.

Hillary Clinton has never done anything to anyone that would warrant that much hatred and ill treatment.

GO HILLARY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I hope you wipe up the map with the Republicans on Election Day.

The most hilarious part of all of this is that until old bulbous nose Billo got into the attack dog mode on behalf of his dear wife, she was losing the race. But the passionate husband (who cheated on his lovely wife) comes to her defense to beat up on the bad guys. Truly touching. So, for all the women who support Hillary, I have one question. Can't she do it without a man? Apparently not! What a great statement about leadership for women. What a crock!

Obama seemed to have difficulty explaining his health care plan or even the 120+ votes he voted as "PRESENT". Unfortunately, he made a mistake of running this year. With little bit of experience, he would have had a real good shot in 2012 or 2016. I think he blew it.

You know what would be funny and shameful to the Hillary camp. If Obamo was to come out and say who whe would choose as his running mate if he was to win and indicated that It was going to be a woman. Hillary and Bill would fill like crap. Yes Hillary is getting a lot of women votes but just imagine if he chose Senator Barbarb Boxer as his running Mate. Ms. Boxer is class and very well liked by a lot of women. She has been in the Senate for over 10 years. That would put Hillary to shame. There would be someone with more knowlege than her.

I am a black woman that live is NC and I have really appreciated what Bill C. has done for african americans but enough is enough. I also look at it this way. This country has been ran by the Bush's and Clintons for 20 years now (Bush sen 4 yrs .... Clinton 8 yrs and Bush Jr 8 years) It is time for a change. I am not choosing Obama because he is black, I choose him because he is really rallying for the people as a whole and not for race, creed or gender.

What baffles me over this whole thing is that so many people are endorsing him from the senate because they like him. No one appears to be endorsing Hillary and she keeps saying she is doing this and that in the senate.. Evidently she is not doing to well in the senate herself. Therefore, in my eye if you have some of the most influential people in the senate and they all appear to be endorsing him, that tells you a lot about hillary. And you can never get her to answer a question, she only tell you what she wants you to hear but never directly answers the questions asked of her.

Bill, you're not running for president - your wife is! So stay out of it! You've had your power, now your power-hungry wife is grabbing for more.

I for one have had it with these presidential "dynasties." Let's get rid of the Bushes AND the Clintons. It's time for some new blood in Washington.

Go, Obama!

As a life long republican and hispanic, the thought of voting for a democrat has been the most out of my mind possibility until this election. Ronald Reagan inspired me to become an american citizen back in 1986 and I've voted in every election since then. His inspiration made me feel proud to be an American not necessarily his political ideas. I do not want to be put into a situation this election cycle where I'll find it impossible to vote for a democrat and that is exactly what I and thousands of us across this country will be find ourselves should a Clinton or Clintons be at the head of the ticket. What good will it serve our nation at this critical moment in history to dial the clock back in time and begin with a President who on her 1st day will start with a deeply divided Congress and people. Negatives are important in this election more than ever and the Clinton's bring a tremendous amount of that to the next administration and this country. For those of you who support Hillary, if you want to hand the republicans a victory they do not deserve, then just insist on refusing to take notice of the comments on these boards. The is just the bare facts. I believe this country needs a new beginning a freshness of spirit and of hope . What specific piece of legislation has the name of Hillary Clinton as the author after 7 yrs in the Senate? Obama is the future believe it and let this country heal after the division of Bushes and Clintons...

Last nights arguments were awful!!!! For the democrats, as a party, this looks bad.I do not completly blame the candidates. I blame the moderators.

Did any one else notice that almost every question in the 1st half, contained another candidates earlier remarks. Every question was set up to start the arguing, and then was left to run amuck for way to long.

The last two democratic debates have been the worst debates I have ever seen. The networks are going way to far to CREATE news.

Bill Clinton is being ridiculous. This just shows how great Obama did in the debate that BOTH Hillary and Bill are comming out with more lies and spin in two different statements at the same time. Horrible politics.

This is why we need someone like Obama.

Please let obama lead this country 'cause he is more than good enough and we don't want a president who already sereve this country.

If hillary can't handle Barack on her own, How is she going to handle Chavez and Putin? Is bill going to attend all foreign policy meeting with other heads of state. Obama needs to tie Bill and Hillary together and start blasting Bill on his very good character!!

It's kind of a tough choice for me between these two. So much of Hillary's behavior seems to be posturing, I'm not sure I can trust her. On the other hand, I'm not too comfy with Obama's lack of experience. He was a State Senator only four years ago!

I do think Hill would make the better Prez. Oh well . . . I guess I don't have to like her to vote for her.

Bill Clinton has every right to fight for the woman that stood next to him in trial and tribulation. Its what any and every spouse should do for each other. Anything else would be unamerican.

Bill Clinton has gone from being my idol to a totally swarmy politician in the matter of three weeks. He needs to stop running his mouth and let Hillary win or lose on her own merits.

I really hope the Democratic party will close the door on this and choose a different direction in '08.

And as far as the great economy under Clinton – he inherited that economy and his budget surplus from the 12 years of Republican presidents that came before him: Ronald Reagan and George Bush Sr. Reagan inherited a defecit from Jimmy Carter that he turned into a huge surplus and passed on. The Clintons didn't hit a triple, they were born on third base.

"Before we elected this moron we had No war, No debt, the economy was doing great, and oh yeah everyday more jobs were NOT leaving the U.S."

Hey Brad – I got news for you – look it up – jobs WERE leaving the US under Clinton. a) He signed in NAFTA. b) He expanded the H-1 and L-1visa programs to allow millions of foreigners to come here, mostly from India and China, and take millions of US jobs, mostly in computers, telecommunications, and IT. c) Both Clintons favor outsourcing – your girl Hillary brought the #1 outsourcer of US jobs to India into NY – TATA Consulting. They employ 10 people in NY. They outsource $4 BILLION in US jobs annually. All FACTS. Look them up.

So don't give me how great it was under the Clintons. I'm an ex-IT professional, thanks to the Clintons.

Bill, please stop these nonsense. Please don’t let me loose the little bit respect I have left for you. We should have a least amount of civility in our act.

This process is really sad and disheartening. I would like to remind people that we are getting a taste of HRC's White House. Do we want this again? America wake up. I thought this was Hillary vs. Barack vs. John. I know it is very tough for us to dispense with our old ways. I don't want us talking about the Clintons for the next 8 years. If we elect HRC and have to go through a bunch of scandals again, I don't want American poeple to complain because we have an opportunity to change the political landscape. Barack's and John's candidacy is about the future and we as Americans have an opportunity to change the future. If we don't, we have only ourselves to blame. This battle is no longer about the candidates. It's about us. WAKE UP!!!

When I see dishonest attacks on Obama I have to wonder what guarantee Bill offers the American public that if Hillary becomes president his sexual acting out will not go center stage again and distract the country from making real progress. You may accuse me of being unfair, mean for asking the more Bill does this, the more we are going to hear this somewhat legitimate question – and not from me a reasoned liberal democrat.

Voters should take note of how candidates back up their claims. The South Carolina debates heated things up for Obama and Clinton. Instead of evaluating the candidates at face value, ignoring the comments between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, by April 1st, voters will have the veil lifted from their eyes and will give credence to what Bill and Hillary are saying.. it's not just hot air and smear tactics. Seriously Obama talks a good line, but like it or not, Hillary has an ace up her sleeve.

To Shelly Lee

I say vote for HIllary, we get 2 for the price of one!!!!

It would make it easier on the judicial system this time around if they are both in court together this time. It will save the taxpayers money. Plus it takes two more criminals off the street.

This is one of the most prevalent issues with the U.S. electorate today. More registered voters care about petty arguments such as the current feud between Senator Clinton and Senator Obama rather than their policies. Both have solid political agendas and policies to reform the health care system and make college tuition more affordable for the middle class, but no one seems to care about it. I'm in favor of Senator Clinton's proposed tax cuts on the middle class to make a college affordable for lower income families and the legislation she's introduced to promote universal, affordable health care. Democratic voters have to focus on who will have the most empirically effective agenda once they get into office, and the candidate who will be more aggressive about their initiatives, everything else (race, gender, Senator Clinton's husband) are all irrelevant and have no place in a legitimate political debate concerning individuals vying for the presidency. That being said, would anyone, would any candidate, besides Jon Edwards, be willing to discuss policy and current affairs rather than their opponents legacies in politics.

This primary season has reminded me of why I, although a staunch liberal, will never call myself a Democrat. A blind man could see that Obama has mass appeal whereas Hillary creates mass division.

It is obvious to me that many in the Democratic party did not really have a problem with Rove style tactics, their only problem was that it was a republican using these tactics, not a democrat.

I predict the Democrats will once again defy all odds and loose the general election in '08.. What a bunch of losers.

Dave, I agree all the way

I am so sick and tired of the same old divisive politics it seems that the Clintons' teams is running. They is tearing the Democrats apart just to win. WOW I wander what kind of president shell be. I talk to so many Democrats that are so disgusted with the Clintons campaign, they said if she win they will think about voting Republican.

what obama wants is that bill no show up to hillary,s campaign because people do vote more when he is around ,just like he brought oprah to iowa on his campaign and he won ,so hillary was fighting against oprah or obama at that time when oprah got criticized for being racist ,she never showed up again and obama lost so now he is wining ang complaining because he wants to win and he cant .

My god, who is running, Bill or Hillary? There is nothing wrong someone supporting you however this is far past the line. If you want to be the most powerful figure in the world, you won't get my vote by using a handicap. My vote goes to who ever can stand on there own two feet.

“I thought he was running against me for a while there in Nevada when he said that Republicans had most of the new ideas, and you had to challenge the conventional wisdom of the 90s. I thought we challenged the conventional wisdom of the 90s,” said Clinton.

He also hinted again that Obama specifically targeted

THIS IS WHY HILLARY WILL LOSE! NOONE WANTS BILL ANYMORE AN DHOW IN THE WORLD CAN PEOPLE DO THIS TO EACH OTHER IN THE SAME PARTY?

If Hillary is the nominee, I have a choice of not voting or voting for a Repulican.-I'm with you and I'm a hardcore Dem.

How is it that Obama gets to have it both ways? First he says that Hillary'sd experience in the whitehouse doesn't count because she was just the wife–now he says he doesn't know who he is running against...either a spouse is to be considered as part of the package or she/he is not! Or could it be that Obama just isn't able to take a woman seriously, either as First Lady OR as candidate for President??????

Hillary can't even run her campaign without Bill's help. Well, at least if you vote for her you'll get two-for-one. What a deal!

Well well well. CNN & cnn.com. It is highly speculated that most people who come to both on a regular basis are Obama supporters to begin with, since CNN is supporting him; I mean, this is the crowd that loves Dobbs. No wonder most of the comments are biased against the Clintons, which means that much of the negative comments here don't really mean anything, because no matter what the Clintons do or did, you'd have nothing good to say about it anyways. So there you go, your comments don't really mean anything. The Democratic party will select Hillary as their choice, only because it is the ONLY choice. Obama will win some here and there, but NEVER a majority. Obama can fool some of the people (like most of you) some of the time, but he is not fooling the majority of Democrats who clearly hear what Hillary & John are saying. Not much to hear from Obama except the word "CHANGE"; beyond that, there isn't much else.

Go ANYONE but Obama

Vote for Hillary/Obama ticket 2008

Obama is running against Bill....Because Hillary isnt a viable candidate. She runs on his record. REMEMBER SHE HAS 35 Years experience, lol. SHE HAS NO EXPERIENCE. The white house easter egg hunt does not constitute experience.

Wake up America!! The Clinton's have been lying to us for 16 years!! Do you think it's going to stop now?

I love the Clintons and especially Bill. He was the best president in my lifetime of 45 years. I wish he could have been president forever! Hillary has all my support. Those of you with hateful little minds saying all manner of nasty statements about the Clintons, really need to grow up. I can't wait until we have our first female president!

obama is breaking rules of camoaign by giving ads in florida and he did that by giving bad ads in nevada too .he still has no answer for his friend renzko . if he cant handle hillary and bill then how will he handle republicans ,all of thenm at once in november .obama is sounding like a baby now .

Before we elected this moron we had No war, No debt, the economy was doing great, and oh yeah everyday more jobs were NOT leaving the U.S. I say go Hillary the best thing that can happen to this country is to have Bill as the 1st Man in the White House

The Democratic primary has been held in 4 states. And so far, we've had accusations of voting machine fraud for Hillary's benefit in one state, accusations of voter suppression by the Clinton campaign in a second state, and a lawsuit filed by the Clintons over previously agreed to caucus sites in a third state – And this is only the PRIMARY!

The Clintons and their negativity are the great dividers. Hillary is unelectable.
Bill thinks he is runnning for president again. They will say anything to get elected.

Go away, Bill.

Have you guys thought about an Clinton/Obama ticket? We would all but lock up the White House for 16 years!!

Although HIlary will likely get the nomination and I will likely vote for her because the U.S. needs to get out of Iraq, but I won't be thrilled about it.

During this election, she and Bill have shown us what politics in America is all about and that people who have strong ethics and morals, who don't see issues in black and white terms can't win. It's a real bummer.

Ryan in Idaho said:

If all you Clinton haters want to see another Republican president, then by all means, throw your support behind Obama because "He seems nice, and honest, and someone I can relate to." Funny, people said the same thing about Dubya in 2000.
(end quote)

Perhaps you didn't notice, Dubya won the election...

Everyone here is the truth:

We are in this situation because during the Clinton administration (2nd term), Clinton repealed the banking laws that were put in place after the Great Depression to avoid the same issues happening ever again and not have another depression. This allowed the banks to get into the mess they are in now. If those laws were not repelled, then the banks could not have been in this situation. Deregulation during the Clinton administration could cause us to go into a deep recession and maybe even a depression if bad enough.

The law repealed was Glass-Stegall, this openned the door for Citigroup to have it large merger.

Its Mud Slinging if it comes from the Clintons but if its from Obama then it just facts? GIVE ME A BREAK!!!

Bill Clinton lied to all of us. Just like they are l lying about their facts. All, please know the facts. I will not take the advice from a person who can go on national TV and lie to all of us with straight face. Experience is not worth a hill of beans if you have poor decision making skills. Yes, Barak does not have the experience of being a first lady. But he does have experience in the areas that is needed to lead this country.

Part of the problem, in my view, is that Bill Clinton isn't just another candidate's spouse – he is a former two-term President of the United States.

His words and actions carry more weight than a typical spouse because of that.

On another topic – to date, I have seen no "flip-flopping" from Obama. If someone can point out to me how he has done that, I'd be more than happy to hear it.

I think, however, that Edwards came out looking the best in that debate, because while he did take a few shots at both Clinton and Obama, he was not involved in some of more heated exchanges. It it were a political cartoon, it would be to big dogs growling at each other, while the little yipping dog barked at their heels.

Isn't it interesting that we have a former president who feels it is his role to scold his wife's opponent. For me, his comments just underline my determination to do all I can to support Senator Obama. The good senator is a uniter, not a divider like the Clinton's. We need this man to represent us throughout the world – - I'm very proud of his (Obama's) candidacy and feel in my heart that he will win.

Our country deserves a president we can be proud of. . .and that person is Senator Barack Obama!

Last night's South Carolina debate got real rancid–with both Clinton and Edwards attacking Barack Obama. I believe Barack had to come out fighting and show the country what he's been up against with the Clinton Slime Politics Attack Machine–and Bill Clinton personally–and that he wasn't going to take these smears lying down anymore. I think Hillary also realized she doesn't have a chance in South Carolina and was really trying to accomplish two things: get under Obama's skin–per "slick Willy's" orders–to show his supposed weaknesses AND speak to the rest of the country–especially those states in the Super Tuesday primaries (and with California on her mind). This "rough and tumble" between Clinton and Obama probably helped Edwards–who may be running for Vice President again. Whatever, I believe Hillary lost more of this Saturday's "white vote" as a result. Part 2 of the debate went much better, and I believe Obama displayed a more polished leadership style and won that round "hands down".

Here's the deal now. Barack Obama did what he had to, but now, he needs to get Bill Clinton out of his head and start talking beyond and above him to the nation and the world. He can no longer let Bill Clinton get under his skin, as that's what the Clintons want. Instead, he needs to make his case by appealing to the nation and the world that he's the one Presidential candidate–with the voters' help–who will provide the best leadership for the 21st century that will inspire and no longer rely on the Bush-Clinton dynasty polictics of the past. Hopefully then, more young people, more women, more seniors like me, and more latinos–citizens of all stripes–will realize that if Hillary Clinton ends up being the nominee and wins the election, it will be the dirtiest, costliest campaign on record, and none of our real problems will get their solutions because she won't be able to lead us effectively and get anything done–why? Too many conservatives hate her guts.

Barack Obama, reach above the fray–start speaking to the nation and the world, and help us turn the page on this utter nonsense and destruction. Be our leader for the 21st century.

The clinton's are the ones who continually attack Obama. Obama doesn't want to get personal in this campaign and I have nothing but respect for that.

The Clinton's are use to rolling around in the gutter and they are willing to take this country to that level as well.

If the democratic party has any sense, they will support Obama because the Republicans will bring out every bit of mud on both Hill and Bill. Just you wait!!!

Hillary showed her true colors. She looked mean and angry last night. These shots will make great commericals for her opponents!

If Hillary is wise she would tell Bill to get out of the campaign. Obama is running against the both of them. If she won the presidential election (which I doubt), she wouldn't run the office. Bill would run it. In their power seeking minds, it doesn't matter which one of them will ruin it. He is so anxious to get back in power his behavior is foolish. Obama is campaigning against three people, Hillary, Edwards and Bill Clinton.

I think the debate got way too personal last night. Both Sen. Clinton and Sen. Obama need to focus on the issues and forget the personal attacks on each other. To me, Sen. Clinton has the experience needed to be President. I have watched mostly all the debates and I have yet to hear clear and concise substance from Sen. Obama. I won't be making my vote based on gender or race, but on who I believe would be the best President to lead our nation out of the mess that Bush has gotten us in to. And thats all that matters. Whether you like Sen. Clinton or not, she does have what it takes to be President on day one. If you would just really listen to Sen. Obama, he does not have any substance to the issues that need addressing right now nor does he have the experience. Our country is in such dire straits and this is not any time for on the job training. Another thing that I find curious is that Sen. Obama can question the records of Sen. Clinton and Sen. Edwards but doesn't want his own record questioned. Sen Obama says a lot of things that make people feel good. I think a lot of Sen. Obama's supporters are in awe of this "change" that he is going to bring about. I'm still waiting to hear how he is going to "change" america. Bush said he was going to make some changes and we see where it has gotten us. The next President must make the right change for all americans. Sen. Obama just does not have the experience. Thats my take on it.

how many of these people are republicans saying they are democrats. we seem to be seeing a lot of that lately. clinton bashing is so passe...

The Clintons are a very good, typical political team. They will and have separated the Democratic Party. This is how so many politicians become successful. They will keep us fighting among one another, while they can keep going to the bank.

Aren't we sick and tired of living in a very divided nation? If Hillary and Bill are doing this to their own party, how are they going to help unite America? This proves to me without a doubt, that Obama should be the nominee.

You cannot agree to disagree with the Clintons. If you try, they will spin everything to death and back. Hillary said last night in the debates that she has been attacked by the republicans for 16 years and she knows how to take them on. Nice, but I would rather see you extend the hand of unity then what your typical Washington politics have taught you.

Hillary, you are a flake. Apparently, some Americans must enjoy learning things the hard way.

Hey folks,
Obama dishes it out as good as he gets. Obama should stop complaining and understand that he's in the big leagues and will have to meet confrontation along the way.

Last night's debate showed exactly how much Obama knows about running the country.........................he was stumbling over his words, he just isn't ready yet...................Hillary is very intelligent and can stand up for herself and us. Enough of this drudging up the intern thing with Bill, I am sure there has been alot of things going on in the Whitehouse thru the years, those presidents just didn't get caught............ I say vote for HIllary, we get 2 for the price of one!!!! And this thing about McCain as another choice if she wins the nomination, have you forgotten?, he wants to continue the Iraq War.........just ask him, he will tell you!

Which of his "new ideas" is President Clinton touting? One that particularly stands out today is Bill Clinton's decision to scrap the Glass-Steagall Act, officially known as the Banking Act of 1933:

"When Franklin Roosevelt took office, both the President and Congress knew the banking crisis demanded immediate action. The result was one of the crown jewels of the New Deal: the Glass-Steagall Act, officially known as the Banking Act of 1933. Glass made sure the bill forbid banks from getting into the investment business. In addition, the bill established the Federal Deposit Insurance Company, which protects our bank deposits....

The repeal of one of the most important pieces of legislation in this nation's history came about as a result of another Clinton "triangulation," the wobbling attempt to find the middle of the road that has somehow managed to pass for a philosophy with many Democrats for over two decades. As former Clinton former campaign Richard Morris once described it, you move a little to the left, a little to the right. I'd love to hear Clinton give that explanation to a foreclosed home owner today."

If you want to the undistorted facts ,just surf the web. There is a sea of knowledge there. Obama staffers have been underhandedly playing the race, religious and sympathy cards and blaming everyone else. Mr. obama this is politics and your stand on issues and past experiences are needed to be known. If you think the Clintons are rough, what do you think the Republicans will do to you.. If you or your family have ghosts in your closet you better let them out now.

Maybe if you retired with the dignity of a former president this wouldn't be an issue Mr Clinton.

Who is running anyway?

Sen Obama is almost right he is running aganist two Clinton. Whereas Former Bill Clinton can almost say what he want to then let Sen Obama defend himself to what was said waste of time on Sen Obama part Sen/mrs clinton say just like she said last night " I didn't say that" she didn't defend former president Clinton statement she have to damage was already done " didn't say that". So Sen Obama is right. Think the former Prezz in trying to back in the white house

BILL CLINTON, THE LIAR WHO SAID "I DIDN'T HAVE SEX WITH THAT WOMAN."
YOU ARE ALREADY A PROVEN LIAR, MR. CLINTON.

THE NASTY DUO, THE BILLARY SHOW. YOU TWO PEOPLE JUST WANT TO GO BACK TO THE WHITE HOUSE.

BILL CLINTON, YOU JUST GO STRAIGHT TO HELL AND TAKE THAT LYING WIFE WITH YOU, PLEASE.

THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE NOT GOING TO LET YOU STINK UP THE WHITE HOUSE AGAIN.

Voting for Hillary Clinton on the basis of change is the equivalent of wearing dirty underwear inside out: it may sound like a good idea, but in the end it stinks.

Bill gets more media attention than Elizabeth and Michelle because he was our former President, for crying out loud. Don't fault Bill for this…fault the media if you need someone/thing to blame. Michelle has said some pretty nasty things, but the media just doesn't provide her as much coverage.

Obama himself said that the Republicans provided all of the ideas during the 90s (Bill's presidency). That is a direct statement that Bill was not a strong president. Obama himself also said that Reagan, more so than Bill, was effective at bringing about change (albeit terrible change). Bill should have addressed Obama's statements b/c Obama was addressing Bill. Sorry you don't like it, Obama, but you knew what you were getting into. Start having a greater command of the issues, and I will start to believe that you can be a good leader…until then, you have some work to do.

All I can say is......Go Hillary!!!!!! Obama can run as VP with Caine, Huclebee or Romney! Believe me if the wives of these candidates had been in President Clinton's position as a previous leader of the free world and well versed in all aspects of the political arena, this would be a whole different race. Go President Clinton....

I am a long standing democrate,yet if Senator Clinton gets the nomination I will vote for any republican as a protest vote due to the lies and false accusations by
former President Clinton against Obama, I will use all the influence with in my power to get my friends and family to do the same, however I will vote for democrates running for the senate and congress. I can under stand now why so many people dislike senator Clinton, I never felt that way until I saw the way she
acted in the debate. She is not interested in the need of the country as much as the need to satisfy her own ego.

I have voted Democrat for about 25 years.

I will not vote for the Clintons (they are a package – two for one vote) if they are nominated.

I am completely turned off by the in-fighting between the two top nominees of the Democratic party. They are acting like children fighting over a lollipop. Gaining the leadership of the U.S. deserves civility from both canidates.

Can anyone explain why a woman who thinks she is strong enough to run for President needs to have her husband "defend" her as she campaigns? Will Bill also be there to negotiate when other countries are "mean" to her? Get a spine Hillary!

Bill is boldly misconstruing false allegations consistently against Obama which has mislead the public. Clinton needs to concede.

Surely the citizens of this country are not gullible to believe what Bill says. Search for the truth before you vote for Hillary.

Vote Obama/Edwards for 2008. The BEST team to clean up the White House!
Only their wisdom and vision can bring about 'Change' together.

angelo,

You mean helping the poor by shipping our jobs away with NAFTA? Obama has not been flip flopping, Hillary supporters like you just won't listen to what he is saying. Hillary is the true flip flopper.

Sounds like a man helping his WOMEN ... Oh yea the other Guy got a WIFE helpping him ...Oh I', sorry she was not the Pres of the USA before My Bad ..

Bill, when are you going to realize that you're not running for president! Shut your mouth and respect your position as a FORMER President! You're busy smearing Obama's record and doing damage to the party. Shut up please...and one more thing stop wagging your finger at the camera...we all know that when you do that you are LYING. Go find yourself an intern, and shut up.

loving the debates, Hillary comes across with a good straight message while I find Obama talking in circles, it seems he has trouble spitting the words out, frankly I would like to see a Clinton – Edwards ticket. I just do not think the Obama is ready yet and in a few years he might be – this has nothing to do with Race and I also am proud of the fact that Obama is in the contest, simply stating – he is not ready this time around, My all time favorite is Al Gore and for the life of me I do not understand why he is not in this race.

It was Michelle Obama who opened up the spousal comments in this campaign.

I'ved e-mailed them twice asking to be removed from their mailintg loist and they wohn't do it.

I heard Obama say with my own ears that Reagan was a transformational President something thast Nixon and Clinton were not. Doesn't Bill get to defend his administration?

Obama has made a calculated turn to Republicans and Independents, who after the primaries will return to their original nests. He sacrificed any connection with Latino voters and many Democrats. Too bad, Obama. Come back ij 8 years.

To think I was stupid enough to vote for Bill Clinton once makes me sick. He is without a doubt one of the sleaziest, dishonest, power-hungry people in history....that makes him dangerous as well....it is win at any cost.

It certainly seems as if Bill is running again. I wonder if Hillary will be able to control him if THEY get in the White house again.

Another note, I like John Edwards a lot but I think if he is going to have any impact on this election he needs to take a long hard look at where he is. It seems to me that his say in this is slowly fading. If he wants to be involved he should withdraw and back one of the other candidates. That way he will have a very powerful say in who gets the nomination.

Wow, looks like Obama really is running against both Clintons.

If Obama was smart he could rip the Clintons forever. He needs to rehash ALL of the Clinton Scandles of the pat decade to remind us of what good times we had under the Clintons. I would first come out and say "We know Bill's track record when it comes to the truth" remember he was dibarred for lying under oath. Yhat would make his red face explode and he would make a fool of himself. Put me in charge Obama .....

Barrack called Bill Clinton out with his comment (comparing Reagan to Clinton..read the entire comment folks). Barrack invited him into the "ring", don't cry now about being verbally attacked, Barrack. You played right into their hands, they were looking for an excuse to bring Bill into all this and now you got what you asked for on this one. Welcome to the big leagues.

"Psssssst ..... Errrr .... Bill ...... you are the one people are looking at shaking their heads ..... the door is over there ... yes, that's it ... you know about the door – butt thing. OK. Great. Buhbye."

Obama is the spin doctor of the century. Here's a guy who is basically to the right of most Democrats, but because he is a good orator he gets people to believe that he is for whatever the listener wants. Skills, yes, presidential, no. It is insulting that Obama keeps on saying that he doesn't know whether he's running against Hillary or Bill–this is sexism, pure and simple!

I do not agree. I think Bill Clinton is taking heat because he was president and his vocalization are publicized a bit more because of it. I have seen several articles and read several message boards to know that Mrs. Osama is out there spewing her on rhetoric. I thought the comment in the debate, where Hillary ackowledged this was a kind way of saying touche.

Sorry, but Bill Clinton IS Hillary's biggest threat, but in a positive way. If Obama was not worried about the weight his words carry, he would not be tossing him under the bus, only to have praised him a couple of years ago.

Is it true that hillary campaigned for obama and got him on good committees and raised money for him.

I give the following points to the candidates of last night:
Barak Obama 20
John Edward 20
Hillary Clinton 20
Bill Clinton 40
Therefore the president and the vice president is Bill Clinton

To Mike.

"The Clintons have done more for this country in 8 years of their lives than Obama will for the remainder of his."

You got that right what a discrace........ Law Suits, Pardons, Coruption, Lying under Oath, Impeachment just to name a few. I hear Osama Bin Laden is endorseing Hillary because her husband was so tough on him. Lets See

Khobar Towers
USS Cole
Tanzania
Trade Ceter
Somalia was a great one as well

Wow what a legacy ,thanks for pointing that out to us Mike

The problem with this is that it makes me feel very, very uncomfortable with the Clinton hydra. This started as HILLARY running, but now I'm not so sure. Who's going to be running the country? I resisted it at first, but now I can't help but see how much of Hillary's platform is some weird form of Bill osmosis.

She claims his record as her own, he campaigns for her in the traditional role of VP, and there are even voters out there who vouch that they're voting for Hillary as a way to get Bill a backdoor third term. What?! That's not how democracy works! This is insane!

As for Hillary in isolation, her attack-oriented, divisive politics make it clear that she's looking for that same slight, partisan edge that we've so disparaged Republicans for. I have no idea how she claims she'll be able to work with people, when she's shown herself incapable of actually LISTENING during debates (it kills me how she just talks right over everyone, no matter what - and that's no double standard, the other two at least allow opponents to get a word in).

Hillary exhausts me, and not in a good way. I don't want her (or her odious, blowhard husband) representing me. That, and given the divisive nature of their politics, I truly, TRULY don't believe she can win. One problem with her "I've been handling incoming fire for 16 years!" line is that it's true - people at this point are pretty solidly sure whether they like her or hate her, with very little wiggle room.

former president clinton is simply pointing out the fact that obama continues to flip flop his positions on the war ,health care,ect,ect.president clinton is not the only one who has noticed.so far ,in my opinion,obama has presented himself as a typical say anything to get elected,politician.did you hear his explaination for his present votes?wow.bill clinton did not help the black community by flip flopping or pandering.as president he held his ground and fought for the poor.his reputation as an advocate for the poor and middle class will always be above reproach.especially from a say and do anything to get elected politician like obama.

On Obama's comment on Reagan, some analysts sad it shows that he is the uniter and not divisive. He reaches out to Republicans too.
Obama's gave this statement exactly knowing how 'Analysts' think. He knew that these Analysts would not see the divisive point he made about Richard Nioxon and Bill Clinton in the same statement.
C’mon, just because he praised someone from the opposition party does not mean that he is Uniter. See the second half of the statement where he criticizes about someone from his own party. Give him the presidency, and he will say, ‘Clinton/Bush and previous presidents were wrong. Bin Laden did what he had to”. Well, trying to unite the world.

Erin and George are right on target. The Clinton Campaign is already chafing under former President Clinton's lack of control. Reports of complaints that he cannot be reigned in or controlled are all over cable news plus the concern of how to control him should Hillary become President. We don't need a former President second guessing the President. Bill Clinton's legacy is partly that of an Administration mired in deceit and scandal. I do not want to revisit that time in our recent history.

I voted for Bill twice, and thought he did well in office. Now I second guess him. He is showing that he and Hillary are still the old style Politics. Kudos to Obama for TRYING to rise above it. What else can he do besides defend himself? I'm sure he's not perfect either, but it sure seems he's the RESPONDER to these attacks, and has to throw a punch here and there to stay on his feet. Come on people........we need something different. The Clintons are showing that they are the same old thing. Bill, you should be ashamed of yourself, your credibility has just tanked with me!

I'M GETTING VERY TIRED OF THE MUD SLINGING, COMING FROM THE CLINTONS.
I USE TO LOVE AND ADMIRE THE CLINTONS, BUT THEY'RE SHOWING SOMETHING THAT I NEVER SAW IN THEM BEFORE. HILARY NEEDS TO RUN HER OWN CAMPAIGN. I WILL VOTE FOR OBAMA, AND WILL BE VERY HAPPY TO DO IT.

CLINTONS ,NOTICE I'M SAYING CLINTONS YOU CAN'T HAVE IT ALL,
GROW UP!!!!!!!

I'm a registered independent and am souring on the Dems fast, especially after last night. Where's the talk of change and moving past politics of old? That's all I saw last night.

As far as Bill and Hillary go, I have no problem with his comments, he's a citizen and has the same rights as anyone else, but he's been caught lying several times.

How can I trust or endorese a party that stands by and allows this? I want better health care, to keep jobs in the US and repair our foreign policy but how can I trust that Hillary or any Democrat will do this when they allow such blatent lying?

Why isn't someone in the Democratic party doing something?

I TOO, WAS GLAD TO SEE OBAMA STAND UP TO HILLARY AND YES BILL-WHO WANTS TO BE BACK IN THE WHITE HOUSE SO BAD-HE CAN TASTE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AND HAS DIPPED A LITTLE TOO LOW, I THINK.
3 CHEERS FOR OBAMA- WE NEED NEW BLOOD IN WASHINGSTON.
I ALSO FEEL THAT OBAMA WOULD DO MUCH BETTER THAN HILLARY ON THE FOREIGN FRONT. THE FURTHER YOU GO EAST THE LESS THEY REALLY RESPECT A WOMAN IN POWER–THEY WOULD,AT LEAST, LISTEN TO OBAMA -A FRESH NEW FACE.

ALL THE WORLD PROBLEMS WE HAVE TODAY WERE CAUSED BY PEOPLE WITH EXPERIENCE-WE NEED A PRESIDENT WITH NEW AND YOUNG IDEAS,
THAT PERSON IS OBAMA..

On Obama's voting record, " present," my grandmother always used to say, " If you can't stand for something, you will fall for anything." We don't need a president who doesn't have conviction and a foundation to stand on.

On Obama's comment about Clinton having " dance" abilities to be considered a " brother." He should be so ashamed of himself. How can black's be considered equals when your own presidential candidate defines them as dancers. It tells me alot about how he views his own black community. He could have chosen something more successful. Shame on you Obama!!!

As for all the Obama camp claiming Barack Hussein is above the dirt in politics...it was always there except the American public wasn't buying it and now they see Barack Hussein's true colors. Well it’s about time. Enough with the holier than though persona, you are a politician, dirt defines you.

All I know is Barack Hussein and Hillary keep this up, they are going to put another republican in the white house.

I had a feeling Obama was going to lose it at the debate lastnight,
because he has such a angry look on his face. His mannerisms were were
showing hostility. Then he proceeded to do opposite of everything he
claims. 'Let's move on, but first.......' 'Stop attacking, but [I'll
slander Bill Clinton for claiming he's lying'] let me attack Bill Clinton
and you'. Like a child having a temper tantrum, he went way beyond
anything he could ever claim 'other Washington politicians' to have done.

"Obama: Is Bill Clinton really a 'brother'? I'd have to see him dance"

I was surprised that it's ok for Obama to make that comment, but if
someone else, like Lou Dobbs, Imus, or HECK EVEN BILL CLINTON himself made
that comment , everyone would be screaming RACIST. But it was OK for
Barack to make that stereo typical comment, huh?

Hypocrisy runs deep with him.

And then his comment that John Edwards would receive the "white mans vote".
Nice, huh?

Now reports are that he is breaking a campaign promise and will campaign
in Florida. Check please.

Like many liberals, their true colors come out when certain groups of people try to take certain positions.....

interesting...

what about healthcare during the Clinton administration, well they could not pass it because Bill could not work with other people.....so why should another Clinton get into office....

I'm not a democrate but Bill Clinton is one funny guy turning the table on Obama by saying that Obama is running against him. I think Bill is trying to point out the adsurd in Obama's whinning. I may not support the Clinton's views on many things but Bill Clinton is one funny guy...in a good way

1- Hilary represents all races v/s Obama, the blacks.
2- Hilary represents the families with lower incomes v/s Obama, $100,000 and up
3- Hilary represents the INVISIBLES v/s Obama the PRIVILEGES.
4- Hilary has a specific plan for the economy, the healthcare v/s Obama ???
Hilary 08!

Bill Clinton is right. All you ever hear is negative, negative, negative about Hillary. Whether it be on the internet or TV!

The media sugarcoats Obama and attempts to tear down Hillary. All I hear from the uneducated masses is how the hate Hillary. Why?

What did Hillary Clinton ever do to earn this much hatred? Is it because Republicans tried to destroy her health care efforts and succeeded? It is because her husband cheated on her?

Why? I don't think there is anything wrong with Hillary. She is a good person, a smart and very strong woman, and she deserves a chance to become the first female President.

I think she'll be even better than Bill!

Bill Clinton has every right to tell it like it is. He told it like it was to Chris Wallace. He told it like it was to Peter Jennings. He told it like it was to in New Hampshire and Nevada.

Bill's anger is justified by the squeaky clean coverage of Obama and the CONSTANT NEGATIVE BARRAGE against The Clintons.

I have always had a sneaky suspicion that Obama is a REPUBLICAN PLANT in order to DIVIDE the Democrats...once again.

CLINTON/EDWARDS '08

I couldn't agree more with you there Alex. I want to see a Democrat in the White House again, and that means that i support the candidate who is most likely to win the election in November. If Barack doesn't have the stones to stand up to the mud-slinging within his own party, the Republicans are going to eat him alive if he wins the nomination. That whole voting record thing was what did John Kerry in and the Republican party has to be foaming at the mouth with what they can dig up on Barack's. If all you Clinton haters want to see another Republican president, then by all means, throw your support behind Obama because "He seems nice, and honest, and someone I can relate to." Funny, people said the same thing about Dubya in 2000.

Most of you guys here are all kool-aid drinkers..Hell, yeah, a blackman who is running for President is surprising and amazing. Some of you seems to feel so HURT by his presence, that you support a hypocrite like Bill Clinton to attack Obama. I for one never believed that Clinton cares for Black people. If he did anything for them, it was for political purpose. We will not vote on election day, it will be a massive boycott. McCain or Romney are a better choice than the Clintins. No more dynasty. .

This is simple. The Clintons cannot beat Obama on policy or facts, so they have to attack him, lie to voters, insult minorities, etc...

And the real crime is that people let them get away with it and buy their dog and pony show. Hillary is a NIGHTMARE for true progress – she will galvanize the GOP and we will be at war FOREVER.

I'm sorry if a straight-talker is so hard to handle, but Obama has said nothing worth the controversy. The Clintons just cannot handle losing, and after her trouncing in Iowa, she decided the way to win was to be a terrible feminist and rely on her hubby.

Obama is the only REAL change.

Re: "No clear winner emerging"

When the Clinton campaign pointed out that they actually won more delegates in Iowa than Edwards, they were ridiculed by the media and got no traction. When Obama made the same argument following his loss on Saturday in Nevada, it got front-page treatment.

By the way, I don’t recall anyone complaining that Michelle Obama is out there campaigning for her husband.

Fact is, it’s all slipping away from the Obama camp (I’d argue they never had it in the first place) and all they can do is watch — and complain. You can see it in his demeanor.

I think Hillary made a great point last night...where's the substance Obama? If you watched closely, he answered all of the questions with either (a) another question targeted at one of his opponents or (b) with the same 'Hope, hope, hope' rhetoric he's been waving around.

But realizing that this IS america after all, and that we elected Dubya TWICE, Obama will probably win the nomination based solely on his 'Hope/Change' speeches (that don't really answer the question of 'How does he plan on making this 'Change"? and his stinging, debate one-liner soundbytes that the media has grown to love so much.

Obama didn't perform as well under direct fire...McCain will eat this guy alive.

It seems Hillary is running against three, Michelle Obama and two faced Obama.

Amen to Ann in MO. Very well said! My wife agrees completely. Thanks for your comment.

It is clear that the Quick-witted Preppy-boy Obama idea of change is to be skillful in manipulating the system to his own personal advantage. PRESENT??? But can he DANCE? Then "I'll decide if he is a BROTHER"!

When a Black Leader compliments Clinton Bill or Hillary - Obama turns everything into a RACE WAR even while pretending to deny that he not doing what he is actually doing right then and there!

What I been trying to do in this campain .... while he does exactly the opposite of words that are comming out of his mouth! Typical politician!

Billy boy doesn't have to dance HE PLAYES THE SAX!

Look into his HEART and MIND before you decide who is white or black.
Look into his HEART and MIND before you decide who is your friend and enemy.

Ask yourself would you rather shop at Walmarts or live under a slum landlord. Oh I only did a little bit of work for the slum landlord but that's OK because it was through my Church!

It was good of Bill to stay awake during the debate

Leaving Bill Clinton home alone while his wife on travel, it's like the adult version of the movie "Home Alone". We saw the preview in the 90's and now the whole movie is ready. So America get your pop corn ready . It's going to me a wild one.

I have never seen this side of Bill Clinton. It is very upsetting! I can no longer support the Clintons.

Sorry, I am now an Obama Girl.

The so called Reagan plan left us with biggest debt in American History. Fact
He left George W. Bush with a BIG RECESSION Fact
all the facts that Obama never speaks of:
Reagan liked nothing better than busting UNIONS remember the Air Traffic Controllers, they all lost their jobs.

I don't like Bill Clinton's presence. Forget his legacy, he's already eroding Hillary's, already thin, legacy capital.

I do think, however, that Obama should toughen up. If he continues to use debates to whine "I feel like I'm running against a national war hero" (McCain), then he'll continue to lose older voters on a national scale.

I don't think that an issues debate is an appropriate forum to air or vent your campaign complaints. Everyone knows it's dirty business.

There is documented proof including flyers from the Obama campaign that reached out to GOP members telling them how to re-register on the day of the caucus. For the Obama people to state otherwise is an outright lie.

"Seems like Obama is running against me".
Well, newsflash! President Bill Clinton, he is running against your wife!
And maybe it be best to start referring to him as EX-president. This is a democratic goverment, not Bush-Clinton Imperialism.

If Clinton gets the nomination I'm voting Republican for the first time and I hope other people do the same.

IF HILLARY CLINTON WAS AS GOOD AS SHE THINK SHE IS. HER HUSBAND WOULDN'T HAVE TO SAY A WORD ABOUT BARRACK. HE MUST KNOW IN HIS HEART, THAT BARRACK IS A THREAT. WHY ELSE, IS HE GOING AROUND BAD TALKING BARRACK.

So this is how the Clintons will change Washington?

With lies, dirty tricks and BS. Wait... that seems like 1992-2008 to me.

well, gee golly, Bill, you've inserted yourself into this race so the man has to take both of you on. we may have voted you in twice but we need to stop the Bush/Clinton rule/regime.

GIve them HECK Bill don't take any of the crap from the Obama or GOP supporters. Obama started this silly crap and when he gets some of his own medicine he just can't take it...Hillary held her own with him last night at the debate, Obama acted like a bully kid if he thinks the fellow dems were rough on him just wait until the GOP rips him a new one...I'll bet Jim Clyburn is comforting Obama while he is crying about being picked on...I am so tired of his whining, I know for sure know I will not vote for Obama he just can't take the heat he is not ready for the nominee or president...

OBAMA: IF THE KITCHEN IS TOO HOT; REALLY GET OUT THERE. WE SAW HOW THE MEDIA IS ALL AFTER YOU WHEN YOU PORTRAYED YOURSELF AS AN ANGEL; IN FACT YOU ARE QUITE ATTACKING HILLARY BUT SHE IS TAKING THE PUNCHES ELEGANTLY. THIS IS POLITICS YOU SHOULD PREPARE YOURSELF BEFORE ENTERING THIS ARENA.
WELL SAID BY EDWARDS YESTERDAY: YOU ARE ATTICKING PEOPLE BUT CRYING FOUL WHEN THEY GET AT YOUR RECORDS.

THIS IS GOOD FOR DEMOCRACY. WE NEED TO KNOW YOU BEFORE VOTING FOR YOU. OF COURSE, THIS IS BILL'S WIFE HE NEEDS TO DEFEND HER. THIS IS THE GAME: SIMPLE!

And Hillary Clinton doesn't represent change because the only change that will happen is that the Republicans will have a field day and reclaim Congress. Think about it. Half the public hates her already. She can't win but the Democrats will lose the Congress so nothing will change. (I guaruntee, unless the Republicans are not the sleezy, professional-winners that they are). And she will cower in her hole afterwards as she repeatedly has done especially concerning national healthcare in the 1990's. So much for change. Our national needs bold people who will work for the common good and not cowards who hid behind their men when they should work by themselves.

Bill's wrong and the more he keeps talking the more the party divides. Only Die Hard Hillary supporters refuse to see this.

Obama and his supporters are splitting the party.

I agree. Bill Clinton has every right, as an American citizen, to speak his mind and remain active in politics. He understands what is at stake. He also lives in this country and votes. Let the man speak ! If Michelle or Elizabeth had any clout they would take it to the bank and cash in ! Stop discriminating against the former President because of his accomplishments! His wife is running and I'm supporting her ! Yes, I am a proud ! Obama needs to stick to the issues and it does seem like he is running against Bill Clinton. I am guessing that Hillary is too much woman for him to handle.

Stick to the issues and give us substance and specifics and not some vague speech about "change" and "unity", which I think sounds likes a broken record. Hillary has staying and fighting power. She has plans and has proven works.

Bill Clinton, continue to be a chamption for Democratic values and keep on with the endorsement of your wife. Hillary. I understand he made mistakes by cheating on her but so has a lot of other husbands. He is human like all of us. He too have sinned and have fallen short of God's glory. If his wife forgives him and loves him then who am I to condemn him.

Hillary for President !

The baby boomers have screwed this nation up enough, it's time for them to quietly walk off the stage and let the next generation, mine, take charge and right the wrongs of this country. Though Obama is technically a boomer he speaks more to my generation, those of us born between 1965 and 1980 than Hillary. And he appeals more to the up and coming generation, those born after 1980.

With Hillary we'll just continue the extension of the culture battle between those who opposed the Vietnam War and those who supported it, the hippies and pseudo hippies and the aging silent majority. Take your pettiness to the retirement home folks, it does nothing for the Republic but stagnate us.

Bill Clinton should stop running his wife's campaign. This should be Senator Clinton's campaign, stupid. It's a wonder if you won't start sleeping with more interns and bickering with congress instead of Madame President if you are both elected. This is her election and not yours.

Nobody seems to realizes that Senator Clinton has not credentials outside of being a famous wife. She could not give a better resume than Governor Richardson, Senator Biden, or Senator Dodd. Why does her campaign thrive? Because she married a political phenonenon. He should retire and let her fight her own battles.

Bill, you show that feminism is a joke when your presence is the only reason why she wins primaries. Let her reclaim her feminism before you make a joke of the entire feminist movement.

We are no different than India, Pakistan, Argentina as far as political dynasties are concerned. If you have a name in these countries, people love you without realizing that you are somebody different. This is not good. I thought that we would be judged by the content of our character yet the Bush and Clinton "dynasties" prove that Americans don't care for principles but want royalty. Hail to the Queen and her court jester King.

Bill and Hillary are both running for the office

Sad... Bill Clinton is sacrificing both his national stature and his global stature with his quest for power. I have renewed respect for George Bush Sr. who supported his son with his presence but has consistently stayed out of the debates both during campaigns and throughout his term...not that I am a Bush fan...

Bill has made this campaign a 2 Clinton campaign mainly thru' the "2 for one" slogan.

Support your spouse by spreading her platform and strengths but stay out of the critcism of other candidates. Hillary needs to stand on her own two feet and not call on her big, bad husband to help her out with her fights....

Bill Clinton is right. Obama needs to decide whether he wants to have a title to help Americans or he can do it without a title like MLK.

Poor guy is confused and was lost when issues were debated last night.

Bill wants to argue about Barack Obama's opinion of him as if his standing is a matter of record. But the only record Bill has is a criminal one. He is a known liar, and the "facts" are that it was the Republicans who forced the biggest achievement of his administration, Welfare reform, down his throat. What Obama said is essentially true. Reagan did take this country in a new direction, Clinton and Nixon did not.

I have to admit that by watching the debates I am now in full support of Hillary Clinton and NOT Barack Obama. Im sorry I voted for him to become a Senator for Illinois... he has done nothing but hit the election trail and leave us behind while pursuing HIS dream, not ours. Get some experience first man then run. What have you done for us in Illinois?

For all the individuals running for this great office: (1) stop illegal immigration and benefits to illegal immigrants (2) just because you dropped a baby here should not mean your an automatic citizen (3) stop the flow of jobs out of this county by outsourcing and offshoring (4) bring jobs back to the USA not to lower cost labor markets that stop living wages, and (5) WORRY about US first not some other country, thier citizens (they can take care of thier own) and protect our boarders!

Hopefully, with this new election, we will win this 8 year civil war of Congress and the president against their OWN people. We deserve jobs, healthcare, education and strong boarders and trade! We need to return to having a right to live in this country and our states with a decent and living wage and benefits.

as a woman who grew up in NY and voted for/supported the Clintons, this election is difficult to watch. Bill is an embarassment and you can't help but get the feeling that they both are outraged that anyone has had the nerve to challenge their dynasty. he is losing whatever little respect he had left at the end of his humiliating run as president.

i have voted only democratic all my life but i will never vote for hillary. i'd decided a few weeks back that, if she is the nominee, i'll sit on my hands. as a result of bill's behavior i'd now actually vote republican, depending on their nominee andd= i know many others who feel as i do.

way to go bill – too bad you can't get your egos out of the way and focus on what is good for the democratic party!

Both of them are doing their jobs and the respective families are playing their roles ........ Definitely making a difference......hope and wait for the better and let's move ahead with unity and decide being Americans

oh boo-hoo Obama. the biggest problem with Obama is he has no experience. No experience as in the executive branch, no experience in Washington, and apparently no experience in a contested campaign. If he is gonna cry about Bill Clinton holding his feet to the fire, just imagine what he is going to do when the Republicans start to go after him.

Obama is running against Bill Clinton. I thought that Hillary was running on the premise that she is a strong woman, a leader, a woman with a record of "35" years of experience! But as a woman Hillary's age that has had to fight the same battles that all women have had to fight over our lifetime, I find it appalling that when the going got tough, when she realized that there really was another viable candidate out there that she couldn't just use the feminist edge on, she turned to Bill to do the heavy lifting.

I didn't get to where I am today because of my husband. I didn't use his credentials on my resume. I voted for Bill Clinton twice, but I will not vote a woman into office just because she is a woman. I want one that has accomplished things on her own. One that has REALLY had to fight discrimination in the workplace. Not one that claims her husband's career as her own.

She doesn't want us to bring up the disgrace that he placed on the Office of the Presidency, or the fact that he lied to all of us, or the fact that he brought us NAFTA that has destroyed this economy much more so than she is willing to admit. She won't admit that SHE was the reason that health care reform was not achieved during the early years of the first Clinton administration, and that it cost the Democrats the House and Senate to loose to the Republicans in 1994.

If the women of this country think that voting for her just because she is a woman, then we are a very sorry sort. We are telling the world that we can not do it without the men. That is exactly what Hillary is doing. She can not win this without Bill. She needs to tell Bill that this is her election to win or loose. As long as she relies on him to do her work for her, she will not win my vote.

Once again, a confirmation that Bill Clinton is running for office through his wife. When will he give it a rest? For those of us who already found Clinton's presidency leaving a sour taste in our mouths, he has given us and even some who supported him in the past a new reason to dislike him (riding on the coattails of his wife).

The Clinton's will say and do anything to win the nomination. The sad thing about it is that if they do win a republican will win the white house. That would be just what the democrats would deserve if they let Hillary have the nomination.

I was glad to see Obama stand up for himself last night. Let the Clinton's know that they cannot continue to distort/lie and not be called on it.

Obama needs to get over his issue about running against Bill. Hell, all candidates have their spouses pulling for them. Obamas' wife certajnly has not menced words about the Clintons. What about Oprah. She is running for Obama after a decade of being behind the Clintons. Race doesn't have any place in politics and I wish the media would not keep brining it up. It seems they want the people squabbling back and forth. Quit the bickering both you Hillary and Obama. Lets pull the democraty party together as we need to unite as a people. My choice for Hillary is because I think this country is in for some very hard times in the future. We are on the verge of a depression thanks to Dumb-butt Bush and the republican party. Hillary is the only person with the qualifications, and don't forget she has Bill behind her, to lead this country back to economy recovery. Can't you remember even if Bill did have an illicit affair he did balance the budget and leave office with three-trillion dollars in escrow that Bush quickly gave away then declard war on Iraq. Real smart wasn't he. You people need to be smart and – VOTE FOR HILLARY.

I am SO BORED hearing about Bill and Hill. Wake me when the stupidity is over.

Bill this is not a game for the voters because you are not only a distraction for Obama which I notice Edwards name never comes up. But you are also a distraction for the voters, and I can understand you hanging on to Obama's every word. I know you are bored but we would like to learn more about Hillary's policies can you answer that for us Bill? See Bill what you do is say something stupid and wait for a reaction I hope Obama just ignores you from now on please go find some other way to bring attention to yourself, Thanks.

I used to really like Bill Clinton. But he's proven himself to be the worst kind of liar. He and his wife have shown themselves to be completely unworthy of the Presidency.

I, too, am disappointed with Bill – and am fast losing my respect for both him and his wife. Please, focus on the issues.

Bill Clinton is willing to split the Democratic party to ensure his wife's success.

How can Obama's spokesman deny that they targeted Repulicans and Independent during the Nevada Democratic Caucuses when in fact Obama said as much during the debate last night. The need to get on the same page.

Personally I dont think Republicans should be coming to Democratic Caucuses to pick our nominee.

He is campaining for his wife and I see nothing wrong with it. It's no different than Edward's wife or Obama's wife doing it for them. He just has a lot more experience.

Bill gets more media attention than Elizabeth and Michelle because he was our former President, for crying out loud. Don't fault Bill for this...fault the media if you need someone/thing to blame. Michelle has said some pretty nasty things, but the media just doesn't provide her as much coverage.

Obama himself said that the Republicans provided all of the ideas during the 90s (Bill's presidency). That is a direct statement that Bill was not a strong president. Obama himself also said that Reagan, more so than Bill, was effective at bringing about change (albeit terrible change). Bill should have addressed Obama's statements. Sorry you don't like it, Obama, but you knew what you were getting into. Start having a greater command of the issues, and I will start to believe that you can be a good leader...until then, you have some work to do.

Former President BIll Clinton can do and say as he wishes, just like any other citizen and just like any other of the candidates wives. He is a citizen just like any other and he has every right to speak the truth.

Bill Clinton was a wonderful President. Obama is grasping at straws and punching in the wind, he is not defending his case and is preying upon uneducated people.

I used to love Bill and Hillary. But their recent dirty tricks, say anything to get elected, mud-slinging just before a debate to cause a stir, and soil the opponents reputation has ticked me off. I'm supporting Barack, who is the only honest one in the pack and capable of restoring America back it used to be.

If Obama is running against Bill as Bill claims....It will not be much of a race because Bill will fall asleep half way around the track.

Hillary...do you still think he is an asset?

Clinton has very little character. It still shows how dirty he is. She is still with him. She can't be better than the slime she hands with.

Dear Mr. Clinton,

Please get out of the way. You're seriously damaging Hillary's campaign with anything you say. Don't believe Mr. Penn when he says that a little bit of image tarnishing on your part is a small sacrifice to payfor the long term gain. This image tarnish strategy will backfire and rub off on Hillary. (Her own image polishing is enough of a challenge in this environment).

The race is so tight, she really can't afford a misstep at this stage. Her calm, confident, regal and sometimes relaxed poise, which has always been her strength, was compromised in this last debate.

Do not be the 'helicopter' husband. It will make Hillary lose the strong, capable, independent minded women's vote. When you were running, you may have had uncanny political sensibilities. But, you are in unchartered territory now. Hillary doesn't play the saxophone and can't melt people like you used to.

Respectfully yours.

Bill is defenitely, no first black president. As a black man, I can tell you his tact is uncharacteristic of an African-American Male.

The problem is he is destroying the Democratic Party for his Wifes gain. He looks trashy. I feel like I am reliving the meaning of "is"! He simply is not telling the truth. He is misleading Voters and calling it "campaigning"! Enough!

Out of all the Democratic candidates, John Edwards seems to be the real, traditional Democrate to bad the people voters in the first three states don't realize this. A real Democrat stands up and fights for the rights of the "blue collar" worker or the working man. As you can see he is not a celebrity candidate like Obama and Hillary. He is not rubbing elbows with Hollywood or any special interest group. Hopefully the rest of America will see this.

Bill Clinton is acting very strange. He looks unhealthy. He just is not the old Clinton that we thought we knew. People change as they age, and he is much older. I doubt he can handle the stress like he did when he was young. If people are voting for Hillary because of Bill, well they might not be getting the same Bill from the 90's. He obviously is losing it a little.

Bill,

You stole Republican policies and called them democratic ideas. you like Bush. Your personal charm aside, you' have been leading the Reagan democrats who have finished the process of the democratic party decline. Now Hillary is calling your reaganite ideas "bad ideas" while she's boasting she has been outdoing Bush / Cheney / Neo-con in foreign affairs. You two are two peas in a pod.

You've done enough harm already. Do not disrupt the people's effort, if you have conscience, to rebuild the party so that we can have a real choice.

I hope that all of us will ultimately be able to unite behind whomever the nominee is. It is good to see Democrats passionate about their preferred candidates, but we cannot hold grudges. This year is too important and it is bigger than all the candidates themselves. We can argue and discuss and fight now (as can the candidates), but we need to get ready to come together after Feb. 5.

To all Hillary supporters, please work hard to have Hillary be nominated. and to run against John McCain. It will be funny to hear all the Clinton dirt out in public. The MSM will have a field day.

Please no more dynasties, the Bush crowd was enough. Don't put Bill back in the white house, he had his turn, give us a break!

You know I never thought I would say this, but Bill...will you please SHUT UP!!! You are not running for President, and in my opinion you are making your wife look like she can not handle her own fights. Not a characteristic I want for the POTUS.

That's right. We simply cannot have Obama being critiscised, right? Give me a BREAK! I'd much rather hear what President Clinton has to say than that empty-suit Obama!!! Contrary to popular beliefe and the spin the media is putting on last nights's debate, Obama lost, and BADLY. He has no substance and cannot take an ounce of critiscism nor will he even entertain discussions regarding his record.

The Clintons have done more for this country in 8 years of their lives than Obama will for the remainder of his.

The Clintons has established a long track record of
a. saying anything to get elected, and
b. using the non-candidate spouse for the hatchet work

They clearly don't understand the idea of bringing people together across party lines, largely because they have zero appeal to Republicans and independents themselves. History shows how many "Reagan Democrats" helped the Republicans in the 1980s into the 1990s. Can anybody even picture there being a phrase "Clinton Republicans?"

I didn't think so.

One of the reasons that Presidnet Bush got elected for his first term is because people were enamored with the idea of him becoming the son of a president to become president. Now people are starting to fall for that all over again by voting for Hillary so that she can become the first wife to become president of an ex-president. Unfortuantely, history tends to repeat itself.

The Clintons' behavior is uncivil, transparent, and plain embarassing. It would be a real shame if they win based on this approach.

Bill , please stop disgracing the Presidency! You have disgraced it enough with sex, lies and petty theft!!

Please save some respect !! Good to back Hillary but please do it with some decorum and stop the scratching and biting.

You guys will destroy the Democratic party!!

Moe,

I totally agree with you...they are really bewitching the American people. I cannot believe more people can not see right through them.

Bill needs to wake up!!! Wake up Bill !!!!

Billl I just can not wait for you and your wife to run against the straight talker John McCain. Barack might be civil to you, but John will bring out all your dirt. which will disgust some democrats and independent and we all know independents like John. LOL

it's a winner take all world. who would you want fighting for you – 2 clintons or one obama?

Go after him Bill. He thinks he is so untouchable. Hes a little punk.

Go Hillary!!!

I am beyond over the "Clinton dynasty." Too bad considering I did like them initially.

I will never vote for a Clinton again.

They may win the nomination, but they will not win the general. Democrats like me who value truth will vote for McCain rather than see them rewarded for their games.

Sad that I have to say that. Sad that I refer to the candidate as "they".

I grew up in the Democratic party. One of my first memories was my mother being a delegate for Jesse Jackson. I loved Bill CLinton, and forgave hime so much.

To see what he is willing to do to get elected...makes me sick.

I pray for Edwards and Obama. Seems to me that Bill and Hill are doing what Bush did....appealing to the lowest common denominator rather than our highest ideals.

I used to be a Clinton fan. His attacks on Obama are ruining his image and his legacy. Are the two ready and willing to do anything just to be back in the white house?

Bill Clinton believes he "challenged conventional wisdom" by cheating on his wife and messing around with an intern in the white house.

For someone who thinks he is a political genius, doesn't Bill understand this race is about delegates? Obama won Nevada Bill, not Hillary, and he did it right under your nose. Meh! He was probably napping again. But, then again, Slick Willy has always had a strained relationship with the truth.

I have to agree. Obama stuck his face in this one when he clearly indicated that (of all people) Ronald Reagan did something that Richard Nixon and umm......................Bill Clinton did not. Whats Bill supposed to say about something that dramatic?

Who is Barack Obama to challenge Bill Clintons legacy as president? Especially considering Obama is (supposedly) a democrat.

I do not think its reasonable a junior democratic senator needs to be saying this about a sucessfull two term democratic president.

I dont care what kind of Obama 'spin' you put on it, it was also uncalled for, and made a lot of democrats angry who hated Ronald Reagan.

Obama stepped into this one himself.

Call me old fashion but a man should stand up for his wife, even if she is capable of taking care of herself. If Bill did not campaign for HIllary it would appear as if he did not support her aspiration of becoming president. I'm sure she supported him during his presidential campaigns. If Obama doesn't understand that then perhaps he should talk to his wife about her role.

If the press wold scrutinize Obama the way they have scoured Edwards and Hillary, Bill Clinton would not have to say a thing. Fair is Fair. Obama has gotten a free ride from the press until now. I hope Bill Clinton does keep calling our attention to Obama's past and future policy positions. After all, that is what I am interested in....not his "movement to change" propaganda.

I am totally amazed and greatly disheartened that so many people are falling for the antics of the Clintons once again. He so wants to be in that White House again. Why is there not more being said about Bill's remarks and I do believe that Obama is running against two people, both liars and spin artists. And then Obama is faulted for defending himself. It's a shame that they have so many powerful people behind them, and this I still do not understand. Why are people not getting this!!! If Hillary is the nominee, I have a choice of not voting or voting for a Repulican.

I wish Bill Clinton would keep his mouth shut. I did not like him when he was president. He needs to go behind the scenes. He is not helping Hillary.

Except for 50% of hard core democrats. America is sick of the Clintons. That is half the reason Obama does so well. Those voters will vote republican rather than vote for Clinton – I assure you, I'm one of them.

Obama has very well detailed plans and he is all substance and no spin. Just the opposite of Clinton.

bill is embarrassing himself. he's way out of line. please bill, stop.

Obama tried taking on Hillary in previous debates and lost. It's easy to debate Bill, he's not on stage. Yet Obama still seem to flounder. No subsatnce when it comes to issues.

Take it to him, Bill. Make him go hermano y hermana with Hillary on the issues.

You're right bill....

Your oppressive presence makes it appear that your are running–again.

Please folks...take a look at John Edwards...he is consistent–shows fiscal restraint–and keeps his promises.

Also–he doesn't come with strings attached nor 190 pounds of greying, blustering baggage!

I think Pres. Clinton's response here is clever! It DOES appear that Obama is running against Bill!! If the heat is too hot in the kitchen – get out!! Go Hillary!!!!!!!!!!

If I was Obama, and it's probably a good thing that I'm not, I would come back at Bill with "You started it!"

Again with Ronald Reagan quote... when will Bill just shut up and let his wife defend/attack herself, since she is the one that is running for president. If she cant even defend herself or go on the offence imagine what else she cant do on her own when it comes to running a country.

Bill and Hillary please go away you are only doing the democratic party harm. How could anyone believe anything Bill says after lying under oath. It's time to turn the page.

Obama is the spin doctor of the century. Here's a guy who is basically to the right of most Democrats, but because he is a good orator he gets people to believe that he is for whatever the listener wants. Skills, yes, presidential, no. It is insulting that Obama keeps on saying that he doesn't know whether he's running against Hillary or Bill–this is sexism, pure and simple!

The Clinton's are right. I think Obama is new to the game and does not have a chance. Vot e Hillary

Bill Clinton has proven to be a liar. If you don't believe me, open up a textbook on American history.

He has little credibility.

Americans want honest leaders after 8 years of George W Bush.

Lying can help a candidate win a nomination, but it comes back to haunt them in the general election.

John McCain is wrong on the issues, but he speaks his mind and speaks the truth.

The lasting political idea of the later part of the last century was Reagan's less government. Bill did nothing but ride the wave that Reagan created. History will put Bill Clinton on par with notable presidents such as Millard Filmore and Hayes. His 8 years were wasted on perjury defense.

More spin from the Clintons. Shocking that so many people buy what they're selling.

As someone who voted for Bill Clinton twice his recent antics on behalf of his wifes campaign make me disgusted with him.

Bill, make youself useful and show some class. Jimmy Carter could use some help building houses for the poor.

Bill is in Obama's head. ... Don't you just love politics.

I just knew Bill would have a headline today....

Bill, are you finished running your mouth yet?
