Would you be saying that same stuff, Bill, if sen. Kennedy had endorsed Hillary? Talk about double standards…

Just another instance where the character, or lack thereof, is revealed by Bill Clinton's actions and words. Think Clinton would be slamming Ted Kennedy if he endorsed Hillary? Once again, Clinton trashes someone who does not adore him. What a flaming narcissist!!!

I am a teacher and a middle aged white woman. I am not a fan of No Child Left Behind, because of what it has turned into. Kids, teachers, and schools are lined up and judged on standardized tests without looking at the individual talents and strengths that those tests do not show.

It is for this reason (among others) I am voting for Obama. He makes decisions based on his heart and his brain, and not on polls or politics. Bill's attempt to discredit Ted Kennedy and smudge that onto Obama is a good example of why I am not voting for Hillary. I shudder to think what she would do to the schools if she thought it would somehow help her.

And Ted Kennedy supported Jesse Jackson as well . . . 'come on now, Bill!

My husband and I miss Clinton years,gasoline price is cheaper than a bottle of water,stock market is up,dollar is strong!

Ha. If Kennedy had endorsed Hillary I bet Bill would be singing a different tune. Ah, the stench of the divisive politics of years past is among us.

It is disgusting what ex-president Clinton is doing. What would he have said if Ted Kennedy has supported his wife? He just proves how bad we need to prevent his wife from continuing this legacy of lies and manipulations.
JR

Just another depressing example of Bill Clinton's dishonesty. Does he mention the fact that Hillary Clinton voted FOR "No Child Left Behind?" She did.

Absolutely right! Bill Clinton is DISGUSTING!

Here we go again !!!!

I'm losing every inch of respect for a man I once admired….

More and more OBAMA/Edwards 08

No child left behind is another one of GWBs great mistakes, he pushed for it because he was left behind.

It is really disgusting to see an ex-president beave the this way.
My advice to Bill Clinton,Por que no te callas,Why dont you shut up.

and what Ted said about Hillary was ok in his Speech when he was backing Obama. If he is going to attack Hillary, then he better not think Clinton will not say something back. Its ON!!!!

He is such a weasel…some old crap….from a guy too long in politics and not willing to let go….if he's not denying something…. he's twisting fact to suit His/Hillary's needs. It's pathetic how he has been able to go so far!

I am amazed at how Bill just keeps going back to the well or divisive politics again and again. I keep expecting Karl Rove to pull off a Bill Clinton mask and say "gotcha".

I think Ted Kennedy would be the last person to endorse anyone. He need to be ousted out of Politics.

Now that's sad.

And Hillary says this is her Presidential run. Right; Bill keeps it up he'll make sure Hillary doesn't get the nomination. He so thinks they are the only ones that can run the Country. They know what is best for us. They have good ideas but I can't put up with their politics of destruction. We lived through that once already. 16 years of the Clinton's has been enough.

What you younglings don't understand is that the "no child left behind' was a complete disastor in the southern states. Clinton's plan is much better.

I bet you were lots better off in the Clinton years, I know I sure was. Try to remember how good you had it in the 90's before you cast your vote.

lol, yes, Ted Kennedy is the embodiment of everything George Bush stands for. It's like Clinton is swinging with his eyes closed and hoping something lands.

we all know that all Obama would have to do is open up that stinky can of worms on Bill Clinton —– I commend him for not doing it .

what did he say that was untrue????
he said it was NOT meant to fail

Well this is a strange strategy because people will see right through it. I am sure Bill wouldn't have brought this up if Kennedy endorsed his wife, but hey thats politics!

Bill Clinton speaks the truth - as usual!

I used to hold Bill Clinton in such high regard. Does he not care about his legacy?

I am not a youngling and I know the Clintons back in the White House would be a complete disaster. She will never get my vote. It is time to move this country forward.

Bill is not helping. He's hurting her! again!

This demonstrates either that Hillary CAN'T put a lid on him, or that she WON'T. Either way, it's a losing proposition.

nextprez - you completely missed the point. They aren't complaining about "what" he said, it is "how" he said it. It seems everybody except Bill Clinton is sick of divide-and-conquer politics.

Good for Bill! It is time for the truth to be told!

Well if Barack wants to say that Hillary votes with the GOP is it not fair for President Clinton to look at the alliances of Obama's closest supporters?

Hey Bill

NAFTA!

All yours baby.

All these people are saying

8 years of the clintons is ENOUGH!!!

but FORTY YEARS of Ted Kennedy ISNT ?????

SPIN IT OBAMA LOVERS SPIN IT.

Ask any teacher, "No Child Left Behind" was a terrible program across the board and in every state. Bush and Kennedy should be ashamed of what they did to public education with just that one bit of flawed legislation.

Kennedy's decision to endorse Obama because of a comment about LBJ
utterly childish and idiotic. That's a reason to endorse? I've lost all respect for Kennedy.

Hey they are all dishonest……….they all have someone to pay after being elected…..how about if we hook them all up to a lie detector at all the debates…..and hold the elections on a sunday…….

Ted Kennedy…one of the most liberal senators ever is likened to Bush? Anyways, why is Bill talking about Ted Kennedy…he's not even running for office.

Watch the Hillary trolls run in here and accuse CNN of partisanship for reporting this story…that's the only defense they can up with.

Hey I wonder : how about a Clinton / Clinton ticket !

The more Bill speaks the better Barack looks.

Rather nutty if you ask me…

Keep talking Bill…you will sink your wife.

OBAMA4EVER,
Please tell me you are not that stupid!!! Because Teddy BOY didn't endorse Hillary is the reason he is demonizing Teddy BOY!!.

Don't overlook how intelligent Hillary is……..and experienced…..why would we want Obama in the White House as President when he can't even qualify to be a police officer with his drug use??? Yea - that's someone I want my kids to look up to.

It's pretty evident that Bill Clinton will discredit anyone who endorses Obama. Oddly enough the Obama camp seems able to stay on message and not downplay Clinton's endorsers…maybe he'll want to reach across the aisle after he gets the nomination and doesn't want to practice divisive politics, ya think

Oh! my GOD! I can't believe he said that. His wife Hillary voted yes for the No child left behind bill! WHAT A LIAR!

I am so disgusted with this Clinton family!

Hillary does not have the "experience" I want, namely defending large corporations from their mistakes. She had her health care attempt– it went no where.

Our country will go no where fast under Hillary. The congress will be as divided as it is now. Hillary is a democratic Bush. Half the country, congress, and house hates her. They do not want to work with her.

We need progress. We need unity. We need Obama.

This from Bush I's golfing partner. You're messin with me, right?
This man is a serious liability, and this is a primary campaign.
It's time to move on from the Clinton-Bush extended dysfunctional family. Enough already.

DOES IT SEENS LIKE THE SAME OLD PAST IS TRYINGTO GET INTO THE FUTURE NO MORE CLINTONS

I wish Bill Clinton would shut up and let his wife put her own foot in her mouth.
Attacking Ted Kennedy is just stupid. They wanted the him on their side didn't get it and now all of a suden there is a problem?

No MORE Clintoons

Once again, Bill shows his disgusting true colors. Mr. Say/do anything to get back to the White House equating TK with Bush?!? Beyond ignoring how Hill voted for No Child (as others have already pointed out), does he not realize his credibility is zero right now?

This is exactly the kind of distortion & pettiness we don't need.

The Kennedy family is famous for campaigning for a Kennedy. Now a Clinton campaigns for a Clinton and people are bent out of shape. Bill Clinton is doing what he should do,supporting his wife. Enough as been said about when he has strayed and rightfully so but when he is doing the right thing give him a pat on the fanny. Not everything he says will be correct but when he says she is the best person to become our next president HE IS CORRECT!! Please review the issues and what the remaining Dems and Republicans say. See how the total fits you as a person and then forget your emotions and vote for that person. Hillary is being pilloried so many things that people can't even say why they do not like her. The Republican spin machine did a big job of brain washing many people with false statements about her. I have been told that her health plan included people being locked up if they did not use it….and the bull goes on and on….Hillary the one we need now….There is so much to fix after the hell hole that Bush/Cheney has put us in.

Hey c'mon moderator. What about my prev comment! You guys are totally Obama supporters.!

People are not smart in some of the comments !!!!!!!!!

Hillary is the winner of 2008 !!!!!
She is good Lady, smart, experienced and will do a lot for All of Us !!!!!!
Be smart !!!!! Obama is like a child !!!! He won't do anything !!!!!!!
Poor USA people !!!!!!!

Yeah, and Bill Clinton never inhaled.

Bill clinton is again demonstrating a nasty aspect of politics that we in America are trying to counter. It is utmust disgrace to see a well known and respected figure like Clinton disgracing what Thomas Jefferson and the others have fought for. The factof the matter is that Obama's dream is natural and vigilant while Clinton's is based on her husband's direction. If she wins, she will only be a ceremonial president and that is not healthy for the USA. We have lived with failed experience for years and it got us no where. Let us go for a change

Our votes go to Hillary–Obama needs to take some lessons from her then he can try again in 4 years, when he's grown up a bit and not so full of himself.
we've had men trying to run this country up to now- look where we are.
LET'S TRY A WOMAN and a darn smart one at that

Why would we want Hillary in the White House as President when she can't even satisfy her straying husband?

Perhaps Bill is just trying to draw attention away from the one semi-endorsement Hillary got from the infamous Ms. Coulter who told her Fox friends that if McCain was the republican nominee, she not only would VOTE for hillary but would volunteer to campaign for her. Now that is some kind of endorsement, eh?

If Obama can, We can. Oh, yes, we can!

Ted Kennedy made some snide comments about Hillary in his endorsement of Barack. And Barack has been making snide remarks about Hillary for over a year. I don't see what's wrong with Clinton doing the same.

But of course the Obama Whiners shut their eyes and ears and don't want to hear it. They don't know how nasty Barack and his campagn really are because the press doesn't like to report it — they prefer the story of the Clinton Goliath being taken down by Obama's David.

Google the phrase "For Clinton a matter of fair media" and read the Washington Post article that documents how the news media treats Obama with kid gloves, but jumps all over Hillary or Bill for batting an eyelash wrong.

Some highlights:

Obama was caught answering a planted question not long after Hillary was… but the incident wasn't covered anywhere but ABC News. The other reporters present discussed it and decided it "wasn't a story."

An Obama aide encouraged Marc Ambinder of "Atlantic" magazine to investigate Bill Clinton's post-presidential sex life. Ambinder wrote about it in his blog… but the national media ignored the story.

The Obama campaign paid out over $180,000 to Democratic organizations and candidate in the three earliest voting states, which could be seen as paying for votes. But only the Washington Post reported it… the national news again failed to report the story.

whta so ever i would love Hillary to be the president , dont trust obama yet of his capabilities , he is not yet fit to for the post , he need to learn more . its politics they say they can just to get the vote but will he or is he ? or will he be a puppet president with kennedy and all around him . he wants new change but he has all old around him gathering , kennedy what good has he done to be proud and talk of him . who said what or who did what is not a question . who is fit is the question . No ceo of a company is elected without an experience and qualification . so today we need a ceo for america and we have 2 candidate obama and hillary . and the one qualifiesd and with experience and capabilites I see in Hillary . so my vote is for Hillay

Maybe it would be better if dirty Willie would speak about family values, among other failed Clinton admistration mistakes. His wife is running, but we all know he will be calling the shots again. Bill, lets talk more about those "service jobs" you promised after signing NAFTA!

Bill Clinton is right in attacking Ted Kennedy who is incensed at the probability of a female becoming President.After Super Tuesday,it will be clear what clout Ted Kennedy has if any.

I hear the people's voice when OBAMA speaks.

It is interesting that Bill would denounce Senator Kennedy since if it were not for Senator Kennedy and Senator Hatch, Hillary could not tout the Child health plan that she says was hers. It was infact Senator Kennedy's and Senator Hatch (R) that brought that about.

People, what Bill so purposely failed to mention was that Hillary also supported No Child Left Behind in 2001. He's still putting his foot in his mouth. Oh and Brian stop HATING on Obama.

Senator Clinton voted in favor of No Child Left Behind—-so what does that say about her!!!! Bill should shut up.

Does he think we're idiots??? I distinctly remember that Hillary effusively supported Bush's "No Child Left Behind". The quote is out there - does anybody have it?

Yes, Bill Clinton does think we're idiots. It was Hillary who voted for "No Child Left Behind" and it was Bush who left Ted Kennedy out to dry.

Shame on you Bill Clinton. Please go away.

How is she going to reach across the aisle when she savagely attacks people on her own side? The Clinton's slash and burn tactics are exactly why we need Obama.

Obama supporters just can't wrap their heads around the fact that Ted Kennedy's endorsement of Obama is not a good thing. The man got away with homicide and he has been one of the most corrupt Kennedy's in the gene pool. Why this endorsement would give you a warm and fuzzy feeling is beyond me and actually it's pretty darn scary!

Being a good orator is very important, but it's hardly enough of a reason to elect someone president. Beyond his early opposition to the war in Iraq and his public speaking, why Obama?
