Clintons to ring in the New Year in Times Square
[cnn-photo-caption image= http://i2.cdn.turner.com/cnn/2008/images/12/31/art.clintons2.gi.jpg caption="2008 didn’t go quite as planned for either Clinton."](CNN) - Bill and Hillary Clinton will celebrate the end of the year in the heart of a city just as happy as they are to see the tail end of 2008, joining New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg to watch the crystal ball drop in Times Square tonight.
The former president and the secretary of state-designate share more with the mayor than an adopted hometown: former Clinton communications director Howard Wolfson has signed on to advise Bloomberg during his re-election bid.
Neither Clinton has ever endorsed Bloomberg, who was often a Wolfson target during past election cycles.

Drop both of them with it.
@BeefyDaddy:
There are tens of millions of people in the U.S., and hundreds of millions around the world who think that atheism is stupid, and that people who don't believe the Bible are idiots.
You atheists are hopelessly outnumbered and are going to lose this fight. Accept it, and get over it.
Love them or hate them, They are the face of United states.
Guess I can't understand why some of you hate the Clintons so much. Peace and Prosperity when he was President and she was a First Lady who was and is VERY intelligent, unlike Lady Laura who can't talk about anything other than being a librarian and trying to legitimize every dastardly deed her President Husband has commited in the past eight years; thousands of innocent Iraqis killed and our brave military – how many killed and injured for Bush's War.
Cough, cough, choke, barf!!!!
WHO CARES ABOUT THESE PEOPLE.
This article is not about Obama, so people please stick to the topic at hand.
I wish the clinton"s a Happy and a prosperous New Year .God Bless them both!!!
They really inspire me, got to love a power couple.
Why should they bring in Bill? He has no credibility.
BABY,BABY,BABY--WE WON,sure we are going in the back door,but who cares,once you are in, nobody knows what door you used !!!!!!!!
Yeah, the Clintons are getting good at riding the fence. I voted for Hillary and sent her money but she has lost all of my respect after backing Obama. It's time for them to retire and disappear.
The Clintons have been in public service virtually all their life, and have given their all to this country and to the worlds's poor,. We were MUCH BETTER OFF under Bill's administration economically, had better security and more freedom, and the US had a balanced budget. He has made major contribution's to combat disease and poverty in third world countries the last 9 years through his foundation. Hillary will do very well as Secretary of State, just as she did as Senator. I feel sorry for these uneducated, ignorant, bigoted, hateful bloggers who have accomplished nothing in their lives badmouthing the Clintons, two really remarkable people who have made the US and the world a better place to live in.My wife and I started with nothing, but earned 7 degrees between us, have founded and grown 2 new corporations, have successful children, and are financially and professionally successful in every sense but we know we cannot hold a candle to the Clinton's success, and we have tremendous respect them for their hard work , selflessness, and achievements. However, there apparently are a few bloggers who are complete failures in life that see fit to run them down; I guess they are trying to boost their own egos in some sick way through their hatred, , or maybe they are just jealous.
Rob Stumpf maybe if you did, you wouldn't be such a Idiot. God Love you Retard..
richard rohde can I come over and watch your own ball drop in your basement?
Rob Stumpf Wow that speaks volumes. You should be real thankful the God loves Idiot's, and there a special place in his kingdom for grown men who have to wear a helmet 24 hours a day. God Bless you little Idiot.
Best to Hillary & Bill !!!
And may 2009 be a turning point for this country so that we can ALL come together for the betterment of our nation. A safe, happy, healthy 2009 to everyone.
I really feel sorry for Bill! Hillary is a hapless egomaniac "closet " feminist! She disgust me,standing there as usual clapping her greedily little manipulative hands(hoo-ray for me) together. Bill will be coaching her thru all the heavy lifting when it comes to the real world. Watching over her like a guilded queen's guardian on how to deal with it's charred nefarious characters ,with all the ugliness dialed in at full throttled. while the "Iron Maiden" struts about getting the credit,...! Happy New Years CNN !
I lost any respect for this racist and undemocratic network! I'm sure you're not going to print this!
Hapyy New Year !
To PJP in OK:
What do you mean "why didn't the Clintons run for anything in Arkansas"?!
Bill Clinton was GOVERNOR of Arkansas.
happy new year! Have a happy and healthy new year!! Please keep the country safe.. We love you both! More power! U
