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.

HAPPY NEW YEAR CLINTONS AND EVERYONE ELSE. CAN NOT WAIT TILL SHE IS OUR SOS, THE WHOLE WORLD NEEDS THIS NEW ADMINISTRATION. SHE WILL BE A GREAT PRESIDENT 2016
Lets see the people spew venom at the clintons. Go Hill and Bill
This is off topic but the only place I can post:
Why do we care what a small margin of athiest think...why should we bow down to their demands on removing God from the inauguration?
When God leaves our country our country goes with it.
God is Great.
Happy New Year!
Peace.
Can't wait to see Hillary in action : ) love the Clinton's. Hopefully Chelsea will follow in her parents footsteps.
I'd love to spend New Years Eve in Times Square, looks like it would be a blast!
If we are all really, really lucky Bill will succumb to the eye candy in Times Square and have a life ending heart attack. He is truly one useless sack of southern garbage that the world would be a better place in 2009 without him.
I am glad Hillary is doing this...lets get tthis new year started so we can have her in at State and handle this mess thats going on. Happy New Year Bill and Hillary.

I wish Bush could be President for four more years. This Democrat nonsense is ridiculous.

Former Obama Voter my behind.
how long will new yorkers continue to believe that either clinton cares a flip about them? they are users and have made fools of the people of new york who voted for her thinking she was going to be their senator – all she wanted was a seat from which to run for her failed presidency!!!!! well, you got what you deserved – an empty seat about to be filled by a kennedy (if the furious clintonoids can't stop her because they are in a poiwer struggle since kennedys endorsed obama!!) this time i vote kennedy!!!!
Former Obama Voter has not had enough of war in Iraq, Bin Laden still at large, economy tanked, Bin Laden still at large, Non Shoe Ducking, Bin Laden still at large. Gee, Bush really left a mess like a teenager who threw a party while the parents were on vacation and some of these people make me laugh they will miss him. They must be sadistic.
Hillary, you lost me with your sour grapes during the campaign. I used to admire and respect you. I only hope your ego will stay in check the next few years. You are such a legend in your own mind!!!!!!!!
**Oh well it is 4:21 EST and the Repub moderator may be on.....
SHANE – Your right.....I've predicted this since Obama won the election......It doesn't matter who the republicans put in there to run....
They WILL NOT WIN THE WHITE HOUSE TIL 2020, period....
Obama – 08
Obama – 12
Hillary – 16
P.S. (he will help her win in 2016)
Reason ? She helped Him Win....

won't we ever be free of Clintons?
I'm sick to death of both of them.
do you think Hillary realizes what a loud, obnoxious voice she has when she talks? And that smirk on her face, it's disgusting, while Bill "stands by his woman" and smirks too. What a pair, they deserve each other, but I do not think America deserves either of them. I think it's time for them to just retire and enjoy all those millions of dollars they have! Good luck Mr. Obama, in 2009... but please pick better people on your cabinet .

You are FLAT OUT loosing your mind! And you NEVER supported Obama... Quit the BS.... you are not fooling any one, but YOU! 🙂
HAPPY NEW YEAR, CLINTONS.... YOU DESERVE IT! 🙂
I love them!!!
Well, guess I won't be watching that ball drop tonight, I don't want to see those two hamming it up, as usual, with their fake smiles.!!!!!!!
This is the time to reflect back on 2008. The laughs and cries, the anger and joys. Let's not be negative for the future holds a bright light for all of us. MAY GOD BLESS THE OBAMAS, BIDENS, CLINTONS AND EVERYONE IN THE USA!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
I voted for Hillary not Obama. She lost the election leading me to be Independent. Don't hate her but will not vote for her again if she decides to run again!!!!
Enough of the Clinton's already! He reminds me of Carter, a peanut brain, because she ran the country when he was the president. Have had enough of her to. Thought when she was the senator of New York we would not have to hear about her but there she was in the light all the time.
Since they were from Arkansas, are they ashamed of it since they never did run for anything there? From what I hear, Arkansas was glad when he became President so they would not have him for governor anymore.
HILLARY IS NOT LEAVING BILL ALONE TONIGHT IN NEW YORK CITY. TOO MANY VULTURES.
Imagine that the Clinton's dropping the ball! Now that's funny.
First I think of when I hear Clintons' names are has she paid her debt off yet and why is Bill receiving millions from the middle east ???
Democrats seem to enjoy the daily drama...How about focus on our nations' serious problems, for which are numerous..
Govenor of Illinois is democrat, no more to say...
I wonder if she still has nightsmares about the airport?Bill,how are all those jobs doing that went to China and India,never to return?Still getting some payola for them?
Hillary Clinton stuck to her commitment to rely on public financing and as a consequence we have Mr. Full-of-himself as President. Hillary Clinton was hijacked by the sexist, foul media. No woman should even consider running for President until the media establishes ethical standards that censor sexist, gender-biased, insulting comments. Obama buttocks was kissed by the media and the whole thing stinks.
