This Clinton Bites
I've always had a soft spot for that lyin', cheatin' Bill Clinton. Yet I admit that he's horrified me with his shock tactics as Hillary's "running mate." The WSJ, ever the Clinton adversary, chimes in here.
I suppose the positive spin would be that he wouldn't be so passionate in campaigning for her if theirs was the stiff, lifeless marriage that detractors claimed it was. But I worry about how his intraparty fratricide is crippling Dems at precisely the moment that they need to stand up and be a viable national party.
On the third or fourth hand, he must be scaring the pants off GOP candidates who are used to being the thugs in national campaigns. If Barack wins the nomination, expect some Swift-boat tactics to hint that "Black Osama" is an unrepentant friend of terrorists. But if the Clintons win, expect them to bonk the GOP with a literal vengeance. It'll be entertaining, even if democracy is the first casualty.
