        Dick Morris says that Bill Clinton desperately wants to see Obama lose, because he wants to stay the only modern Democratic re-elected President. Admits Bill will sell Obama tonite, but will look to undermine him in October but without leaving any fingerprints.
        Clinton could sell anything to anyone. It doesnt matter what he believes, he'll make us believe whatever he's saying.

          can someone explain the whole Jerusalem is not the capital of Israel thing? Why do the dems do stupid crap like that?

              Bob, you know more about this stuff than any of us.
              If no "job in the way," what would they have done re Hillary?

              That's an interesting question!

                It is a good question. Normally I don't think you'd want to compromise your SecState in a political milieu during war time, but since Hillary is on her way out they might have given her a major role. Would have been an interesting call. I would've gone with her in Prime Time, but not sure who I would've bumped... certainly not Bill, probably not Castro. The Warren slot wouldn't have been good enough. Wouldn't want her to talk on Thursday night. Would have been a nice problem to have.

                  Thanks for that.

                  Interesting that if there is one key person in the incumbent cabinet who most likely needs to be somewhere else, alas, it is Secretary of State.

                  Washington Post has to come up with an "insider" take on how this played out. Not like there's any precedent, with a spouse of a popular former President who ran against the current President and may run in 2016. And I'll go out on a limb and say THAT never happens again...

                      She's been Obama's fist against China. She's been an amazing SOS. Has her finger on the pulse. Foggy bottom's response rate to new challenges has been really quick.

                        God damnit if that wasn't the best speech I've ever heard Bill Clinton give, maybe the best political speech I've ever heard. Holy crap.

                              I'd take Obama and give the points but LOL on......

                              Ben Smith ‏@BuzzFeedBen

                              RT @joehagansays: Repub @alexcast (Alex Castellanos) says on CNN that Bill Clinton's speech probably just re-elected Barack Obama.

                              ............

                              Admittedly, that 90 share of the Nielsen ratings (wait, not that?) ensures it.

                              I AM intrigued by Bob's comment, however. My life is getting in the damn way, but I have to see a replay when I can....
