Clinton in '92 vs. Obama in '08...which one was better?

Bill Clinton says Sen. Barack Obama is a callow, highly ambitious political prodigy who is asking voters to "roll the dice" and elect him president. I am interested in your opinion between the two and which you view as the better candidate.

Here's the similarities and differences I see between the 2:

Similarities:
1. Both have very good confidence
2. Both called for big change
3. Both are extremely popular among African Americans

Differences:
1. Clinton = white, Obama = black
2. Both are worried about rumors during presidential campaign
3. Obama sometimes seems not ready for the presidency, as Clinton did.
4. Obama doesn't have as much experience as Clinton had.

But yeah, I was only 9 in 1992 so I don't really recall what was going on at the time.

I respect Bill more than obama. Bill was a very moderate Democrat. I am surprised he doesn't slap his wife sometimes at the comments she makes. She completely contradicts him sometimes regarding his policies in the White House. Clinton cut taxes quite a few times.
