Just SHUT UP Bill
"Prominent Democrats are upset with the aggressive role that Bill Clinton is playing in the 2008 campaign, a role they believe is inappropriate for a former president and the titular head of the Democratic Party. In recent weeks, Sen. Edward Kennedy and Rep. Rahm Emanuel, both currently neutral in the Democratic contest, have told their old friend heatedly on the phone that he needs to change his tone and stop attacking Sen. Barack Obama, according to two sources familiar with the conversations who asked for anonymity because of their sensitive nature. Clinton, Kennedy and Emanuel all declined to comment."

I think he's getting senile. He's not the cool, calm Bill of the 90's.

Yep, He's damaging his own party, to promote his wife. I don't mind though, I'm no big fan of the Democratic party.

Me neither. But Bill flipping out has been providing comedic relief to this election.

Already it's getting better
EXCLUSIVE: Barack vs. Bill: Obama Hits Ex-Prez Over 'Troubling' Attacks
"Sen. Barack Obama says he's ready to confront former President Bill Clinton, calling his advocacy on behalf of his wife's presidential campaign, "troubling."
In an exclusive interview with ABC News' Robin Roberts to air Monday on "Good Morning America," Obama, D-Ill., directly engages Bill Clinton on a series of issues. "

Bill won't be able to stand it, he has been on his pedestal too long and thinks he can do no wrong.

It would be inappropriate for Bill not to back up his wife. When someone who is married runs for any office, the spouse is supposed to be there for support. There does seem to be some jealousy over the fact that Bill carries so much weight politically, but life isn't fair.

ROFL...................he's doing a little more than "backing her up". I bet they try to muzzle him before he blows the whole thing for her.

He should back her sure. He should not be actively attacking her opponent and hurting his party.

Change? What change? I don't hear anything that inspires me...out of ANY presidential candidate. The whole damn thing is based on the continued dynastic power of the monied elite lacking a true course of any humanitarian values. Any one of them will say anything to get elected to execute the plans of the corporatocracy they represent.hg

"backing her up" ........... "muzzle" ............ "blows whole thing"
I have mental images now that are quite disturbing.
Too funny.
