Well, Barack Obama is getting an education in how to deal with the Clintons. Honestly, did he think he was going to come through unscathed when nobody else has?
"I can't tell who I'm running against sometimes". Number one, it doesn't really matter. They're interchangeable. Two, did he really think that Bill would just stay in the background and let his wife have all the face time?
"He (Bill Clinton) continues to make statements that are not supported by the facts." He's kidding, right?
"I think it's important that we try to maintain some, you know, level of honesty and candor during the course of the campaign." The Clintons are incapable of this. How could he not know this?
For reasons that escape me, both of the Clintons have egos that enter the room several hours before they do. They want to be President again simply for their own egos. They want the power and the prestige. Not the power to do good, Bill has already demonstrated that, just the power. Just the rush, the heady, heady rush.
The Clintons may not have brought the politics of personal destruction to Capitol Hill, but they have certainly turned them into an art form. If BO doesn't know that, then he hasn't been paying attention, and he shouldn't be whining now that he's on the receiving end of the onslaught that everyone else knew was coming.
