Intermittent Rant

I’ve been hearing talk of Hillary 2008 lately and it’s got me a little ticked. What’s this allegiance Democrats have to the Clintons??? Doesn’t anyone understand that they’ve been the worst thing to happen to the Democratic party in a long time?

Okay, sure, ol’ Bill won the presidency twice. Sure, he was the only Democratic president to win re-election since FDR. Sure, he presided over unprecedented economic prosperity. But ask yourself this: what has Bill Clinton done for the Democrats? I mean, come on…can anyone tell me one thing he’s done that has benefited his party? He lost control of the House and Senate. The Lewinsky affair, which was a real coup for the Republicans, has irreparably stained his legacy and the credibility of fellow Democrats. And nearly no one that was associated with the Clinton administration has been able to win public office in their own right…take Erskine Bowles, who ran twice for the Senate in NC and lost twice. In fact, the only person that has been somehow able to benefit from her association to him is Hillary. But the White House? Come on!
