Reply #27: it seems to me that all of this Bill Clinton coverage

would make people remember his two terms in not such a positive way. I suppose it is a calculated risk on their part, having him out there defending her.

It's better for Obama, because it might not seem sporting to attack a female, but Bill is a big boy and fair game. I don't think he should do more than defend himself, though--to give tit for tat will make him seem as bad as they are, and people will conclude that all politicians are the same.
