Bill Clinton is an INCREDIBLY good campaigner. Clinton quietly working CA did it
I have experienced Bill Clinton campaigning and fundraising for hispanic candidates close up.
He is really good -- totally sincere, remembers every name, speaking without notes in a way
that commanded attention and support.

I think Obama supporters are really being naive if they don't realize what when Bill is
quietly campaigning for his wife it is not having a big positive effect.

I would put money on Bill being the reason that the Latino vote stayed with Hillary.

1. Is that why Clinton's VERY LARGE early vote lead disappeared?

2. A loss is a loss
And weren't there a few pre-Tuesday polls that put Obama within the margin of error in CA? What happened there?

10. I really think Hill would have collapsed after IOWA if not for Bill. He is not given credit

11. I think he's an asset...as long as he stick to "warm and fuzzy Bill"
His charm and warmth are phenomenal, as he demonstrated especially this past Sunday. When he wants to, he can out-charm and out-electrify ANYONE. Check vids of his old campaign speeches....they make Barak look amateur by comparison.

"Mean bastard Bill", OTOH, I think does her harm, rather than help. Hopefully her campaign has gotten that message.
