Bubba can't stay out of the press
CNN is running (over and over) the story about Bill's "acknowledgement" that he "can't defend Hillary against Barack." Not that what he's saying isn't b.s., but the real hilarious point is that he can't help but walk in front of the cameras and make things about him. He's incapable of sitting in the background.

1. This is why Republicans will be energized if Hillary
wins the nomination. They can't stand him. And if she is elected he will basically be the President again.

13. I doubt it
Hillary doesn't attract Independents. Bill isn't running.

9. This truly has nothing to do with her.
If anything, he's hurting her by making it about him.

4. That never-ending speech at the '88 convention was a preview
He just won't shut up ... or leave. Even a good guy can overstay his welcome.

12. The Gods of the Copybook Headings
As the dog will return to its vomit
And the sow will return to the mire
And the fool's burnt bandaged finger,
goes wabbling back to the fire.

15. That's our MSM Paparazzi's doing.
Do people expect him to hide in the basement until this is over?

I thought "Everything is Clinton's fault." was the RW meme ... Some DU'rs have really lost their minds and perspective.

17. Bubba? Are you a Democrat talking about President Clinton?
Or are you referring to some stupid southern hillbilly backwoods cop? Just wondering. :shrug:
