Bill: (Paraphrase) Hillary and McCain led on climate change.
To a crowd of enthusiastic college students at Dickenson College in Carlisle, Pa., including more than a handful of Obama supporters in T-shirts and waving signs, Bill Clinton told the crowd why his wife would make the best president.

And, in a move that's becoming more and more common, he favorably aligned his wife with the presumptive Republican nominee, John McCain.

"We now have a bipartisan majority in the U.S. Senate, bipartisan, to do something about global warming and do more buildings like this,” Clinton said, “because she and John McCain took reluctant Republicans all over the world and showed them how the planet was changing. She will work with anybody, go anywhere, do anything to move America forward.”

6. You will notice though... he worded it in such away to
build up Hillary and McCain... but not quite strong enough for anyone to accuse him building McCain up as better than Obama.

3. Translation
"She will work with anybody, go anywhere, do anything to move America forward.”


Move America Forward = Enhance her personal power

4. It's this type of thing that is going to push superdelegates to Obama
Maybe Bill's tired and just wants to go home.

9. I've watched him on TV this morning praising McCain - WTF is he doing to us????
This is insane. He is out there painting McCain as a "moderate" (Bill's words) and talking up our republican opponent!

Someone needs to stop this shit QUICKLY.

This is long-term damage to all of us!
