Bill Clinton Says No Thanks to Senate
A spokesman for the former president says speculation he'd seek his wife's Senate seat is “completely false.”

Says Bill Clinton wants to focus on his foundation's work — so long as it doesn't conflict with his wife's job.

1. thank you! his presence in the senate would have been a distraction and a sideshow...
the corporate whore media would make sure that he overshadowed president Obama.

3. No surprise at all
It seemed like only non New Yorkers were pushing that ridiculous meme anyway.

4. Quite frankly, he wants to travel the world with Hillary inflicting his ideas abroad.
We shall see if it conflicts with Obamas.

Can Obama say "NO" to Bill?

Could see a power struggle in the future.

5. Is anyone here really surprised?
I mean come on, going from the leader of the free world to a lowly (by comparison) senator. Thats a major demotion.
