What Are You Thinking?

Why would he do that? After Hillary Clinton has put the whole Bosnia thing behind her there he is bringing it right back up again. Here's the quote he gave at two separate rallies yesterday:

"A lot of the way this whole campaign has been covered has amused me," he said. "But there was a lot of fulminating because Hillary, one time late at night when she was exhausted, misstated and immediately apologized for it, what happened to her in Bosnia in 1995. Did y'all see all that. Oh, they blew it up. Let me just tell you...."

Come on Bill! As sure as you reading this someone is putting together the YouTube video showing at-least three of the times she told that story, all of which were well before 11:00 p.m.

The press had moved on from that lie she told, so why would Bill bring it back up again? Bill is a smart guy and I think he knows that people have a soft spot for Hillary when it comes to him "hurting" her. There has always been a rally of support to Hillary when it's perceived by the undecided Democrats that she is getting a raw deal at the hands of people she can't control. Bill is throwing himself under the bus. He can play dumb and say that he was just trying to help point out how unfair the press was to her in this one instance. The problem is EVERYONE knows she told the story multiple times. But I think that people don't think she should loose because of something Bill did to embarrass or hurt her....again!

Of course this could be some sort of way to bait Obama into delving into the whole Bosnia thing. Their calculus might be that if he goes for her on that, then they can talk about Rev. Wright. She told a blatant lie in an attempt to "pad" her resume. He should take her to task on that and stay on it for the next two weeks. That's not dirty politics, it's within the bounds of fairness.

I am wondering if Hillary supporters feel proud of their candidate? My friend who is a life-long Democrat says her supporters feel duty bound by either gender or Clinton loyalty to stay with her. ANYWAY...

So if you were Obama what would you do?
