Bill Clinton Compares Obama to Jesse Jackson
I swear, Rush must have a mole in the Clinton campaign. More than a week ago he said that this would be the Clinton strategy - Obama wins SC and then they declare him the unelectable, BLACK candidate.

Bubba: Obama Is Just Like Jesse Jackson

January 26, 2008 8:18 PM

Said Bill Clinton today in Columbia, SC: "Jesse Jackson won South Carolina in '84 and '88. Jackson ran a good campaign. And Obama ran a good campaign here."

This was in response to a question about Obama saying it "took two people to beat him." Jackson had not been mentioned.

Boy, I can't understand why anyone would think the Clintons are running a race-baiting campaign to paint Obama as "the black candidate."
This simply disgusts me. Obama is no Jesse Jackson. The Clinton's must do this because Obama has broad appeal. The dirty secret is that the Clinton's actually know who Democrats are: racists, and are counting on that or the primary...then to turn around and accuse Republicans in the general of being the REAL racists when we are the ones defending Obama against the Clintons.

>They don't have interns give them bjs in the Oval Office while they are on the phone with the Russian president.

Really? How do you know? I'd guess that many other Presidents have done similar things... they just didn't get caught. In Clinton's case, he had tens of millions of dollars trying to catch him.

>Clinton has taken it to an extreme and helped Dems lose the presidency in 2000.

Really? Clinton was very popular in 2000. Gore chose to run away from the Clintons. If he hadn't, I think he would have won.

Think about it... what percentage of American men would fantasize about being President and getting a BJ from an intern while on the phone with the President of Russia? It sounds pretty damn good to me. And if the same happened to Bush, I wouldn't be upset with him at all.
