Losing It
The Drudge Report is linking to a video of Bill Clinton on the campaign trail attacking Obama. Drudge's headline is Bill's line about Obama's favorable coverage, "This whole thing is the biggest fairy tale I've ever seen." But if you watch the whole clip I think you will conclude that Bill must be hog-tied and left in the rec room in Chappaqua until the campaign is over. He starts to lose it so badly that he makes an extremely oblique reference to a nasty press release from the Obama campaign in June calling Hillary the senator from Punjab (a joke she made on herself) because of big contributions from the Indian community. A summary is here. I had to look it up because I missed the initial flap, as did surely everyone in the audience Bill is addressing: You can see them look at each other quizzically wondering what in the world he is talking about. But Bill keeps going and brings up ... Ken Starr! Ken Starr!!! Bill, if you want your wife to be president, please do not remind us of those glory days and why the American public might collectively feel, "Actually, let's not have another Clinton administration."
