Bill Clinton: More Rove-Republican with Each Passing Day

How any Democrat who looks at the facts can possibly still support the Clinton campaign at this point is beyond me. Dig this quote throwing another smear at Obama and his supporters:

Former President Bill Clinton was in West Virginia on his wife's behalf. In Clarksburg, he called her a scrapper and contrasted her appeal among working-class voters with the elitists he said support Obama.

"The great divide in this country is not by race or even income, it's by those who think they are better than everyone else and think they should play by a different set of rules," he said. "In West Virginia and Arkansas, we know that when we see it."

This from the campaign that wants to count Michigan's primary even though no other candidate, including Obama, was on the ballot. They want to count both Michigan and Florida even though Hillary and all the other Dem candidates pledged that those primaries would not count because the states DID NOT FOLLOW THE DNC RULES. They want to throw away the party's criteria for victory -- pledged delegates -- and substitute popular vote in primary states but not caucus states. This is the former president who repeatedly broke the decency rules in the White House with Monica Lewinsky.

Spare me, Bill. It's you and your wife's campaign that believe there's a different set of rules for those planning to continue a dynasty.

The real problem here is the convoluted Democratic primary process. The DNC should change the rules to only count states that have their primaries between March 15 and May 15. And no caucuses, no Texas two-step. Goodbye, Iowa and New Hampshire, stop demanding that you dominate the primary process

Had NM held it's primary proper in June, WE would have been a major player in this election. Instead, we had a non-verifiable selection with far fewer participants.
Patricia Madrid was right about the NM caucus. We should just go back to a regular primary election.
It would give the folks a bit more time and basis to make up their minds and take power out of the hands of a few party operatives.
