Bill Clinton in Denver again undercuts Obama

DENVER — Bill Clinton appeared to undermine Sen. Barack Obama again Tuesday.

The former president, speaking in Denver, posed a hypothetical question in which he seemed to suggest that that the Democratic Party was making a mistake in choosing Obama as its presidential nominee.

He said: "Suppose you're a voter, and you've got candidate X and candidate Y. Candidate X agrees with you on everything, but you don't think that candidate can deliver on anything at all. Candidate Y you agree with on about half the issues, but he can deliver. Which candidate are you going to vote for?"

Then, perhaps mindful of how his off-the-cuff remarks might be taken, Clinton added after a pause: "This has nothing to do with what's going on now."

The comments are unlikely to be taken as an innocent mistake by those Democrats who continue to be angry with the former president for, they say, not supporting the Illinois senator wholeheartedly, if not implicitly undercutting him.

Bill Clinton knows exactly what he's doing.. he's fanning the flames of the PUMAs and keeping them heated up... two months is still a long way to go and his feminists may forget about Hilary by then..  :popcorn:

they have to clear the decks for 2012.  seems McC may pledge to only serve one term which makes it pretty attractive for her but only if BHO loses.
