Bill Clinton now sent mostly to small cities

WASHINGTON -- Bill Clinton has been spending a lot of time in small-town Ohio.

He's heading to Rhode Island on Thursday. From there, he may head back to some of the lesser-known dots on Ohio's map, probably Marion or Mansfield.

Is this any way for a campaign to use a former president of the United States?

Sure, because it's a way to keep him out of the media spotlight and still be useful to his wife's White House bid.

''The Clinton campaign is sending Bill to safe places, to small cities where a visit by a former president is a really big deal,'' said Darrell West, a professor of political science at Brown University in Providence, R.I.

...A Pew Research Center survey found that Clinton's prominent role lowered public perceptions of him. In October, 34 percent disliked the idea of having Bill Clinton ''back in the White House,'' and by February, the number was up to 41 percent.

Among independents, a crucial voting bloc in many primary states, the number jumped from 35 percent in October to 45 percent in February.

...
How the mighty have fallen  :lmao:
