The Telegraph, which is where I go to get all of my American political news, has some choice quotes from a "Democratic source" who says that Bill Clinton is still angry, bitter and none-too-willing to assist Barack Obama in the coming months.
"He's been angry for a while. But everyone thought he would get over it. He hasn't. I've spoken to a couple of people who he's been in contact with and he is mad as hell.
"He's saying he's not going to reach out, that Obama has to come to him. One person told me that Bill said Obama would have to quote kiss my ass close quote, if he wants his support.
"You can't talk like that about Obama - he's the nominee of your party, not some house boy you can order around. Hillary's just getting on with it and so should Bill."
Since I can't see Barack Obama kissing Bill Clinton's ass, maybe Clinton will stay on the sidelines this time around. Considering how well he helped his wife, that might not be a bad thing. Then again, this "source" could be a phony. Ah, British press. [Telegraph]
Unless these "sources" are willing to make their names known, it's hard to take them seriously because this could be any employee of the Democratic party willing to start pointless drama. I don't believe Obama ever seeked Bill Clinton's support or included him in any of those calls for unity so even if this is true, who cares?
Ya shouldof know Bill Clinton was going to say stuff like that, he hangs out with Bush father and all the Bush Clan. If I was everyone, don't vote its a waste of time
If I was everyone, don’t vote its a waste of time
What sort of f—ery is this?! What does BC's alleged opinion have to do with your voting in November?
Thanks for re-reporting bullshit and hearsay! Even if true, first, Bill has the right to be upset. His wife lost and he was called a racist and other names when he is not. Are you telling me that if your wife (or husband) lost, you'd not be salty for a while? I mean, the race just got wrapped up. BC and HRC are not on any one's schedule so they can deal with it however they want to and take as long as they need. Jeez.
