Sunday Herald Sun: 'Billary' will take beating (pro or con story :-) ) U decide

http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/story/0,21985,22034042-5000117,00.html


POOR old Hillary Clinton, damned if she does and damned if she doesn't. She seems to polarise the voters like no other US presidential candidate.

After some disappointing poll results and watching her main Democrat rival, Barack Obama, jump ahead in campaign contributions (to a staggering $37.9 million), Clinton decided the time was right to haul her hubby into the fray.

Straight away, critics accused her of hanging on to Bill's presidential coat-tails, not helped when Hillary pointed to Bill while on the hustings in Iowa and asked voters for support in the nomination process, saying she'd "have some good help along the way".

Of course, had she distanced herself from Bill, the same critics would have said she was ashamed of her husband's past sins and had abandoned him for her political ends.

But, in spite of all his human failings, Bill Clinton remains something of a political colossus, and together they make a formidable team, however dysfunctional it might be behind closed doors.

The bottom line is that middle America probably feels better that they are still together.

If that's what it takes to make a woman the most powerful person in the world, that's fine by me.
