Russert and Tweety saying Bill Clinton called the studio head of MGM...

[VolcanoJen]

... to get access to the MGM Grand Hotel and Casino this morning?

Did I just hear that correctly? Now that's some hardball.

1. A true man of the people. nt

2. He wanted to make googly eyes at all the female caucus goers.

I hear he is really hot in person. Very intense.

It worked really well on those editors at the Des Moines Register.

3. Tweety and Russert ...

That explains a lot.

[Barack_America]

4. Does he not remember that former Presidents should carry themselves with *some* dignity?

That was way out of line.

Another example of Clintion union busting?

[Kittycat]

5. He didn't have dignity in office, can't expect it out of office either. n/t

[VolcanoJen]

It's just jarring to me.

Wow. Use your connections as a rock star popular former president to gain access to workers in a casino hotel the morning of the Nevada caucus. I mean, I really just find that to be unbecoming, spouse of a candidate or not.

Imagine if Poppy had done anything like this on behalf of McChimp in 2000 or 2004.

6. ?

If the leadership of a union endorses a candidate its membership refuses to support, HOW is that "union busting"? We all wondered why the endorsement took long. Opposition?

7. so, so awful that he wants to help his wife, I know.... Bush Sr, on the other

hand, so dignified, so noble, etc, etc, etc Don't be too gullible -- that the meme du jour at MSNBC.

8. "Does he not remember that former Presidents should carry themselves with *some* dignity?"

He had no dignity in office, so why start now?

9. How disingenious of Tweerty and Russert? They are shocked

shocked that Politicians use clout.

I get a little disturbed when people do politics and the Media
overlook worse from GOP.

When the race started way back when -- every candidate knew HRC was
running. Every Candidate should have known that Bill Clinton is
one of the best when it comes to politics. They should have known
Bill Clinton is the only Democrat to win the Presidency since Jimmy
Carter. That is a long time. They should know Bill Clinton is
a fighter. He did not win elections being an NPR Robot. He has
begged people in out party to fight. Example:Kerry. The Latte
Drinkers and friends of Russert and Tweety---"Oh Democrats do not
do that." All Clinton could say was it is up to you. I would
fight. This was seen on C-Span.

I am an Edwards supporter but the Medias' unfairness to Clinton.
ticks me off.

If Russert and Tweety thinks this helps Obama, they do more harm than
good.

10. Kinda guy I'd like to have on MY side...
