Again - isn't this another shoot from the hip comment that can cost her more votes? I think it was a bad judgement call on Hillary's part to make that statement about Bill being in charge of "Revitalizing the Economy".

The guy screwed us over doing Daddy Bush's bidding in the late 90s deregulating everything. He even tried to get a Patriot Act passed but failed to get consensus because they needed something bigger than the OKC bombing to get agreement surrendering all our rights. Bill was Bush Sr's poodle much like Tony Blair.

To be fair, W made it much worse, but Bill got the NAFTA ball rolling.

This thread is supposed to be about Kentucky. That is why it is allowed on the front page.
