Interesting insight about how to use Bill Clinton from Arianna
This is interesting for 2 reasons. 1 is Bill's comments and the other is the re-evaluation of Gore's decision to not use him.

According to Bill, Hill not going negative on Obama would be political suicide. Slamming the media for favoring Obama over his wife, the former president told a crowd in New Hampshire: "You can't ask somebody who is at a breathtaking disadvantage in the information coming to the voters to ignore that disadvantage and basically agree to put bullets in their brains." Breathtakingly disadvantaged?? As the Clinton campaign is internally debating how to best use Bill Clinton, my advice would be to follow Al Gore's 2000 strategy of not using him at all. With every passing news cycle, and every head-scratching quote from Bill, this oft-ridiculed decision seems more and more like a stroke of genius.

1. We should listen with bated breath for evey morsel from Arianna's
mouth. She has been so supportive of the Clintons for just ages now. Bill was a terrible President, Hillary was a horrible First Lady, doing nothing but serving bought lady fingers to serve to important guests and Chelsea, well, come on, what kind of first kid was Chelsea. Come on Arianna. Let's hear more gold from your tainted lips. You remind me of that woman, you know, Lucianna Goldberg? I think that's her name. Let's all listen carefully, now.

:sarcasm:

2. If Arianna could
she would banish Clintons from this earth.
