Are the Clintons Campaigning?
You know every time Bill opens his mouth, thats media time stolen from the Hockey Mom. Except...I haven't seen much of Bill or Hillary. Can someone tell them we have an election to win? Thanks.

1. I think Hillary was in Florida --
and isn't O having lunch with Bill today?

I've also ready that Bill said he WILL be campaigning.

Bottom line, though, I don't think it'll help with the Palin groupies -- Nothing/no one will change their minds.

6. Most Hillary women will not vote for Palin
from what they're saying. They despise that skank.

10. My point is, that at this stage of the game,
we're all pretty much preaching to the choir (both sides).

All we can do is go for the undecideds (and I'm guessing that at this time, most of them have leaned one way or the other).

I'm also guessing that most of the people who are admirers of Bill and Hillary are already in Obama's pocket.

2. See:
http://www.palmbeachpost.com/blogs/content/shared-blogs/palmbeach/floridapolitics/entries/2008/09/11/obama_president_clinton_planni.html

Barack Obama told David Letterman last night video here that former President Bill Clinton will join him in Florida for a campaign event later this month.

A Clinton spokesman said the event would be Sept. 29 at a yet-to-be announced site.

The two men are scheduled to meet today over lunch at the president’s Harlem office.

Obama is in New York for two days of campaign events, including a joint appearance with John McCain at Sept. 11 ceremony at Ground Zero.

Sen. Hillary Clinton was in Florida on Monday for her second campaign appearance for Obama in three weeks

4. Hillary has been campaigning, and Bill just claimed he'll be starting
soon. I heard it on m$nbc, so it must be true.

7. Why, uh, yes. Yes, they are. And every snide comment aimed at other Dems is
snide comment stolen from Mc5PLANES & Barracuda, where the snide comments OUGHT to be aimed.

8. They are doing whatever the campaign asks of them.
This just out today:

NEW YORK (AP) _ Barack Obama revealed Wednesday that former President Clinton, once the presidential nominee's nemesis, will campaign for him during the weeks leading up to Election Day.

"There's nobody smarter in politics," Obama said on CBS' "Late Show with David Letterman," scheduled to air Wednesday night. "And he is going to be campaigning for us over the next eight weeks, which I'm thrilled by."

The two were scheduled to have lunch Thursday at Clinton's office in New York. Clinton spokesman Matt McKenna said the former president would campaign for Obama at a yet-to-be announced site in Florida on Sept. 29, with plans for more fundraising and events in the works.

Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton already has been hitting the trail for Obama.

Please stop insinuating that they are doing nothing.

9. How utterly spiteful.
I'm surprised you want such a horrible racist as Bill Clinton out talking for your man.

11. A simple search of the news would answer your questions.
