An ex president from same party, instead of standing up for Obama, Clinton tells voters that they should not punish other Dems just because they are angeryat Obama (paraphrasing).


Bill Clinton: I Know Many Kentucky Voters Are Angry At Obama

October 22, 2014 8:21 AM

OWENSBORO, Ky. (AP) — Bill Clinton said he knows many Kentucky voters are angry at President Barack Obama, but he urged them Tuesday not to take it out on Democrat Alison Lundergan Grimes in her bid to unseat a 30-year Senate incumbent.


The former president campaigned for Grimes for the third time this year in Kentucky, addressing a rally in Owensboro that drew more than 3,000 people as she campaigns against Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell. Clinton is a top Democratic surrogate this year as the party seeks to retain control of the Senate with Kentucky’s one of the nation’s most closely watched races.


McConnell and his allies have run millions of dollars’ worth of TV ads depicting Grimes — Kentucky’s Secretary of State — as an Obama supporter. The ads have included highlighting her refusal to say whether she voted for Obama in 2012 despite being a delegate for him at the Democratic National Convention.

Obama Is Politically Radioactive on the Campaign Trail
Reuters - November 2, 2014
Obama's unpopularity has made him politically radioactive on the campaign trail. Democratic candidates have kept him at arm's length in competitive states where Senate control will be determined.

That is why Bill Clinton was out there in the first place- to offer Presidential support to candidates while giving them distance from Obama which would have hurt, not helped, their campaigns.

But that sounds so wrong as Obama was supposed to be Messiah and he says he loves campaigning. But many candidates refused to have him standing next to them.

A lot of people still like Bill Clinton, at least compared to Bush or Obama. Strangely, people will vote for Hillary because of Bill..

Rev Al Sharpton, a loyal supporter of alleged dronegangsta, is turning the tables on Clintons:


Sharpton: Election A Defeat For Bill And Hillary Clinton, Not Obama [VIDEO]

11:27 AM 11/06/2014

Al Sharpton attempted to defend President Barack Obama from criticism that he was a major factor in the Republican’s sweeping victory in the midterm elections by blaming the Clintons on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” Thursday.
Cokie Roberts pointed out how Obama “went to states and campaigned for candidates and they lost.”
“Very late,” Sharpton responded. “Cokie, he went out two weeks ago, while Clinton went all over the place. Is this a Clinton defeat? Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton…the cavalry is coming in. Well, the cavalry got beat. Is this a Clinton defeat? I think we’re Obama obsessed.”

This may send a message that swcbaggery, dronegangstry alone are not enough to win moderate conservatives support.

JC has opposite view than AS:

Carville: Democrats Were Hit By 'Mack Truck'in an FNC interview with morning host Don Imus, he used more colorful language.

"The Democratic Party got hit by a Mack truck," he said. (http://www.imus.com/guestbook/category/james-carville)

Carville did take a jab at Obama, however, saying that while this year’s Democratic Party defeat had little to do with either Clinton "it has a lot to do with President Obama."
