Uniter not Divider: Obama has supporters blaming Democrats for Clinton impeachment, turning against
Krugman, Joe Wilson, and the Clinton presidency.

Classic cult of personality, blaming family members for your troubles and alienating them.

2. I know, why WHY is Bubba blamed for what Republicans did in 90s? Where were Hill Dems...
to point the finger at the shameless philandering of Gingrich, Livingston, etc.

Where were they when Bubba tried to make it okay to be gay in the military?

8. Not to be dismissive, but Bill gave them the ammunition
Let me be clear: the witch hunt against Bill was wrong and waste of our time and money.

However, it gave the Republican's ammunition to use against the Democrats. It played to the lowest common denominator amongst the voting populace. They repeated the "scandals, dishonesty, etc." until it became a mantra and they capitalized on it.

Not saying it's right, but it is what it is.

11. The ammo? You think Paula Jones is better "ammo" than Rezko? There's ALWAYS ammo
you don't reward REPUKES by agreeing with them you fight them.

15. Regardless of the strength of the ammo - it was still effective
Maybe its not as bad as Rezko or any other demons in the Obama closet or hell, Hillary's for that matter, but it was still effective at changing the discourse from issues to hot-button topics that affected voters at that time.
