Nobody does it better than Bill. He explained her early work in Ark. and the results of her work. If any Hillary supporters or others can watch this live or on video it is well worth it.

1. I felt like he was making it about himself again,
talking about how great the 90's were.

I should add that the nineties were good for me and for many others, but I am disappointed that it wasn't solid enough to last beyond his presidency.

2. 90's boom was a lot of funny money, dot com boom and bust

Unfortunately. My problem with the experience meme, generally, is that we can't untangle who did what. As a New Yorker, Hillary will also overstate what she did, or how she led, but didn't. She's super smart, can talk in paragraphs, very competent, but she's ramping up to sound more deserving-or entitled-than she is.

It's always about Bill, at a time when we don't want another of their co-presidencies.

The 90's were a result of what came before, the irresponsibility of Enron and more, just like we're seeing the sub-prime crisis. That we might have dealt with better, had the coffers not been so depleted over war.

3. NOTHING could have survived what junior has done to this country.
Blaming Clinton for not leaving anything "solid enough" to survive junior and friends assault on the country is mind boggling. Where have you been the last 7 years?

5. Been right here, running our small business,
trying to compete with WalMart (Nafta) and all the cheap goods coming in from China, Bangladesh and everywhere else.

Fortunately, the dog and cat food we sell is made in California and Ohio with US ingredients, so we're ok in that department - so far.

I'm also sitting in a blue city where the media consoledation act signed by WJC, contributes to our having no liberal radio, and no stations for sale.

Shoot, we don't even have any moderate radio here.

Our NPR station plays great music, but only has the morning and evening news programs, no news or current events in between.

So that's where I've been. You?
