Did Bill Clinton really say this?

[PresidentObama]

I just read on one of the posts, in my defense of Bill, that another poster said he said supposedly that "John McCain is a candidate of change, it's just a bad year for him."

I doubt the transcript or the video is up yet.

But if he said this, I'll retract every single defense I've had of Bill Clinton today.

Otherwise, carry on. Back to work on our victory in November.

1. So you were defending him in multiple threads without watching the show?

This is the second time today...

[PresidentObama]

2. I don't care what you have to say "wise" guy n/t

[thewiseguy]

6. Well for your information this is what he said

Bill said that there are several things about John McCain that Americans and he likes.

1- He is a intuitive politician.
2- He can be a candidate for change.

That is exactly what he said. Now carry on with defending him.

[PresidentObama]

8. That's what I requested, the information. Thank you n/t

[endthewar]

16. LOL! Great call!

:patriot:

[faithfulcitizen]

3. yes, he said something to this effect. I posted it. That's what I heard. His point was

McCain actually IS a maverick, but it's bad to be a republican right now. It was not helpful.

[PresidentObama]

5. In that context? I'll wait for the transcript or video to retract, but if so...

...I can't defend that.

That's bullshit. I'm not saying he said it, for now.

[scheming daemons]

Fine... we'll wait for the transcript.... THEN you can apologize to all of us.

;-)

[PresidentObama]

10. I won't apologize, I'll simply let the sharks have him.

If he said that, in that context, you all can him. Lash away.

But I'll wait.

[scheming daemons]

4. Yep.. he said that.... but that wasn't the worst part...

He said McCain's pick of Palin was smart and was made because McCain is such an "intuitive" politician.

[PresidentObama]

7. Yikes, I'll wait for the video....but if true, maybe he should have Hillary do the interviews.

That's not helpful.

[scheming daemons]

9. I agree... Hillary has been awesome for Obama.....

Bill has been doing to Obama what he did to Hillary.

Sabotaging the campaign.


He ruined his wife's campaign... now he's working on Obama's.

11. NO - He said MaCain picked Palin "to demonstrate that he COULD BE a change candidate" quote

[PresidentObama]

12. Are you paraphrasing or do you have a link?

Thanks, though.

I'll wait to read what he said, and in what context.

[kid a]

17. Quote - they were discussing the Palin pick - Bill was explaining it politically

[ShortnFiery]

13. I'm quite certain that we'll see the YouTube and The GOP Video ad of Bill Clinton's "exact words"

Thanks Bubba. :(

[thewiseguy]

14. No. He said that he and Americans like McCain

Because he is an intuitive politician and he can be a candidate for change.

There was no mention of Sarah Palin there. At least not in that specific part.

[kid a]

19. they were discussing palin and he said "she"

[thewiseguy]

22. So he said Palin can be a candidate for change?

[kid a]

24. NO - He said MaCain picked Palin "to demonstrate that he COULD BE a change candidate" quote

[thewiseguy]

26. I dont think he said could. I heard him say can.

Also, he was talking about he and Americans liking something about McCain.

[kid a]

15. from replayed tivo 5 times

[thewiseguy]

20. You need to rewind back to where he is talking about what he and Americans like about McCain

1- He is an intuitive politician
2- He can be a candidate for change

I did not hear anything about Sarah Palin. At least not in that part.

[kid a]

23. He was talking about the TWO reasons why Palin was an intuitive pick

1. to rally the base
2. to try to show he isa change candidate

[thewiseguy]

25. Ummm. He was talking about he and Americans liking the pick because...

???

[GarbagemanLB]

18. If that is the quote then there is nothing wrong with what he said.

[ShortnFiery]

21. No, not if you are "triangulating" BUT if you are a part of "the democratic TEAM," it's *horrid*

and will be brightly displayed in a GOP ad to be coming to your inbox in the near future. :(
