BORN AGAIN BILL OUR FUTURE FIRST HUSBAND IS ON A MISSION.
Future Madame President is a money machine that is unstoppable when it comes to raising campaign funds. I heard Bill Clinton jokingly refer to himself as "the worlds best-known sinner" yesterday as he let voters sneak a peek at Hillary's first ace in the hole.

Putting God into politics is fine for a future First Hubby as long as Ms. President acts egalitarian and Democratic. Lots of First Ladies have been highly visible Christians. For all of those who will argue it's not quite Kosher, I only have one question: We Democrats don't have double standards about sex, RIGHT? According to a self-confessed, fast-forgiven "sinner" Republicans don't own God and Democrats have traditionally "made a mistake" in letting them claim they did.

If DeLay can pray and make issues go away, then so can Bill. The main difference is brother Bill presents much more charisma as he throws down a religious gauntlet. Before you start screaming hypocrite, in Judgmental tones, keep in mind Born-again Bill can still deliver a speech that will woo and wow voters. This nation of conservative Christians is sick of a war Jesus hates. Christ speaks to our hearts constantly, while teaching us it is morally wrong with His every written Word.

Speaking of morals the Republicans have shown so few scruples that I suspect all those devoutly Catholic Hispanics will file for a divorce in November. Many of them realize that corruption is exactly what destroys most governments south of the border. They came here to escape it, not sponsor corruption with their votes.

This Clinton approach is Fundamentally sound and offers Salvation from the Republican Culture of Corruption but I doubt it will fly high on the far left. Most American voters, however, are no where near this distant ultra-liberal pole. Christians love nothing more than "sinners" who seek forgiveness before flying to the pulpit and preaching with Evangelical Glory and a sense of humor to boot.

Did you people think I was simply kidding around last month, when I created all that art demonizing Republicans as it raises Democrats to lofty heights? Well, think again.

1. "Our future first husband???"
You can't be talking about Hilary's husband. Because Hilary will never see the inside of the White House again as a resident, unless Chelsea wins someday.

7. What coffee are you drinking?
Cheer for your favorite all you want, but Hillary Clinton has too many people hating her in both major parties to win the Presidency any time soon. It may be irrational, but it's true none the less.

9. btw, hillary is my least favorite contender thus far....

12. I get the Christian forgiveness, just not the Hillary Clinton pimping.
Especially if she's your least favorite contender. I would love to see a woman President and a minority President in my lifetime (maybe a minority woman, even), but I don't think Hillary Clinton is the one. She's just too hated, and that only works in wrestling.

14. Bill is a winner, but she hasn't really won squat.
She ran as a Democrat in a Democratic state. Whoop-dee-damn-doo.

She won't flip any red or purple states, nationwide - and, in fact, may lose us a couple of blue states, such as Pennsylvania and Michigan, so I'm not betting on her "winning" attributes, myself.

8. helderheid, it seems our little Republican pal has lost their voice....
would you care to explain why you gave a big "AMEN" to such an off-the-wall comment? Maybe he lost his signal out there in space...

11. I'll help you out
"According to a self-confessed, fast-forgiven "sinner" Republicans don't own God and Democrats have traditionally "made a mistake" in letting them claim they did."

Read your own post.

17. and what has brother Bill's comments got to do with...
"Christians not owning God?" While I'm sure NONE feel that they "own God," they do make payments every week.

10. I'll tellya
Your description of Bill as "ace in the hole" is apt.

The single most common thing I hear from people who are not on the far left is "God, I will Bill Clinton was still president."

I hear this all over the country, red states and blue states both.

I don't support a Hillary run for half a dozen reasons, but I think you're right: anything that puts Bill back into that House, in any capacity, will be highly palatable to a lot of people.

13. thanks william.... that's basically what I was theorizing
'to err is human but forgivness is Divine," will also figure into this equation... If she can forgive Bill then so must other Christians now that he's just one of the guys again... I do miss having a guy with a real sense of humor in the White House, instead of these cardboard-cut-out characters from a horror comic book.

15. Not around here.
Heck - my state voted for Bill both times, but wouldn't vote for Hillary if it was on fire and she had a hose.

19. I'm in Tennessee.
The thing is - that NO purple or red states will flip for Hillary. None. I can't think of a one, and she'd need that to win. That was my point.

20. so they'll all just vote Republican again after Hillary wins the primary?
Hmmm, that just doesn't jive with current events... I can't speak for women but there must be a few still living in those states who have repeatedly said the "White House needs a woman's touch."
