I don't know abo...only marginally well-played, sir. I don't know about Emily Brazelton, but if Mr. Clinton was running for the nomination today, I certainly would not vote for him. And I suspect that's true of many of us who did vote for him in '92 and '6. In both years, we could at least hope that what people were saying about Clinton was not true. But we already know about Giuliani.robneyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04200448864055344321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7871003.post-67416612018786982532007-05-11T15:12:00.000-05:002007-05-11T15:12:00.000-05:00You don't understand, JVL.

I also don't know how much Barack has hurt his mother, grandparents and siblings over the years. But now I expect a series of investigative reports from Emily Bazelon about them. Because these things really do tell you about a person.<BR/><BR/>And for first commenter michael, who says that Bill is a rogue and all the women love him for it, I have two names: Paula and Juanita.

You need to compare the body of work of the two. <BR/><BR/>Clinton is a smooth talking southern boy, a charming rogue - he can't help it. Women love him and men hate him for that. Hillary catches him, gives him hell, he turns on the charm and she forgives him. And they get back on with their lives. <BR/><BR/>Doesn't Monica still like him? Think about it, he gets BJ's for free, throws her under the bus, and all the women involved still loves him. Everybody wishes they could get away with it. <BR/><BR/>Rudy is just an a$$hole when it comes to women. You have the mother's day press conference. You have the questionable jobs his "female friends" seem to get. You have his kids hating him and his new wife. And the fact he treats everybody else this way, the innocent guy who was shot by the police.Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14848352600815719457noreply@blogger.com
