Michael Crowley over at TNR’s “The Stump” observers the following:
Watching MSNBC coverage of Obama’s rally in Raleigh, NC, I’m struck by this line from his stump speech:
When Bill Clinton was president your average wages and incomes went up $7,500. Under George Bush it went dow $2,000. So if I’ve get economic theories that are similar to Bill Clinton’s, and [McCain’s] got economic theories that are similar to George Bush’s–you can look and see which one worked and which didn’t.
Remember when he was running against the Clinton years?
It’s called wanting to get elected. Barry knew that if he didn’t suck up to Hillary and Bill who represent the “old 1990’s guard” of the Democratic Party, he’d never get elected. Plus, maybe Bubba wants to reign in on the Puma’s.
Although, it is a humorous thing to watch two people sucking up to one other, after ripping on one another weeks before. 😀
