Obviously, the answer to that age old question is a pretty simple one. Because, you see, apparently all it takes these days to become the most popular Democrat ex-president, is to, one, have your only competition for the title be Jimmy Carter, and, two, be the guy whose only major accomplishment as president, was to get impeached. Of course it doesn't hurt to also have an obvious lack of any morals, possess little or no character as well as any sense of decency, and to be the only guy to ever have the gonads to spill a little sperm in the Oval Office. And yet in spite of these endearing 'qualities', ex-president 'BJ' Clinton's popularity is polling at record highs. And so, it's because of this significant popularity that many hope 'BJ' may give a boost to beleaguered Barry "Almighty’s" re-election bid.
Because as unbelievable as it may sound to many, 'BJ', who is also the guy who will formally nominate Barry at the Democratic National Convention in September, is actually viewed favorably by, believe it or not, 66 percent of Americans, tying his highest rating recorded in January 1993, or so Gallup found. 'BJ' is viewed favorably by men, women, whites, and nonwhites, and across all major age groups, Gallup noted. He also has wide support among independents and, while Republicans are not fully onboard the 'Slick Willie' bandwagon, they narrowly missed it. Republicans view the former president more unfavorably than favorably by a 50 percent to 44 percent margin. Ya know, I would have expected a little more from the Republicans.
“Clinton's popularity could make him one of the more valuable speakers at the 2012 Democratic National Convention later this summer, where he will reprise his 2008 convention role as booster-in-chief for Barack Obama,” Gallup wrote in an analysis of the data. “Hillary Clinton’s favorable rating was also 66 percent in Gallup's most recent measure. Obama himself is viewed favorably by 54 percent of Americans.” So here we have two of the most prolific liars ever to enter the political arena, or to be found anywhere on the planet for that matter, and they are two of the most popular, if not the most popular, figures in this country. I'm just not sure how to explain such a thing! Are we so starved in this country for folks to admire that these two are the best we can do?
'BJ's' popularity fluctuated during his presidency and afterwards but since 2001 Americans generally have had a positive view. His favorability rating did take a bit of a dip in 2008 when he was involved in Hillary Clinton’s campaign against Barry. “In 2008, former President Bill Clinton was a crucial symbol of party unity at the Democratic National Convention as Obama sought to win over former supporters of Hillary Clinton,” Gallup wrote. “While not wildly popular with any key voting blocs at that time, he sent an important intra-party signal that it was time to come together around Obama." As usual with 'BJ', as with all slimy Democrats, politics comes above all else. Even the survival of our country is made to take a back seat to politics.
“By contrast, Clinton's solid popularity with Americans today might help attract new support to Obama from outside the party, particularly from whites, men, seniors, and political independents — all important voting groups that Obama is struggling with in trial heats against Republican Mitt Romney.” Ya know, so I guess Democrats are hoping that one pathological liar, and a pervert, will be able to attract support to another pathological liar, and a narcissist. Only in the Democrat Party would such a scenario even be possible. I just think it so bizarre how it is that anyone can look favorably upon such a sleaze as 'BJ' to the point of being persuaded on who to vote for. Of course the fact that nearly half of Republican look favorably on this guy is a little disheartening.
Sadly, I think the fact that 'BJ' continues to be held in such high regard by so many people in this country, serves as an excellent indicator of just how deeply the moral decay in this country has progressed. I mean in 'BJ' Clinton we have a guy who is willing to lie about anything and whenever it suits him, he's a guy who had absolutely no respect for the office of the president, and he's the last guy anyone would ever trust to be around your teenage daughter. He is the ultimate personification of "Chester the Molester" and the epitome of your sleazy, dishonest politician. Let's face it, 'Slick Willie's' is the only presidential library that actually comes complete with an entire wing dedicated specifically to a sex toy shop, a porno theater and a massage parlor.
