Is Bill Clinton campaigning for anyone? I was thinking when the news showed Whiny Donny, Obama

and Biden all in PA.

Can he even help? Remember, the economy grew in the 90s and he ended with a balanced budget. Or is this too... previous century?

Not so much 50 and below.

His history with women has been . . . recontextualized for modern audiences. Behavior people excused and overlooked in the 80s and 90s isn't as easily overlooked today. So there isn't a lot of benefit unless targeting older Democratic audiences.

Contrast with President Obama who has much, much wider appeal.

(No one @ me over this. I don't care. Just passing along my perception. I was a kid when he was in office and am not invested in the man).
