Reply #17: The Clintons are behaving like gracious people who expect the best in others, [View All]

not like the nasty Newt Gingritches or Tom Delays, who want to demonize their political enemies. This doesn't mean that they had blinders on, or let themselves be taken advantage of. But, with regard to their common aim for the good, they give their political opponents the benefit of the doubt. Until the onset of Gingritch, this is how the majority of Senators behaved. This is why Senators have always had friends "across the aisle" and why Presidents and ex-Presidents refrained from criticizing former or current Presidents.
