Nice.

Bill had no qualms calling McCain great last week. And his reason for doing so?

"I think his greatness is that he keeps trying to come back to service without ever asking people to cut him any slack or feel sorry for him or any of that stuff because he was a POW," Clinton said of the Republican presidential nominee.

So...umm...Bill? We're a few weeks away from an election.

Try to show some enthusiasm for our team.

I thought we were on the same side.

1. I wish I had $100 for every reference McSame made to his POW status...
I would not have to worry about where the economy was going.

4. I wish I had some greenbacks for every time Clinton grants McCain a compliment.
Then I could donate more to Obama's campaign.

2. Clinton gets fees for speaking. Could we just pay him NOT to speak?
...just for the next 4-5 weeks...

5. He's got legal bills to pay. And also Mark Penn.

3. Why is this unfair?
I think its reasonable to say we are seeing Obama prove his potential as we speak, rather than saying he has already achieved it.
