[Captain Sensible]

Edit...... you're right, prolly better without him there mugging for the camera.....

[tekisui]

6. wtf? You would whine if he were there, saying he was trying to steal Obamas thunder.

[NightWatcher]

14. I'm tired of all things Clinton

The Clintons have equated in many peoples minds as the rulers of the Democratic Party since 1992 and I am tired of them hanging around. This is the time for Change and Hope and not a return to the 90's where his legislation (NAFTA, CAFTA, and others (privatization of government agencies...namely the investigative arm of OPM) led to many of the problems we are facing today.

[goldcanyonaz]

15. Yeah, let's keep dissing our last great president.

[Marrah_G]

9. Seek help. Seriously.

Off you go to to ignoreland where you can spout your nastiness with others just like yourself.

[greguganus]

26. Damned if he does, and damned if he don't. What do you want from Bill? n/t

[newfie11]

29. That goes for both Clintons

No matter what they do someone has to bitch about it.

[grannie4peace]

3. he's an alpha dog,

obama is above that :):):)

[blogslut]

4. So?

Haven't we all learned by now that this drama is more media invention than actual drama?

[Butch350]

23. Now your here...

So what to you!

[cali]

5. stop making a big deal out of this. it's not a big deal.

Hillary will be there. The focus will be on Obama. Here's hoping that Obama knocks it out of Invesco Field.

[no_hypocrisy]

7. If CNN reported it, that doesn't make it true.

[wyldwolf]

8. CNN said several things before last night that turned out to no be true

[vaberella]

32. Is CNN ever factual? With Carville and Sanchez and any other pundit running amok, they're a joke.

[NYC Liberal]

10. Who cares!!

Sheesh and if he was there he'd get shit for hogging the limelight when the MSM inevitably keeps one camera focused on him and then brings in "experts" to analyze his facial expressions, the way he's sitting, his eyes...everything.

[DCBob]

11. Probably better he not be there. Need to foucs on the future not the past.

The stupid MSM would probably be obsessed with Bill's every facial expression during Obama's speech.

[bunnies]

12. Good. Maybe the cameras will actually be on Obama.

Remember him? :shrug:

[LynneSin]

13. Oh lordy, here we go again. You do know this is OBAMA's convention

who gives a fuck where Bill Clinton is - it's not his. Hillary is there and that's all that counts.

Hillary did a great job united the party last night and you know that Bill will seal the deal tonight. So why the fuck are we still trying our damndest to tear the party apart AGAIN!

[nc4bo]

16. FUCK CNN, one of the Ministry of Propaganda satellites. Drama queens extraordinaire. nt

[Peacetrain]

17. Whether true or not true, makes no whit of difference

Seriously, Thursday night is Obamas night. Whether Bill Clinton is there or not, that is not the focus. Hillary will be there. That was the important Clinton who will stand with Obama to move us out of Denver one party.

[liberal N proud]

18. Keeping the rift alive

Fabricating a divide that may or may not exist but they want everyone to think it does.

[southern_belle]

19. So? It's Obama's night n/t

[still_one]

20. Since CNN is reporting it, I will wait to see if it is true

[LostinVA]

21. CNN is a Poomah -0- always has been

[Mass]

22. Why does it matter? Except for the media, who cares if Bill is there?

If he was there, he would be the center of attention for the media busy to catch every expression on his face and how he smiles or grimaces, so it does not make a difference whether he is there or not.

[rurallib]

24. 80.000 others will be there.

[lamp_shade]

25. YAWN!!!!

[kansasblue]

33. Double YAWN. He's been there all week... will give a major speech.

Thanks Bill!

[wvbygod]

27. When you have been President you get the honor to make your own schedule

Bill is no exception. ...returning bait to hook.

[shaniqua6392]

28. People would bitch about it if he did show up too.

Make up your minds. Show some respect to our two term President who did a great job for Americans. The people who are constantly criticizing Bill and Hillary Clinton are beginning to look ridiculous! They are just damned if the do and damned if they don't in your eyes. You are all doing such a good job of increasing the divide rather than uniting our party. It is making me sick. This is not just Obama's Democratic Party. It is our Democratic Party and the Clinton's should not be set aside.

[barack the house]

30. Let's not worry on that Hillary did her part that's the part that counts.

[bushisanidiot]

31. You're a troll.

period.

[BlooInBloo]

34. It ain't the Big Dawg's party no more.

[greguganus]

35. Nice hit and run post. Did you call in a pizza? n/t

[SeaLyons]

36. Trouble make much????

go away....

[onenote]

37. Question: Did Bill Clinton attend John Kerry's acceptance speech?

Bill spoke at the 2004 convention early on, but I don't recall seeing him on stage with Kerry after Kerry's acceptance speech. But my memory could be faulty.

[karynnj]

41. I'm not sure, but I do not remember it being an issue

so it is very likely he was there. I found a video, but I didn't see Clinton - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4MiBBb7DQpI but it ends before anyone other than the Kerrys and Edwards were on stage.

[thenext8seconds]

38. Why is this an issue??? Barack isn't going to be at Bill's speech tonight. nt

[Jakes Progress]

39. Whoa.

After last night's speech, you were in danger of losing your reason for living. Now CNN has given you new life.

Here's the deal. You want Obama elected? You do want that, right? Then just bottle up all the MSM created Clinton hate until after the election. Then go ahead and attack the most successful Democrats in fifty years. It will be okay then. Right now your MoDo style jealousy is just so much pathetic blather. So just hold it in for a few months, okay?

[apnu]

40. BULLSHIT! Cites an unamed source.

Therefore its a rumor or lie. Typical of CNN.
