3. Forgive them. They've been beat down so much they don't know how to act after winning.

7. they are quite similar, though
Both enormously gifted politicians. Obama is more disciplined, Bill has the edge on charisma. I believe Bill edges him on intelligence - just my opinion. Obama might edge Bill as a strategist. They're remarkable close philosophically.

The Democratic party most certainly has the most gifted and popular public servants between the two major parties.

14. Yeah, Clinton actually ran as a liberal, only later to turn into a centrist consensus builder.
Obama was three years ahead of him two years ago by that standard.
