DUDE. Shut UP.
It's too bad my fond memories of Bill Clinton from my youthful 1992 days has been tainted by the jackassery he keeps displaying. Oh Bill, where's an intern to keep you occupied?
Comparing the criticism of racial undertones a "mugging." Can someone explain to me how criticism can be compared to a MUGGING?
Former President Clinton on Monday called the notion that he unfairly criticized his wife's rival, Barack Obama, "a total myth and a mugging." Clinton had compared Obama's landslide victory in South Carolina's Jan. 26 primary to Jesse Jackson's wins in the state in 1984 and 1988.

Nothing like destroying your legacy after having already lost.
This is not even a Pyrric victory.
This is another reason why Obama's speech in Philadelphia was so important.
Rather than address Clinton's (and other's who have tried similar tactics) he stuck with just his pastor and then opened up the discussion to the heart of the problems associated with racism and the need for real change.
I agree with him that racism may never go away. That's why it's so important to talk about it openly and honestly.
I was pleased that he repeatedly mentioned improving our public educational system and pointing out it's failures and consequences. Especially in a growing global economy.
If you haven't heard his speech on the 18th, I hope you will now.
