Time for the Dems to seethe like a Palestinian...
FORMER US president Bill Clinton has cast an approving eye at Sarah Palin's political skills, but would not be drawn on whether his wife Hillary could run for the White House in 2012.
But ah'll do all ah can to make it possible...
Mr Clinton, acclaimed even by his enemies as one of the most consummate American politicians in recent history, said he did not agree with Republican vice presidential pick Mrs Palin on politics, but warned fellow Democrats not to underestimate her. "She's an instinctively effective candidate and with a compelling story," Mr Clinton said in an interview with CNBC."I think it was exciting to some that she was a woman," said Mr Clinton."I think she, I get why she's done so well. It's a mistake to underestimate her. She's got good intuitive skills. They're significant."
Mr Clinton said he thought Republican presidential candidate John McCain, a Vietnam war hero and veteran lawmaker, was a "great man" and that the election on November 4 would be close, but he predicted Democrat Barack Obama would emerge triumphant.
wink...wink
But if Senator McCain should win, would Hillary Clinton, who narrowly failed to capture the Democratic presidential nomination this time around, challenge the Arizona senator in 2012? "I don't know," Mr Clinton said.
