I’d expect Republicans to dredge up the issues from the 90s, but what was so discouraging in this primary were supposed Democrats hurling words like “sleaze” and “scandal” and “baggage” around.
They forget that all but one “scandal” was bogus, the rest the result of a Republican witch hunt and a complicit media. And while Bill Clinton’s liasons with Monica Lewinsky were immoral and unbelievably stupid, Democrats stood behind him 100%, Joe Lieberman notwithstanding.
The good things of the Clinton years were washed away by left wing Democrats in this primary. An asset became a liability, and the pile on began in NH, when Clinton called the notion of Obama as the anti-war candidate what it is: a fairy tale.

I’ll follow Hillary’s lead and vote for the Democratic nominee in the fall. But how very unnecessary and destructive it was to have Democrats denigrate the only Democrat since FDR to win 2 terms, and to have left office with a balanced budget, American respect worldwide, and a majority of Americans approving of his presidency.

Yeah, there was baggage and we knew what it was. But since when did Democrats throw to the curb one of the most successful people in the history of the party? One term Jimmy Carter, and the man who never conceded to him in 1980, are held up higher than the successful Clinton presidency.

We’ll run, IMHO, the weaker candidate and with what I hope will be the help of us, Hillary’s supporters, the Democrats will regain the White House.
Then will come that memorable question: “Now what?”
