Campaigning for President Barack Obama in Philadelphia on Monday afternoon, former President Bill Clinton inadvertently struck a note of irony while attempting to criticize Mitt Romney’s campaign. “You’re laughing, but who wants a president who will knowingly, repeatedly tell you something he knows is not true?” Clinton asked, after discounting a claim in a recent Romney ad that the Obama administration’s auto bailout hurt American workers.
Clinton was impeached in 1998 on one count of perjury and one count of obstruction of justice, after repeatedly telling Americans and a grand jury that he did not have sexual relations with a White House intern.

I don't think anyone wants that - isn't that why he was impeached? Clinton made his mistakes and although his statements appear a little hypocritical - that doesn't make his statements untrue. I hope nobody basis their vote today based on mistakes a democratic party member made a decade ago.

Touché! I know Obama hasn't been perfect but I can't name any leader who has. Anyone want to speculate what the state of the US would be in if McCain won the last election - I get shivers down my spine when I think of it.
If people are voting for Romney because they didn't like how Obama handled the last few years doesn't in any way mean Romney will do better. The grass isn't always greener on the other side. If Romney wins, I see a continuation of the corporate grab of the middle class and an acceleration of the military industrial complex... but that's just my opinion.
Oooooooo yeah I didn't inhale...but I did breathe IMO, he is protecting and securing Hilary for possible future elections by shifting the focus on the POTUS and his record indirectly.
