OK -- like big -- I think my husband the trouble we're gonna do it now and again zawahiri -- So last night at an Obama fund raiser President Clinton took a swipe at governor Romney saying the alternative -- the second Obama term would be in my opinion.
Calamitous for our country.
And the world's.
-- right.
So -- from the other night when he said Mitt Romney had quote sterling business credentials so let's bring in democratic -- This Harry and marsh -- Has no credibility after the first met so disagree me.
Earth congratulations on the Obama and I think adhere to disagree with the -- I think it's perfect added it does agree here.
What it would be calamitous the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result.
That's what would happen in -- Romney presidency he would have the same policies that got us into this -- tax cuts we can't afford for people who don't need them.
It would create more debt spending -- spending like a drunken sailor and by the way cuts and the very things that would help us.
Like education.
-- -- -- And I know those of the democratic talking points that we're we're talking about I don't isn't allegedly talking -- -- okay we'll know bill comes out at first he says you know he was governor yet sterling business credentials.
Everybody replay this hour ride again and again because it was very positive.
For Mitt Romney comes out -- they take into the woodshed for -- good beating.
He comes back out need to takes -- back and he says the most opposite thing to possibly come up with this is disaster the entire planet will blow up.
If Mitt Romney is present how do you have any credibility if you flip flop like that.
Well two things anyone knows Bill Clinton knows that when he plays golf he takes Mulligan this was -- Mulligan number one.
-- number until he actually has the record I -- Bill Clinton cleaned up after bush 41.
Created more jobs created a huge surplus wiped -- the deficit bush 41 left he knew how to do it and the formula to do it is investing.
You certainly have to do some -- any generate some taxes you have to do all three and that's what we had such a great economy under Clinton.
And Obama is taking some of those pages he needs a second term to finish it Romney would do the opposite very ago do you think when -- -- look at this they say you know what the clintons -- the Obama's they'd never got along anyway.
You know this is just more back and four.
He's getting back at the Obama as -- you know says something about president oops I didn't really mean that and really he's chuckling in the background what effect.
Well he's that it it as former president you get to say whatever you want but if you really -- my politics here.
If Bill Clinton is trying to hurt Barack Obama is not gonna help Hillary Clinton if she runs in 2060 yeah that you gotta keep that in mind.
So yes they have their fights in 2008 just like McCain and Romney did McCain campaign's now -- -- nobody hit gain Romney tougher in these primaries and Gingrich Gingrich is out -- supporting him.
That's politics but I do think.
Clinton is pointed to his own record as a way to get the the finish -- the country back on track and pushing the Obama administration this campaign to look more towards the future and I think you heard that last night.
Yeah now we are having a great time -- that's because we have to put on TV shows every day but do you think the average public really cares.
What Bill Clinton has just air cares about this back and forth it is anyone but -- paying attention.
Well I do think Democrats care and Democrats love Bill Clinton you can't you can't underestimate the depth of that love there and that's why he went -- to Wisconsin yesterday.
Independent voters like him a lot too and so you're looking for the last president that got this country out of an economic -- and put it into a -- go go economy.
-- we got rid of the deficit had a surplus and everybody was working full employment almost.
Then you gotta look at Bill Clinton and give them all the applause so he had does have a lot of credibility there and I think people do looked at him for that -- three curveball here -- -- think the president didn't get more involved in what's going on Wisconsin tonight I mean that's been a big question in -- circles all throughout the date today is -- he tweeted his support.
For the mayor but he hasn't gotten any closer and that what did you think that experts think was a mistake.
-- why do you think yes that more.
You know at Wisconsin and a presidential -- is one of the toughest states to work in every single time anyone who has worked there will tell you that anyone who's there will tell you that now.
So you have to play it careful and I think if this is close as the recent polls have shown and I -- -- -- predictions now this is the ground game a great ground game in a close races -- three to five point that could be the race today and my money's on the Democrats if it comes down to the ground game.
But Obama has -- run and play again in November the you have to be very Smart here and I think they waited to not invite any more opposition to come in and tried to help just under the radar screen on the ground game we'll see if that -- How big of a deal do you think it is -- the recall doesn't succeed how big of a blow is it to Democrats and how big of a blow is -- -- unions.
Well I think here's here would be my analysis.
No matter what if the Democrats win.
Then it's a signal across the country that you can get -- spent seven to one.
I don't expect President Obama to get out spent 701 but we'll get outspent by the super pacs but if you have a great grassroots organization in your competitive you can win.
If Democrats just come up short -- they'll be some hand -- in wishing that there might have been some more investments at the end of this race so I.
As a Democrat I would love to see the Democrats -- after getting -- spent seven to one and when it with a grassroots organization ground game.
And that would be ideal so is that the preview if the Democrats -- gonna say it was all about the money we just didn't spend enough money and they spent much money and that's -- they want.
You can't get out spent 71 usually and win so if you can win -- -- in under those circumstances that's really impressive no matter what party for a Mary -- you are fantastic sport I hope you'll come back and disagree with me again since it's my kids of the -- to yeah.
Any -- -- -- -- -- for your husband I have to thank you so much ran.
