It isn't an entirely fair or accurate argument -- Bill Clinton
was a six-term governor of Arkansas in 1992, only inexperienced
compared to George Bush and Bob Dole -- but it is the best argument
to be made. Clinton beat two American patriots who were older than
him, trumping them on bread-and-butter issues, and proved
experienced enough to be considered a successful president by
millions (though I disagree with that judgment too). But the best
thing Obama can do is turn himself into Clinton and McCain into
Bush/Dole. Bill proved tonight that he is still the real political
talent in the Clinton family.
