The New York Times this morning reports that the Clinton campaign -- after a week in which Bill Clinton made lots of headlines on the campaign trail in SC, not all of them positive -- is going to try to change the ex-president's role:
"Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton’s campaign team, seeking to readjust after her lopsided defeat in South Carolina... will try to shift the former president back into the sunnier, supportive-spouse role that he played before Mrs. Clinton’s loss in the Iowa caucuses, Clinton advisers said."
Also: "Democrats" said "Mr. Clinton had upset some of the central themes of Mrs. Clinton’s campaign, including her appeal to women and her assertions that her time in the White House during the 1990s amounted to vital experience rather than a link to a presidency defined as much by scandal and partisan divisions as by its successes on fronts like the economy."
And: "Despite Mrs. Clinton’s months-long efforts to build a base of support among women, Clinton advisers said they were concerned that her husband’s recent prominence may have dampened her appeal as a strong female leader."
At the Huffington Post, under the headline "Hillary sends Bill on Campaign Trip to Antarctica," humor columnist Andy Borowitz reportedon the campaign's efforts to sell Bill on a new posting:
"From here on in, Bill is going to be our man in Antarctica," said top Clinton strategist Mark Penn. "...This race isn't about votes or delegates, it's about land mass, frozen tundra and penguins."

I am so sick of watching CNN FOX and MSNBC and some News Papers and their obsession with Barack Hussein Obama for the purpose of derailing the only woman candidate.
They may use Hillary as the culprit but this is deeper then their hatred for her
She is A WOMAN and deserves the same historical coverage as a Black man running for office.
I have lost all respect for members of the media i ordinarily tune it to.
Rezko is Obama's problem, stop spinning it to Clinton.
If the media wants to bring the dirt out on her bring it but GIVE REZKO TO OBAMA and stop trying to blame Clinton because Obama screwed up with him.
EXAMPLE this comment by a black MAN never made the media.

Former S.C. Democratic Party chairman Joe Erwin of Greenville, also an Obama supporter, said, “Blacks are not going to sit back and let some white person kill the chances of one of their own to be elected president.”
Go attack Hillary for that too, after all she is a woman so let the media Blame her.
Sick to death of the media giving a free pass to Obama.
Different kind of politician?
Says he's not for single pay in a debate then we see video that confirms it. LIAR
Says he's not race baiting. Then a campaign memo stirring race surfaces. LIAR
Says he only did 5 hours work for Rezko, as if he was just another client. Then we find it Rezco the slum lord helped him by a two million dollar home with an advance from a book (audacity of audacity) in which he exploits his own cocaine habit for money. LIAR
