He hurt Hillary by cheating on her with Monica Lewinsky. You would have thought that women would have protested and all that. One person said that because Bill Clinton supported all the women’s rights groups and their agenda. that is why nobody seemed to care much.

I think a lot of women, and men for that matter, thought the whole thing should have been a private matter between husband and wife from the beginning. I also think a lot of women have had experience with cheating husbands and doing whatever they can to save their marriages in spite of it. If they haven't experienced it they know someone close to them that has. They don't throw the baby out with the bath water. Once he lied under oath, it became everybody's business and that is the only problem I have with Bill Clinton. I think he was an excellent President and I am content to let Bill and Hillary's marriage/infidelity problems remain a private matter between them. I have a lot more to say on the subject, and in fact have put a blog entry on my 360 page explaining my thoughts on this subject, but it's all much to long to post here. Bill Clinton was very supportive of women's rights and that is a plus for a lot of people, true.

It boils down to the fact that a person's personal life is just that, their personal life. It is not the American people's business to have an opinion on these things. Bill and Hillary Clinton are both progressive politicians that offer hope to every American. They speak a language that most people can understand and appreciate.

you're nuts, Clinton pushed NAFTA down our throats and signed it into regulation. Bush replaced into no longer my well-liked variety of guy the two. Clinton replaced right into a lame duck President. Republicans held the Senate and residing house for the time of his tenure and made the regulations that created the jobs and balanced the funds. Clinton weakened the rustic's protection with the duty of unqualified goofballs in key cabinet positions. Oh, and he set the degree to coach us right into a debtor united states of america to China and destroyed the effectiveness of our defense force. you will be watching your calculator via beer goggles. Oh, and that i'm no longer professional-Republican the two , the two events those gents belonged to have been screwing each and every physique for some years and taking turns at bat. hey, "do no longer call Me Dude" You nailed it. i could desire to bypass on approximately that little scumbag Les Aspin he appointed Sec. of protection, Somalia , base closures, and so on. i'm happy there are human beings such as you obtainable which could see throughout the time of the bullshit.

Issues trump personal lives in politics. I have wondered why black or jewish or irish or whatever voters would support a candidate just because he is the same ethnicity. The thing should be, does this person think like I do or the major issues in the country?

When it comes to politics, I think who's having sex with who isn't really the biggest issue. Yeah, it's lame that he cheated on his wife. But George W was a known coke fiend in his earlier years, and that didn't seem to bother the people who voted for him. Nobody's perfect. Any politician has done something wrong in the past. A sexual infidelity is a pretty low concern. I'm more interested in what they're doing in the political realm.

I think it is because Hillary is someone who will not let anyone get in her way. For a President, that is a good thing.

Hillary didn't give one iota that bill was doing another woman. Anyone that believes different is naive. She is mad that he was so indiscreet and kept getting caught. I have not liked either of the Clinton's since I laid eyes on them, and they have proven my gut reaction correct every day since.

It's because it makes more sense to support someone that lied about oral sex versus a political party that lies to an entire nation about non-existant weapons of mass destruction for a war in a country that had NOTHING to do with 9/11
