Yes, because unlike Hillary, Bill has charisma.
However, it won't be enough of an impact, people are tired of the Clintons just as much as they are tired of the Bushs, and want someone new in 2008.

He always makes a positive impact for Sen. Clinton. He is more well liked now than when he was in office. It's funny, all the other candidates travel with their spouses without commentary about it, because that's what the people expect. But Sen. Clinton has to parcel those appearances out with her husband so she can better stand on her two feet without ijits claiming she's only there because of him. So every time he makes a special trip with her it's front page news.
Of course it's positive, there's a lot of people who love this two for one deal. They acknowledge that Sen. Clinton is qualified in her own right but they can't help salivating at the thought of President Clinton being back in the White House. It's really a win-win for the Democrats, no matter how those who hate them wish to look at it.

I think the Hillary campaign knows they need one of the Democrat's most effective campaigners in the last 30 years or Hillary is doomed so they need Bill out there. The problem is does his charisma and sheer knowledge of politics overshadow his wife and show us she is lacking in so many ways and really brings up all the negatives there were in the Clinton administration.

Well, since the majority of people favored Bill while he was in office, I think him being involved could make a positive impact on Hilary's campaign.

Depends...Bill Clinton never won a majority to be elected president. And it stills seems that Rudy has the most votes when going against Hillary.

yes. the Democratic base loves the Clintons, and after 8 years of Bush mainstream America misses the Clintons. Bill is a great public speaker and great fundraiser.

Hillary can't win without him.
In fact, no one would know Hillary Clinton if it wasn't for Bill. The smartest woman in America wouldn't be known by anyone. What a shame.

Yeah, Democrats like Bill and Republicans wouldn't be voting for Hillary anyways. Not to mention, when people see Bill they remember how much better shape our country was in when he was president.

Depends on the group you're looking at. A lot of women I know who have talked about supporting Hillary are loathe to talk about her connection to Bill. I think she lost the support of a lot of strong women for staying married to a guy who runs around on her simply for political convenience. At least Bill is always a lot of fun to watch.

Hmmm.....I don't think he can hurt her. Moral corruption really doesn't have any bearing if you're a democrat. Besides that, if another bimbo erruption is exposed, she'll just get the sympathy vote.
