Wow. Just watched the E! True Hollywood Story about Bill Clinton. Damn the guy went through some crap. Regardless of his 'discretions' that he definitely committed, here's what I feel:
1) He balanced the budget after three Presidencies of deficit. Seems like Republicans seem to have this as a habitual problem.. hmm..
1a) The country went through the most prosperous economic period in US history when he was in office.
2) Brought a sweeping gun bill (Brady Bill) to fruition.
3) Is the only white guy that can have an office in Harlem and completely fit in as a member of the community.
Of course, there're probably a million other reasons- these are just the few I can think of off-hand.
Plus, here's my ultimate reason for liking him: he was named the Number 1 Schmoozer by The Official Guide to Schmoozing. (John F Kennedy was #5 and Franklin D Roosevelt was number 2. Not a bad list considering the first one is still considered royalty in the US and the second brought the US out of The Depression.) Yep, other than the harassment issues, I'd love to have the charisma he has. Wow.
