Bill's Big Blunder

Bill Clinton, not known for gaffes, made a statement today that will have repercussions perhaps causing the ultimate destruction of his wife's campaign for the White House. In a speech in Denver while campaigning for Hillary, he said:

"We just have to slow down our economy and cut back our greenhouse gas emissions 'cause we have to save the planet for our grandchildren."

There will be a particular contingent on the Left that will laud the former President's bold statement. The people who have become followers of the Green Faith, whose leader is Pope Al Gore will no doubt be lured more towards the Clintons. Unfortunately for Billary, most Americans do not fit into this category, and are more concerned about how they are going to pay their bills and save for retirement than whether or not the dubious claims about Climate Change are followed by stout action to stave off some supposed global catastrophe.

It will be interesting to see how Hillary responds to questions about Bill's comments. It may decide her fate--at least in the general election.
