Bill Clinton has long been known for his indisputable consistency. From navigating scandal damage control to restating policy positions, he stays the course. To this day, he continues to parse the definition of the “is.” On Saturday, the Democrats ventured into the Wild West to caucus in Nevada. Largely regarded as an unimportant caucus, (even to Nevadans themselves), the press predictably has turned this into a steel cage match. An epic, three-way showdown between the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly (decide for yourself who is who).
Recently, Bill Clinton was publicly reprimanding reporters and supporting a lawsuit against the Nevada Democratic Party for holding caucuses in casinos, which benefits the Culinary Workers Union. The union endorsed Obama, and the cooks work mostly in the casinos. In contrast, Nevada teachers tend to support Hillary and live further away, so this is not good for Hillary. Shockingly, the Clintons had no problem with this situation before the cooks unexpectedly backed Obama.
Bill further argued that voter suppression was taking place in Nevada, an egregious injustice that disrupted the democratic process here and made the results unfair and invalid. Oh wait! Hillary just defeated Obama in the Happy Ending State. This begs the question: were Obama voters suppressed? Is Hillary’s victory tainted and illegitimate? Is Bill just totally full of shit?
Political Mouthwash can’t say for sure that Obama wouldn’t have pulled the same shenanigans in Bill’s place, but we are definitely tired of watching Bill spoon-feed the nation this bullshit and we strongly would like, at the very least, to see the bullshit come from a new face. We feel that Barack Obama may be the best person to stand before the country and bullshit us. He at least can do it calmly and pleasantly, unlike the cranky Bill Clinton, who is clearly frustrated from going hours without sex. If Hillary is too busy, she needs to send Huma in.
