Some criticized Mr. Clinton's bare-knuckled comments to promote his wife's candidacy as "un-presidential". There was an ex-Presidents tradition of leading a muted retirement.
I'm enamored with Mr. Clinton's intelligence, his command of complex issues and I believe he cares about the average citizen. He's also a fine speaker, gifted politician and a Democrat with some fiscal moorings. After all, we haven't seen a budget surplus since Bill Clinton left the White House. His peccadilloes aside, one must give him some credit for those balanced budgets.
On the other hand, he used the Oval Office like a sex parlor, deceived the American people about it, lied under oath, rented the Lincoln bedroom, pardoned billionaire tax cheat Mark Rich and one could go on. How consistently did he behave in a "presidential" manner while in office?
