Where should they send courageous and selfless Clinton?
I know he is in Philadelphia today, and obviously he's got to be very careful. He is a resource that could, after all, croak (what a HELL of a guy!)if he is doing too much too soon.

It seems to me they should stick him in predominantly African American areas in swing states: Ohio, Florida, maybe Arkansas (but just especially in heavily black areas). I know polling shows that he is truly beloved by African Americans, vs. Kerry who is "liked" by African Americans.

I feel Clinton must be used carefully, because while he is loved by Dems, and has a hardcore group of supporters, he DOES (and we must admit this) turn off a number of independents.

2. Ehhh....
No one who is so committed to Clinton-hatred that they'd refuse to vote for Kerry if Clinton endorsed him, is planning to vote for Kerry in the first place. We are in deep trouble indeed if we need the votes of Clinton-haters to win this.

People like Clinton. Even people who had mixed feelings about him during his term in office now admit that he looks pretty darn good next to the Shrub.

I say, turn Clinton loose in AR. Recent polls indicate that state's a tie right now. Clinton's enthusiastic and visible support can push us over the top there, in a state that Shrubco thought was a sure thing.

perhaps sub line 20, tho we could get that forgiven with a new law, IMHO, since congress controls banks.

7. They should send him to bed.
In his home in Arkansas.

He can do interviews with every Arkansas media organization from his home. They would be happy to have the ratings this close to the election.

8. Florida, Arkansas
I have heard that Doctors advise against flying. However, send him by train, get him his own private car, with Kerry banners on the sides, all decked out. Could call it something to do with hope. Remember when Clinton campaigned as someone from Hope, Arkansas? Well, Hope is on the Way, no? The train could be the Hope Express?
