He’s Not Crazy
Just crazy about her. Bill Unhinged is all about love and commitment, says Hillary, via AFP:
MEMPHIS, Tennessee (AFP) — Hillary Clinton admitted Sunday her husband Bill’s hard-charging campaign tactics had gone overboard, but chalked the ex-president’s fiery broadsides up to love and a chronic lack of sleep.
A day after rival Barack Obama trounced her in the South Carolina primary, the former first lady also mounted a vigorous defense of the two Clinton White House terms, which Obama has said did not spark transformational change.
Clinton was asked on CBS television’s “Face the Nation” whether her husband was “out of control” after he took the Illinois senator, and the media to task, during a foul-tempered week-long campaign.
“You know, my husband has such a great commitment to me and to my campaign,” the New York senator said.
“He loves me just like, you know, husbands and wives get out there and work on each others’ behalf.”
She blamed the tensions of the tight battle for the party’s presidential nomination
“Maybe he got a little carried away. You know, that comes with a hard-fought election,” she said.
“It also comes with sleep deprivation which, you know, I think is marking all of us, our families, our supporters,” said Clinton, who herself is running low on sleep, as she jets back-and-forth across the country.

I have a hard time seeing Hillary Clinton as a pathetic example of self-delusion, much like the sad woman who insists her husband loves her despite the beatings. I believe she shares Bill’s insatiable addiction to political power, which leaves little room for the kind of love between husband and wife that most of us understand.

Oddly enough, Billy Jeff almost never had this problem while he was campaigning for himself. It’s also interesting to note that in his 8 years as President, BJ seldom got this pi$$ed in public.
Now, all of a sudden, he has a problem controlling himself? For love? Uh huh.
More likely, all those years of munching donuts and shagging interns is catching up with Billy Jeff, and he’s lost his stamina.
