Clinton tells Rolling Stone: 'I probably would have run again'

Excerpt: "Does he think he'd have been a three-time winner? "Yes. I do. But it's hard to say, because it's entirely academic," Clinton said."

He probably would've beaten Bush but would've gotten his ass kicked by McCain.

hell, they should just dump gore and bush and keep clinton in office...he definitely would have won.

would be interesting to see what response the american people would have to a suggestion of keeping clinton in office.

Gimme a break, the GOP is too reactionary to actually give McCain the nomination.

Clinton would have won in a huge landslide, no matter who ran aginst him. He's the greatest B.S. artist in my lifetime and people love him for it. That's exactly what we expect from politicians these days!

Frankly, at this point I'll take anyone with two legs. Can anyone with two legs please be our president? Oh yeah, they have to have two legs and be alive as well. Can anyone with two legs and who's alive please be our president?

There, while all of you guys were complaining, I went and got us a new president. Shows what you can do when you get off your duff and put a little effort into it.

dammit, you just ruined my plans to become president by goin out and getting us a new president.

It wasn't as hard as I thought, and look at all the advantages: we still get a president with two legs and who's still alive.

Since when did you have to have two legs in order to be President?

It's a buyers' market. I could afford to be choosey.

I would have voted for him again.

Same here. The intellegence of Gore and the charisma of Bush. Clinton is one reason we're not satisfied with either choice this time around -- both canidates pale in comparison.
