   what’s going on Bill?

   Bill Clinton’s tirade stunned some delegates
   – San Francisco Chronicle

   The Bill Clinton who met privately with California’s superdelegates at last weekend’s state convention was a far cry from the congenial former president who afterward publicly urged fellow Democrats to “chill out” over the race between his wife, Hillary Rodham Clinton, and Barack Obama.

   In fact, before his speech Clinton had one of his famous meltdowns Sunday, blasting away at former presidential contender Bill Richardson for having endorsed Obama, the media and the entire nomination process.

   “It was one of the worst political meetings I have ever attended,” one superdelegate said.

   According to those at the meeting, Clinton – who flew in from Chicago with bags under his eyes – was classic old Bill at first, charming and making small talk with the 15 or so delegates who gathered in a room behind the convention stage.

   [.] Rachel Binah, a former Richardson delegate who now supports Hillary Clinton, told Bill how “sorry” she was to have heard former Clinton campaign manager James Carville call Richardson a “Judas” for backing Obama.

   It was as if someone pulled the pin from a grenade.

   “Five times to my face (Richardson) said that he would never do that,” a red-faced, finger-pointing Clinton erupted.

   The former president then went on a tirade that ran from the media’s unfair treatment…

   not helpful to the courting of super-delegates who speak with each other across states. These people are  a closed club. That Bill has come undone is now public, – a snippet of them pondering what’s ahead. Wow!

       Gaawd awful, so sad to think this is a former president.

       Win or loose, Bill’s demeanor in this campaign has diminished his standing among heads of Fortune 500 companies…and respect in the public places.

       pure sleaze.

   Thanks for signal-boosting!  As a designer, I’m so inspired by Coudal – one of the top design firms in the country, but one that doesn’t pander and BS.  Their political stuff has been “controversial” but… they probably wouldn’t want to take any clients who had a problem with it anyway.
