Pay no attention to anything you hear when my lips are moving:
Bill Clinton appeared to undermine Sen. Barack Obama again Tuesday.
The former president, speaking in Denver, posed a hypothetical question in which he seemed to suggest that that the Democratic Party was making a mistake in choosing Obama as its presidential nominee.
He said: "Suppose you're a voter, and you've got candidate X and candidate Y. Candidate X agrees with you on everything, but you don't think that candidate can deliver on anything at all. Candidate Y you agree with on about half the issues, but he can deliver. Which candidate are you going to vote for?"
Then, perhaps mindful of how his off-the-cuff remarks might be taken, Clinton added after a pause: "This has nothing to do with what's going on now."
I have to say that watching the Democrats try to de-Clintonize the party is about the closest thing there is to actual fun in the political swamp these days. A former Clinton aide is quoted as saying that the former president is "solidly" behind Obama. Totally. Really. No, honest, no kidding.

Something to think about there.

Dr. McDougall says we should understand, and show some compassion.
