Geez, Bill

Looks like Bill got a little carried away:
Former President Bill Clinton was in West Virginia on his wife's behalf. In Clarksburg, he called her a scrapper and contrasted her appeal among working-class voters with the elitists he said support Obama.

"The great divide in this country is not by race or even income, it's by those who think they are better than everyone else and think they should play by a different set of rules," he said. "In West Virginia and Arkansas, we know that when we see it."

That's the "great divide" in this country? And I like how Obama supporters are the ones who are playing by "a different set of rules" when in fact it is Hillary Clinton who is trying to reverse the rules agreed upon with regards to the Michigan and Florida delegates.

Although maybe I should hold back--there doesn't seem to be much context given in the article, and so his comments could very well have been less sweeping than it appears here.
