Clinton's reputation may sink his wife's presidential hopes

Scotsman.com Clinton's reputation may sink his wife's presidential hopes:
"'There's no question that it's a complicated candidacy for a lot of voters because of the history of that relationship and what they've been through,' said Leon Panetta, Mr Clinton's chief of staff from 1994 to 1997."

Mr. Clinton was a very good President. I did not want to know about his private life. That was foisted upon me. I do not want to know about anyone's whims and fancies and whatever occurred is between him and his wife and that is what a long term relationship is about. The real stuff of life and what you can or cannot take and who that person is really.Mr. Clinton is still a very popular person because he thinks and he cares. A politician cannot do anything. Everything is picked up and plastered in front of us. I hate it. It means we are losing some very good people who make great leaders because the ad hominem arguments hold weight these days. Who'd be a politician? To have assassinated a good president in public was unbelievable, to now make his wife suffer because of that public humiliation is so unjust. She was dragged through the mire at that time and yet, she had done nothing. Tells me she is one amazing lady with a lot of inner strength and courage. Nor did she run off and dump him. She doesn't look for the trite , shallow, easy answers. Hilary Clinton is a woman of substance. But where is the equity if what her husband was judged badly for is brought up yet again...and again ...and again and to the extent people cannot separate his actions from hers and they cannot see her as an individual? Who'd be a politician? Trying to destroy good people is not helping our world. It is denying us people who could be good for us. In 2006 a woman ought to be able to be judged independently of her husband...or are we still stuck in the 50s???
