Bill Clinton is arguably the most gifted American politician of 20th century, post war period.
What is so unfortunate is that, for many within the democratic party, if polling is to be believed act as if Bill has assumed the role of the ball player that is working past his prime.
Folks see flashes of the old brilliance, but more & more they see that he strikes out more often and his batting average and slugging percentage is suffering when compared to the next phenom that is the new big draw and is bringing in the numbers while in the running for a gold glove.
Bill had to give up working short stop for a move to first base and a seven spot in the order and still cannot grasp why some kid is getting all the press just because he is lucky while the old pro is just suffering through his first slump in years.
The fact is the baseball, like politics is an unfair sport. Just like baseball, folks count EVERYTHING in politics. Especially during the 24 hour news cycle.
An era appears to be passing.
