This is so breathtakingly ridiculous that I must quote the majority of the article for those who may not link over to read the whole thing otherwise:

Bill Clinton voiced his abiding anger at the media’s coverage of him and his wife in Durham, N.H., today, and suggested that media bias will force Clinton to go negative on Barack Obama.

He also expressed his frustration that his wife is perceived by voters as divisive through, he said, no fault of her own.

Clinton, like his wife, is traveling New Hampshire taking questions from voters, and he spoke at the University of New Hampshire in Durham in response to a plea from a woman who said she’d like it “if you and Clinton joined Barack Obama in putting the Republicans on notice” that it was time to “change the game” and end the “meanness” and “manipulation” in politics.

Clinton replied that he liked the idea — in theory.

“I think we can change it as long as you have access to information by people who are committed to judging everybody by the same set of rules and following the same set of rules,” he said. “According to the most recent media analysis, that’s not what’s happened so far, but yeah, I think it should be done.”

Clinton also let his audience glimpse the scars of his White House years.

Nobody would like it better than us if you could get that personal vilification out of there, because nobody’s been vilified more than we have,“[Emphasis, mine] he said, after noting that he thought Hillary and McCain could run a respectful campaign. “One of the problems with laying down and turning the other cheek is McCain had one dose of it. They gave it to us for eight years.

Gag, choke, cough. For a former President of the United States whose administration was involved in more self inflicted scandals than any in recent memory and who had the press working on his side for almost 8 years to play victim now, is a disgrace. Could this be an indication that the Clinton campaign’s internal numbers are tanking? Are we hearing a bit of desperation here?

I don’t know if Hillary will secure the Dem’s nomination but the baggage she carries now is what was created by the co-presidency the Clinton’s imposed on us while in Washington.

Besides, no one but Mrs. Clinton answered the questions posed to her in debates and on the Sunday talk shows.

We all know she would never go negative on anyone (ahem)…the press is going to make her do it. I’ve heard some real whoppers throughout this campaign but that statement by the former President takes the cake.

Maybe it’s time one of these two began owning up to the mistakes they have made rather than blaming them on the press who glorified them and the voters who gave them eight years in the White House.

The final few paragraphs are worth the read.

Update:

I am not one to follow polls closely but I know the Clinton’s always welcomed those which furthered their cause of the moment.

That being said, check out the latest numbers from Rasumssen for the state of New Hampshire. If this hold true in the primary and Obama wins by a large margin, what then. Will those Superdelegates begin to show signs of jumping ship? Time will tell.

    The Clintons have been masters at never taking responsibility for their own actions or what happens to them. This is no exception. Now it’s the press that isn’t being nice, but she enjoyed such good press before they loved them. Now that it comes down to the actual thought of electing her president the press is taking a harder look and Bill isn’t helping her any with his in your face style of politics.

    He’s the one who talked of the “politics of personal destruction” when he practically invented it.

    Obama is an empty suit. A very likeable fellow, but what does he offer if elected president?

    Edwards is so busy fighting his class war he’s made himself a nobody in the field.

    On the right it looks right now to be McCain, Romney probably Huckabee and maybe Fred Thompson if he can hold on until some other states start primaries.

    Romney is too slick by half and Huckabee is riding his religion to get votes. That makes me mad. He’s a high tax man and has no knowledge of what’s going on outside the United States and that’s giving him credit. Rudy won’t play with the terrorists but what social programs will he push?

    So we have McCain, with a hot temper but seems to know how to compromise, Rudy with credentials against terrorists but very liberal socially and Thompson, who is probably the best candidate but doesn’t want to get out in public enough for us to hear his good-sense arguments.

    What a year and what a ride we are on!
