I generally like Bill Clinton though I must admit two of my reasons aren't very good ones. One is that he's a great, charismatic speaker and we don't have a lot of those these days. The other is that I tend to side with people who are unjustly attacked and I think we had 8+ years in this country of Bill Clinton's political enemies just making up lies about him and ginning up phony scandals they could be outraged about.
That said, whatever favorable feelings I have about the man have to be weighed against certain realities. I'm not at all comfy with a lot of the deregulation he left us with or with some of the ways he's earned bucks since leaving the Oval Office. Matt Stoller runs them down for us.
