Here comes Obama. Powerful intellect and way with words. Serious and reform minded. Rejecting the very kind of politics both Clintons revel in and love as out of date.
Obama also is a disciplined and decent man who is not held down by fatal personal weaknesses and is, in essence more savvy.
He has the youth and excitement Bill lost and has bested the machine and all their lackeys consistently and basically did what even the republicans could not do: Beat the Clintons.
It also grates on Bill that Obama thumbs his nose at the Clintons rather then do like the other democrats and bow and pay homage to them.
