 Bill Hurts, Not Helps, Hillary's Campaign
By: Dick Morris & Eileen McGann Bill Clinton's poll ratings are very high so Hillary figures he can be of great help to her on the campaign trail. So far, so good -- but then they extrapolate that view and conclude that he would be a good person to make her negative attacks on opponents, to answer charges against her and to take the media to task for their coverage. And that's where they are wrong.
