My brother Rick wrote an interesting piece on his blog called “Why I Don’t Want Hillary as President.” I gotta agree with him.

But there’s more: the Bill Factor. The guy just can’t help himself. He loves the spotlight, and can’t discipline himself to stay on-message with his wife, who happens to be The Candidate, in case he’s not aware of that. Bill’s gonna sink her chances, whether it’s in capturing the nomination or winning in November.

I just read an article in the current Newsweek about some of Bill’s business dealings with shady people since leaving office. We had eight years of Whitewater, a minor scandal that Republicans drew out insufferably. I’m afraid there are a bunch more Whitewaters just beneath the surface. And they would be inflicted on us throughout a Hillary presidency.

While I think she’s qualified and capable, a real sharp lady who knows policy and could make a decent president (despite whether or not you agree with some of her views), I think her husband is just an enormous turn-off for too many people. A big liability. Kudos for hanging on to a marriage when lots of people thought she should divorce the guy. But Bill, who would most definitely be co-president, is the main reason I can’t imagine voting for her.
