I think Clinton's appeal these days is attributable to three things:
1. Kenneth Starr's witch hunt. Left, right, or center, even if people think
Clinton is a moral and ethical beast -- no one likes a witch hunt.
2. As a society -- people in the USA are anti police. Oh yeah, this is a
contradiction with putting more cops on the street and building jails, but
people see Starr as a cop with a hard on for Clinton and they don't like it.
3. The economy. For many people -- especially those outside urban areas with
large minority populations, the recent boom has spurred on visions of the
American Dream. Clinton has validated middle class ethics -- work hard, save
money, get ahead.
