And I believe every single word Mr Clinton has to say - he has shown he is such an ethical man and so has his party. Very much like the scorpion and the frog - you end up finding that the Dems are the scorpion and the frog is the American people. Every word from their mouth is a lie including "is" and "the".

        O'Donnell and Nov. 2010

Do you think Tea Party favorite Christine O'Donnell will win Delaware's Senate race in November?

        Yes. Her views represent a lot of people.
        No. She's too conservative to be elected.
        Who knows?

WASHINGTON <http://www.nydailynews.com/topics/Washington%2c+DC> - Former President Bill Clinton said Sunday he feels the rage of Tea Party voters - but said they are misplacing the blame.

"A lot of the voters who are voting for the Tea Party candidates have really good impulses. That is, they believe that for years and years and years, the people with wealth and power or government power have done well and ordinary people have not," Clinton said.

Clinton, speaking on NBC <http://www.nydailynews.com/topics/NBC+Universal+Inc.>'s "Meet the Press" <http://www.nydailynews.com/topics/Meet+the+Press> and CBS <http://www.nydailynews.com/topics/CBS+Corporation>' "Face the Nation," called the Tea Party movement "a general revolt against bigness - which in the case of the Republicans is always directed more against the government than private sector."

But Clinton, a Democrat, argued that unchecked private power is the bigger threat to Americans' well-being.

He argued that the Tea Party is "bankrolled by people who want to weaken the government so that there will be even more unaccounted-for private concentration of power - and that's what got us in the mess that we're in in the first place."

Clinton also said Tea Party candidates like Delaware GOP <http://www.nydailynews.com/topics/Republican+State+Committee+of+Delaware> Senate hopeful Christine O'Donnell <http://www.nydailynews.com/topics/Christine+O%27Donnell> - who hastily canceled two scheduled Sunday talk-show interviews - need to spell out where they stand "on the important things."

"When you call her on something, she just says, 'Oh, everybody's playing negative politics,'" Clinton said.

On "Fox News <http://www.nydailynews.com/topics/FOX+News+Network+LLC> Sunday," Republican political guru Karl Rove <http://www.nydailynews.com/topics/Karl+Rove> said O'Donnell must explain to Christian communities in Delaware <http://www.nydailynews.com/topics/Delaware> what she meant when she said in a TV panel discussion 10 years ago that she "dabbled in witchcraft."

Sen. Jim DeMint <http://www.nydailynews.com/topics/Jim+DeMint>, the highest-ranking elected official affiliated with the Tea Party, had a different warning for Republicans. He said the GOP <http://www.nydailynews.com/topics/U.S.+Republican+Party> can't take the energized Tea Party voters for granted and must deliver on slashing government or face political doom.

"If we get the majority again, even if it's just in the House, and we don't do what we say, I think the Republican Party is dead," said DeMint (R-S.C.).
