uhmm. confession time.

i kind of don’t blame monica lewinsky for..uhmm..doing what she did to..uhmm..bill clinton. you have to admit, he is kind of sexy. ok fine, he is sexy. he’s super smart, tall, charming and well, powerful. well, used to be poweful. but still. i remember this story from my ex boss in new york. when bill was his client and they rode a town car to go crosstown from 1st avenue to west end or something like that and he gave bill a 5-inch stack of stuff to read. by the end of the trip, bill absorbed the material like a sponge! he knew everything from cover to cover. you ask him a question about the stuff in that stack, he would shoot out answers in amazing detail. truly one of the most brilliant political minds of the 20th century.

anyway, ricky(yah, we’re sort of die-hard democrats displaced in the third world country) called me up yesterday morning just to tell me to stop whatever i was doing and look for bill clinton’s speech in yesterday’s DNC. and i found it on youtube -

“Most important, Barack Obama knows that America cannot be strong abroad unless we are strong at home. People the world over have always been more impressed by the power of our example than by the example of our power.”

HUBBA BUBBA! man, THAT WAS HOT

douchebagger-y of the past years aside, you have to admit, bill still has IT. he is emphatic and charming and powerful. there’s nothing sexier than a man who is passionate and holds onto his convictions.

p.s.
hats off to my girl, hillary clinton. her speech the other night was another milestone for the denver dnc what an >amazing speech! i hate to admit this but like chelsea, my hero is my mother(just don’t tell that to my mom *wink*).
