Bill and W
From today's New York Times piece on the growing friendship between Bush 41 and Clinton:
[W's friend Roland] Betts... added in a brief interview this week that in his view the current president and Mr. Clinton were charismatic people and that they 'saw a little bit of themselves in each other, and they liked it.'
Of Gore, Bradley, McCain and Bush, the candidate most like Clinton was Bush, even though he sought to portray himself as the opposite--particularly to the GOP base. Now that W is in his second term he evidently feels comfortable admitting it.
