Did Bill Clinton just attack McCain as unstable.

Bill Clinton is pontificating on how well he knows Nelson Mandela at this Aspen Ideas Festival, in which Clinton's face looks lobster-red, and at one point he says "I'm probably one of the few people who's seen him mad." Oh brother. The whole thing comes off like something made on a public access channel. Anyway, out of nowhere he says, "Every living soul on this planet has some highly-justified anger. Everyone. If you know anybody who was a P.O.W. for any time, they can be going on for years and all of a sudden something will happen that will trigger all those bad memories."

Real subtle.

Was it an intentional swipe at John McCain and his famous temper? Well, you know that's how it's going to be interpreted. You know, it's amazing how he gets these digs in. Often they come after some long pontification about something else entirely, and then comes the swipe. He did it all during the primary season, as none of us need reminding. You might wanna listen to it and judge for yourself.
