Clinton dies (in the stand-up comic sense) at the Palmer House

WLS in Chicago reports:

CHICAGO (WLS)—Former President Bill Clinton’s ‘get out the vote’ rally for Democrats at a downtown Chicago hotel was the most unenthusiastic WLS veteran political reporter Bill Cameron has ever witnessed.

Clinton was an hour late for the Tuesday afternoon rally at the Palmer House and droned on for another hour, sending dozens of the few hundred Democrats in attendance for the exits.

“Well, all we’re really asking for is two more years, that’s a total of four, to get us out of the hole and get us into the future. That’s half as much time as you gave them to dig the hole. Seems fair to us,” Clinton said.

“Well, all we’re really asking for is two more years, that’s a total of four, to get us out of the hole and get us into the future.”

That’s what the Democrats’ top cheerleader and most popular figure is reduced to, six days before the elections? Wow! I think the Democrats are going to lose 16,000 seats in the House, easy.
