Joe Gandelman / The Moderate Voice:
Bill Clinton As Victim: Says His Message is “99.99″ Percent Positive  —  If you say something often enough ("It's a brand new pre-owned car!"  “Iraq has weapons of mass destruction!"  “Why, honey, that dress doesn't make you look fat!") you might get others — and perhaps yourself — to believe it.
