(362 posts)I mentioned Orson Scott Card, and that really surprised me, because he hates Obama with the intensity of a blazing star.
Mike Huckabee said something similar.
I could find more, and I know there are others, though I admit to not knowing names off the top of my head. If you want to read conservatives willing to appear sane in public (LOL), you want to look at the National Review or Commentary.
I think the larger point is that if youre going to demonize someone for their personal or moral failures, its really tough to do with Obama. The absolute worst truthful thing you could probably say about him is that he sometimes seemed overly cocky (and really, once he became the President, even that basically ended.)
With Bill Clinton there are some legitimate character issues which, fairly or not, hurt the overall Clinton name.
