    Hillary Clinton's Husband Problem

    Photograph of Bill and Hillary Clinton by Stan Honda/AFP/Getty ImagesBill Clinton's remarks on "Charlie Rose" last week had more than a whiff of frustration. They made Hillary's campaign seem a little desperate. And so it's not surprising to read this morning that some of her advisers wish he would tone it down. I wonder if he should just shut up altogether for a while. I know Bill is her contra-Oprah celebrity asset, but he is making her look small by comparison while he flails around. Forgive the psychobabble, but he seems like a husband who either wants something for his wife too badly, or is acting that way to cover an act of subconcious but supreme sabotage.
