Just saw this and had to say are you serious? He left office with a near 70% approval rating which is the highest in history. Having Bill Clinton show up for you is a hell of a good thing.

Not sure how it would hurt anybody to have him on your side.

He might be tied with the highest in history. Actually Clinton managed to eek out an approval rating tie with Reagan as he left office. Both finished at 68% while Reagan got the best of Clinton disapproval wise, with a 26% versus Clinton's 30%.

CBS Poll From 1989---
"Ronald Reagan's presidency ended at a high level of public approval, matched only by that of Bill Clinton and Franklin Roosevelt among modern presidents, and at about the highest level during his own unusually popular terms of office. Asked if they approved or disapproved of the way Ronald Reagan handled his job as President since 1981, a CBS News/New York Times Poll conducted in January 1989 showed 68 percent of Americans approved. Just 26 percent disapproved."

Still remarkably high considering he was legitimately impeached, fined by a federal judge and then disbarred.
