Clinton can give a great speech, sure, but much of the time, he never has much of substance to say. The Vice President did a great job last night, anyway. Besides, I have heard several times that this was planned out a long time ago by Nancy and Ronald. Maybe Reagan didn't like Bill Clinton, who knows, but it wouldn't surprise me. It's the family's choice. This is a time to play honor to a great man, not let Clinton weasel his way into the spotlight again.
BTW, I saw Lady Thatcher last night pay her respects to Ronald's casket. It gave me chills. An amazing woman. God bless her.
