I read something the other day along the lines of " Hillary Clinton must be the only person in the world so arrogant as to refuse to take political advice from Bill Clinton. "
I think she actually believed her own/medias press that she saved Bill during Monicagate. She took that mistaken assumption with her throughout her career, never once realizing she only had a career because people were either giving bill payback or 'buying' access to his influence.
Bill was/is a POS for sure. But his appeal to the masses was always his pseudo southern boy/Elvis looks and good ol' boy approach. Yea behind the smile he was a shark but most people never realized it.
