Quote of the Moment: Clinton (Bill)

ABC reporter Jake Tapper quotes Bill Clinton being interviewed by Charlie Rose, talking about Barack Obama. Clinton said regarding Obama's supporters:
"[as thinking] we're willing to risk it ... we're prepared to roll the dice."
Tapper recalls a similar quote in 1992 from George Bush campaign adviser, Robert Black: "This is not a time to gamble with our future. Electing Bill Clinton president would be rolling the dice."

Tapper is a decent journalist who has been with ABC for a while. I much preferred when he wrote for Salon.com. He's a much better writer than a television reporter. It's nice he has a blog at least (along with everyone else under the sun).
