Bill Clinton Considered Joining the Republican Party?

Here's some strange news coming from the 2012 presidential campaign. Bill Clinton told Mitt Romney he considered joining the Republican party, and based what Bubba told Mitt for Brains, Mitt better keep a close eye on his wife when she is in the room with former president Clinton.

Mitt Romney says Clinton called him after the election.

“I spoke with President Clinton the day before yesterday. He called and spent 30 minutes chatting with me. He said, ‘A week out, I thought you were going to win.’ And he said, ‘But the hurricane happened, and it gave the president a chance to be presidential, and to look bipartisan. And you know, he got a little more momentum.’ And of course he also said that when he was watching Ann speak at the Republican convention, he decided he was tempted to join the Republican Party. So he may have just been effusive with generous comments as he chatted. He was very complimentary, by the way, of how well we did with middle-class voters, and he said they were surprised by how strong we were in Ohio and in other states with middle-class voters, they did exceptionally well with minorities, but white, middle-class voters, we really cleaned up with and that caught them by surprise.”
