Joking with Bill Clinton

Despite the negativity in the air on the campaign trail there is mercifully still some room for levity and the humor has centered on the first true, major question of the 21st century...If Hillary Clinton wins the presidency, what will everyone call Bill? Will he be the First Man? The First Spouse? The First Laddie, as Mr. Clinton previously joked?

The topic of Mr. Clinton's role in the White House pops up now and then and this week Fred Thompson jokingly mentioned that NRA convention that his wife would make a better "First Lady" than Bill Clinton. Mitt Romney has said that in terms of First Ladies, his wife would be much prettier than Bill Clinton. In a recent interview on the Daily Show with Jon Stewart, said that he would "slit his own throat" at the prospect of being called the "First Husband." (Ouch).

The campaign trail has heated up recently in terms of inflammatory rhetoric as the controversy over the Move On advertisement has led to a great deal of animosity on both sides that has resulted in a lot of terse exchanges. Because of this, the campaign trail has taken on a somewhat grave tone. Thankfully, there exists some room for levity and it is appreciated.
