President Clinton visits Asheville ***UPDATED WITH VIDEO OF THE SPEECH***

Addressing a crowd of thousands at Pack Square Park in downtown Asheville, former Pres. Bill Clinton praised Congressman Heath Shuler as a leader who has fought for more jobs, better education and fiscal responsibility. The Democrat is facing a challenge from Republican Jeff Miller to represent Western North Carolina’s District 11.

Imploring voters to reelect the two-term incumbent, Clinton evoked Shuler’s past football career throughout the 45-minute speech, saying, “America’s playing a football game with the rest of the world” and that he was trying to show people the “game film” of why Shuler deserves another term.

To make his case, Clinton cited Shuler’s support of pay-as-you-go budget policy, Wall Street reform, clean-energy legislation, and college-loan reform, as well as his efforts to fight childhood obesity, among other achievements.

“His ideas are better than the other guy’s; it doesn’t have anything to do with party,” Clinton asserted. “If you want to get more jobs, then you don’t have a choice: You’ve got to vote for Heath Shuler.”

Clinton described the current anti-incumbency election climate as the result of Republican policies, under former Pres. George Bush, that plunged the country into economic recession.

“After me, we went back to trickle down economics,” Clinton continued, blaming Republican policies for record deficits and high unemployment. He then criticized Miller for wanting to continue the Bush tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans.

Clinton also railed against a media culture that “turns politicians into cardboard cutouts” and that values sound-bites more than substantive conversation.

“Our country’s got a fever,” he said, warning attendees not to be swayed by misleading commercials funded by outside groups and private interests. “They tried to do reverse plastic surgery on Heath in this campaign. … Every time you make a decision out of fear, you make a mistake.”

Clinton also thanked the crowd for giving him the opportunity to be president and offered praise for the local area, telling stories of past visits to the Grove Park Inn and the Thomas Wolfe Memorial.

“This is one of my favorite places in America,” he declared. “I love Asheville and I love Western North Carolina…. Heath Shuler is the leader WNC deserves.”

  1. J

    How two years can make a difference!

    Back in 2008, ScruHoo was opining that Bill Clinton was a race-baiter: http://tinyurl.com/382on7m.

    Now Gordon’s out there supporting the race-baiter. There’s something to be said for partisanship/tribalism, it helps bridge the differences we used to have (or discard previous concerns).

  2. “Bill Clinton represents everything that is wrong with the Democratic Party. “
    True that…all style and no substance.
    A monumental disappointment.

  3. UnaffiliatedVoter

    Did anyone hear Billary MENTION Obama at all?

    Did Heath Shuler announce how much money he raised in Memphis TN yesterday???

  4. Gordon Smith

    I hate that I missed this today. Thanks for the reportage. I’m proud of Asheville for being host to so many national political figures over the last few years.

    I see that Jake Frankel, Michael Muller and Margaret Williams co-authored this report. Folks ought to read bylines more often.

  5. UnaffiliatedVoter

    Did Billary explain HOW Shuler would ‘create jobs’? Seems like ALL candidates feel they can do it, but never can…why is that?

  6. Dionysis

    “Did anyone hear Billary MENTION Obama at all?”

    Now stand at the chalkboard and write the following 100 times:

    Obama is not running for re-election this year. Obama is not running for re-election this year.
    Obama is not running for re-election this year.

    Now you try it.

  7. BigAl

    Barry O may not be running, but this election is CLEARLY a referendum on the public’s reaction to his first two years as President.

    Now go clean your own blackboard.

  8. BigAl

    OK, before some egg-head nit-picks my grammar, I realize that “referendum” implies “public reaction”, and what I should have said was:

    Barry O may not be running, but this election is CLEARLY a referendum on his first two years as President.

  9. JWTJr

    D, shoving your head in the sand to cover your ears and repeating the same thing over and over won’t make the Democrat problem go away.

    BO is toxic … get it … BO is toxic?

    I’m a lyrical genius.

  10. hal millard

    Thanks for the 2,917 words via Twitter feeds. Sooooo helpful, and sooooo interesting. If MX is going to use Twitter, which it seems hellbent on doing, then for godsakes please learn how to do it. Otherwise, it’s just ponderous B.S. posing as “journalism.”

  11. Piffy!

    b]. If MX is going to use Twitter, which it seems hellbent on doing, then for godsakes please learn how to do it. [/b]

    Actually, they are doing it right.

    That’s how it looks.

    I’m curious, tho cullen, how do you think one should ‘do it’?
