Bill Clinton's speech at the Democratic National Convention endorsing his wife on Tuesday was "much worse" than when he spoke on behalf of President Barack Obama four years ago, political strategist Dick Morris told Newsmax TV on Wednesday.
"It was a waste of him," Morris told host John Bachman on "Dennis Michael Lynch: Unfiltered" in an interview. "It was like in chess, using your queen as a pawn rather than as a queen.
"But when he says that she was the 'designated warrior,' though he leaves the rest of it unsaid," he later added. "She became partner when he became governor.
"Her job was not to defend women and children. It was to bring in massive amounts of state business, for which she was highly compensated.
"When he says a 'designated warrior,' that's a flash of honesty," Morris told Bachman. "She was, but she manifested that warrior by stealing everything she could."
