Could Bill Clinton be elected President again?

President Bill Clinton said on Wednesday Congress should change the rule that barred him from seeking a third term in the White House, but stopped short of saying he wants to return as commander-in-chief.

Speaking at the John F. Kennedy Library and Museum here, Clinton questioned certain aspects of the 22nd Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, which prevents a person from being elected president more than twice.

Clinton said the amendment, passed after Franklin D. Roosevelt was elected to a record fourth term, should be changed simply to keep a person from being elected to more than two consecutive terms as president.

"I think since people are living much longer ... the 22nd Amendment should probably be modified to say two consecutive terms instead of two terms for a lifetime," Clinton said.

It's an interesting thought. I think a Clinton/Bush matchup would be extremely close. Clinton is an excellent politician and would get a great many of the votes he had before; some Soccer Moms and centrists. However, the Clinton mystique has taken a pretty good beating in the last two years. Since he left office, and with 9-11 and the two subsequent wars, people may not buy into his schtick anymore. Bush is trusted (as much as any politician could be) by a large portion of the country. I believe Bush would win in a close race.
