Bill attacks the middle-class, Hillary attacks Gore and Kerry

With all the talk about Obama noting, correctly, that Americans are bitter about politics and their overall economic situation (and thus turning to divisive issues like guns), it's interesting to note how Bill Clinton has repeatedly said the same thing. Will the mainstream media hold Hillary as accountable as Obama for this kind of talk?

"If [Republicans] could cut funding for Medicare, Medicaid, education, and the environment, middle-class Americans would see fewer benefits from their tax dollars, feel more resentful paying taxes, and become even more receptive to their appeals for tax cuts and their strategy of waging campaigns on divisive social and cultural issues like abortion, gay rights, and guns."

-- Bill Clinton, in his 2004 memoirs, My Life, making the same argument as Sen. Barack Obama.

Not to be outdone, Hillary (who along with her husband made $109m this decade) just had this to say about Al Gore and John Kerry (via Ben Smith):

You don’t have to think back too far to remember that good men running for president were viewed as being elitist and out of touch with the values and lives of millions of Americans.

She's likely not attacking her own husband, so she must mean Gore and Kerry. Why drag them through the mud as well? Because she can.
