Why did the right hate Clinton?

Interesting analysis of the absolute hatred that the far-right in America have for Bill Clinton (if anyone doubts this fact, just look at some of the vitriol that has been in the media ever since his book was published)

Interestingly the piece contends that clinton is hated so much because he co-opted many of the Republican's policies, building a centre-right coalition thereby pushing the Republicans out of power.

It's actually reminiscent of tony Blair and New Labour, who acheived power by forgetting socialism and become the Conservative party under another name, with some appearance of compassion for the less fortunate sections of society
