Bill Clinton seen as upstaging Hillary

Hillary Clinton's husband may be a political genius, but he's also a Bill in a china shop.

And Tuesday, he went on a minirampage, grabbing unflattering headlines and hogging the spotlight at an event with Magic Johnson while stumping for his wife in Des Moines.
Campaigning at a Hy-Vee supermarket, he broke past a rope line at the carefully scripted stop to greet star-struck Iowans, creating near-chaos. A swarm of reporters followed the ex-President into the deli and produce sections. The basketball legend and senator were left mostly with the autograph seekers, while Bill Clinton answered questions about Sen. Joseph Lieberman from the political press and about the former First Couple's private life from "Entertainment Tonight."
