When we last saw the last Democratic ex-president of the United States, he was really, really getting ready to go out and campaign for this very ambitious young fellow from Illinois who with his Windy City crowd beat the ex-president's wife out of her rightfully inherited White House.
No hard feelings though, not among fellow Democrats. Not even when the winner didn't pick the near-winner as his female runDemocratic presidential candidate Senator Barack Obama and former Democratic president Bill Clinton in happier daysning mate, leaving an opening the size of Alaska for the Republican presidential nominee to pick a female running mate and shake the whole race up real good.
The Democratic ex-president made the wannabe Democratic president come up to his Harlem office last week to have lunch, all friendly like.
The ex-president made a prediction about Nov. 4 on-camera: "I predict that Sen. Obama will win and win handily."
That sound bite got wide play, as it was meant to because it was short and to the point. Also, the ex-president and the ex-president's wife don't want anyone to be able to say they caused the wannabe president's defeat come November, which is exactly four years from when they intend to win the White House themselves for good.
And although no one actually saw the two men shake hands at that friendly luncheon last week, their aides assured the media that everything went really well. So it must be true.
Now, it's one week later. And the ex-president tore himself away from still preparing to go out and campaign for the kid long enough to go on CNBC because ...
... several hundred people a day watch that channel and it's a good opportunity to not yet be out on the road campaigning.

NAH...........they’ll still follow him into a limo any day......what was I thinking.
Well how about that? The cotton pickin’ LA Times has it right.
I recorded Obama and Bubba:
O: “Mr. President, I am asking for your help in my campaign against the evil empire.”
B: “You sumbitch! You screwed us over big time. Everyone sees us smiling here, but I’m gonna do diddly-squat for you but make it look like I’m supportin’ you.”
O: “Uh, um I really, you know, want to uh, thank you, uh for your support. Uh, maybe Mrs. Clinton could...”
B: “Shut the hell up, bat boy, fore I smack your ears off, you emeffer!”
O: “Er, um, I appreciate your point of view sir, and thank you very much. Uh, I’ll, uh, you know, see you around, hey?”
B: “Dream on, dumbo.”
The Clintonistas will be around for at least 4 more years if uhObama is elected.
Here's why Obama doesn't have a birth certificate.
