NEW YORK (AP) - Barack Obama revealed Wednesday that former President Clinton, once the presidential nominee's nemesis, will campaign for him during the weeks leading up to Election Day.
"There's nobody smarter in politics," Obama said on CBS' "Late Show with David Letterman," scheduled to air Wednesday night. "And he is going to be campaigning for us over the next eight weeks, which I'm thrilled by."
The two were scheduled to have lunch Thursday at Clinton's office in New York. Clinton spokesman Matt McKenna said the former president would campaign for Obama at a yet-to-be announced site in Florida on Sept. 29, with plans for more fundraising and events in the works.
Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton already has been hitting the trail for Obama.
During the Democratic presidential primary, the former president acted as his wife's chief defender from Obama's successful challenge to her candidacy, which strained relations between him and Obama. Clinton portrayed Obama as too inexperienced for a presidential run, and Obama said sometimes it was hard to tell which Clinton he was running against.
The two didn't speak for nearly a month after the campaign ended, but their silence ended when Obama called and the former president offered to do whatever he could to help Obama win.

You forgot to finish the quote -- "And trust me, I am an expert about sleeping with pigs"
It just depends on what your definition of "LIKE" is. If it includes biting, raping, and fondling - he's your man!
And if you think he's really working for you Barry, I got this bridge...
Great. He helped Gore and Kerry too. And Hillary still can’t thank him enough.
LOL, The “Stainer in Chief”
There, I fixed it!
My guess is he screws up bigtime to position Hillary for 2012.

“I think if you are a former president, you don’t take Cabinet positions,” (Obama said)
He might take “first man”, though, if ya give him the chance.
They might as well get shrum to team up with billy-jeff.

Can McCain get this lucky? Was that collider thingy in Europe a new improved Karl Rove machine?
BWWAAaaaahahahaha. yer a hoot!!!!!
This should be good - NOT. Monica and Larry jokes all over the place. Descriptions of private parts again, one is bent the other one is supposedly to be described in detail soon. I’m gonna get sick.....
so true!
Now there is the kiss of death. Pack it in Bambi...you are done. Isn’t it unusual for a ex-president to be campaigning for another candidate? Don’t remember any republican past presidents doing that. Could be wrong.
Bringing the KNEE PADS, no doubt. Talk about pouring water on a drowning man!!
Wonder if a deal was struck? Obama will pay the millions that Hillary still owes.....Just wondering....
