Clinton: Obama ‘Deserves’ Reelection

Bill makes first-ever campaign stop for Obama.

The current and former presidents are tackling the 2012 election season together. President Obama and Bill Clinton joined forces when appearing at a Virginia fundraiser Sunday night, with two more set for the near future. Clinton told supporters that “Barack Obama deserves to be reelected president of the United States” and joked about Romney’s camp referring to the Soviet Union as a U.S. enemy. Clinton, the fundraising powerhouse, is a valuable ally during the campaign season and was making his first appearance at an Obama event after the two had a tension-filled back-and-forth during the 2008 Democratic primary, although has become a White House ally. Clinton told those in attendance at the campaign dinner that Obama is “beating the clock” to restore the economy to good standing.
