Forget the dream ticket of the ages, Clinton-Obama/Obama-Clinton 2008. All bets are off and so are the gloves.

The best part of their parting ways is the Hillary Clinton response of civility in the campaign and saying the Obama campaign is engaging “in the politics of personal destruction.”

Hollywood media mogul, David Geffen, wasn’t off base when he stated what many believe, that both Hillary and Bill Clinton were inveterate liars, reckless and out to establish an American political monarchy.

Mr. Geffen trashed the Clintons by adding, “Everybody in politics lies, but they do it with such ease, it’s troubling.”

Laughably, the Clinton camp wants an apology from Obama and that he “distance” himself from Geffen’s remarks.

“It’s not clear to me why I would be apologizing for someone else’s remarks,” Mr. Obama said, noting that Mr. Geffen doesn’t even have an official position with his campaign.

Obama spokesman Robert Gibbs added: “It is ironic that the Clintons had no problem with David Geffen when he was raising them $18 million and sleeping in the Lincoln Bedroom.”

Touché!
