(CNN) — Sen. Barack Obama and former President Bill Clinton are expected to meet in the next few days, according to the chairman of Sen. Hillary Clinton’s unsuccessful presidential bid. Terry McAuliffe said the former president was angered by media reports suggesting he bore a grudge against Obama after the Illinois Democrat’s at-times bruising primary campaign against his wife and did not plan to actively support Obama in the general election. “He was angry that these ridiculous stories were out here, and these supposed close friends of the president — none of the close friends ever got called,” McAuliffe said, referring to anonymous sources quoted in some stories. “What happens, a lot of time, is people like to pretend they’re close so they can tell the reporters that they’re close, but, you know, they’re just talking.” |
