Related: About this forumWhat states should Bill Clinton campaign in?
Going to be exciting seeing Bill Clinton back on the campaign trail.
Any thoughts on what states he'd be most effective? Where should he campaign?
Do you look back fondly on Bill Clinton's time in office as an era of prosperity? President Barack Obama's re-election campaign hopes you dobecause it will be unleashing the gifted politician, sometimes known as "the Big Dog," in battleground states.
"I anticipate that he'll be one of our principal surrogates in the fall," a senior Obama campaign official told several dozen reporters at a briefing held in Washington. The session, which included six top Obama campaign officials, was held on condition that they not be named.
