WASHINGTON (AP) Former President Clinton says if Democrats want someone to dump on John McCain, he's not the guy.
Some members of his party have been complaining that Clinton has not been enthusiastic enough in his support for Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama, who defeated Clinton's wife in the primary campaign, and heaping too much praise on McCain.
But Clinton told CNN's "Larry King Live" on Wednesday that he doesn't think "dumping" on McCain or his running mate, Sarah Palin, is a winning strategy. He said undecided voters aren't interested in attacks but solutions for the problems they face.
"I just don't believe that getting up here and hyperventilating about Gov. Palin, or Sen. McCain for that matter, is a productive use of a former president's time and is not a vote-getter," he said, adding that he admires McCain even though he disagrees with several of his positions.

Couldn’t quit laughing about this when I saw it earlier today — don’t think that Bill likes Obama very well.
Welcome to the Stupid party, Bubba. After all, we’ve already prayed for ya here!
The CLintons so want Obama to lose. CLintons have a legacy to build..lmao
Is this for real??? Somebody hit me..
For some reason I can’t fathom, Bubba seems to dislike 0bama.
He really cannot stand him, can he?
* snort *
Bubba says nice things about Sarah Palin...and then refuses to dump on McCain. Who knew the guy had any class????
Dude, the revolutionaries behind 0bama regard Bubba as a Fascist Lite, and not the Godfather he’d like to be.
If by, “don’t think that Bill likes Obama very well,” you meant, “Bill Clinton absolutely hates Obama,” you’d be correct.
Hehehehe, Bill Clinton is carrying on “Operation Chaos” in the stealth mode.
McCain is speaking at his Global Scamming Forum within a week or so.
Yep, him and the Hildabeast are smiling from ear to ear while they twist the knife a little deeper into Obamarama's back. Don'tcha love it.
True dat. The health crisis appears to have mellowed Bill a bit. I think the Obama campaign dealing the race card against him was dirty pool -- or just desserts, some would say.
Anyhow, he has no good reason to go out of his way to support the O-Man.
I think the fact that 0bama screwed him out of the co-Presidential nomination might have something to do with it as well...
Bill wants Obama to lose. This is the only shot for Hillary in 2012.
Class has nothing to do with it. He is trying to get McCain elected. Period. If Obama wins, everything Bill Clinton tried to do with the "new Democrats" and the DLC is washed down the drain of history, and the Democratic Party will end up in obscurity.
Slick will say things like, "John McCain is an honorable man," or "Senator McCain led the fight in the Senate for my plan to normalize relations with Vietnam." And then, off-handedly, "Oh, but Obama's policies are better for the country."
All the hippies are up in arms about this one. LOL.
the lesser of 2 evils.. and Obama is one evil we do not want in the White House..ever!
