Were you worried? I hope you weren’t really worried. They’re all lovey-dovey again: Bill and Barack put the rows behind them.

Those who feared Bill Clinton wanted no part of the hugs, back slaps, protestations of party unity and general love accompanying his wife’s campaign appearance with Barack Obama can now relax.

Bill and Barack, who spent ample time during the 16-month Democratic primary contest sniping at one another, are on speaking terms once more, the Obama campaign said yesterday.

“Senator Obama had a terrific conversation with [former] president Clinton and is honoured to have his support in this campaign,” a statement from the Obama campaign said yesterday. “He looks forward to seeing him on the campaign trail and receiving his counsel in the months to come.”
