CNN: GWB defends Bill Clinton, attacks Obama
Speaking to "Fox News Sunday," Bush also offered to help McCain — criticized by many on the right for not sharing their positions on critical issues — make his case to conservatives if he becomes the nominee.

Bush is not endorsing a candidate. He also had praise for former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, calling him "a good, solid conservative person."

The president weighed in on the Democratic race, saying it "seems far from over to me." And he rejected criticism of former President Clinton's work on the campaign trail for Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y.

"I can understand why President Clinton wants to campaign hard for his wife. And those accusations that Bill Clinton's a racist, I think is just wrong. I just don't agree with it."

As for Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., Bush said, "I certainly don't know what he believes in."

So W doesn't like Obama very much? Why would it be?

2. That comment about Huckabee is the real whopper.
That's bad news for McCain.

4. It's a good thing to know where W stands, so that we can stand the other way.
