That’s the view of Newsweek’s Howard Fineman, who recounted a conversation he had with a Hillary Clinton fundraiser after Obama wrapped up the nomination in June.
The fundraiser said she pleaded with Obama to make overtures to a “potentially disruptive Bill Clinton.” According to Fineman, the fundraiser said: “I told Barack, ‘Have dinner. Clear the air. Win him over.’”
Obama “didn’t seem eager,” but he did make a brief call a month later, the fundraiser disclosed. When the fundraiser pressed Obama to do more, “Barack told me it was hard to find the time, and I said, ‘You’d better.’”
