AS CHAOS UNFOLDS, FIND SOLID GROUND…Los Angeles Times:
At a lunch meeting today with Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Barack Obama, former President Bill Clinton said he would do “a substantial number of things” to campaign for Obama this fall.

Clinton said he would do “whatever I’m asked to do” for Obama.
