Has Bill Clinton gone dotty? Or is he simply trying to sabotage his wife’s campaign so he can get back to work as a globe-trotting influence peddler? What is up with Bubba?

In a radio interview Monday with Pennsylvania station WHYY, the former president said that the Obama campaign “played the race card on me . . . and we now know from memos from the campaign and everything that they planned to do it all along.” (Audio clip here.) Today Clinton denied making the remark.

Later in the day a reporter asks Barack Obama about Clinton’s remarks. Not surprisingly, Obama is confused.

Sound Bite: “I have no idea what you’re talking about. What was he talking about? . . . Was there something that we had a plan to get him to say that my campaign was like Jesse Jackson’s? I don’t know what he’s referring to.”
