Loose cannon
“We had to figure out how to deal with a former president who was just lying, engaging in bald-faced lies,” Obama told Wolffe. When the author asked if Bill Clinton had gotten into his head, Obama replied, “Yes, but I got into his.”
True enough, and, according to Wolffe, that consideration entered into Obama’s thinking when it came to choosing a running mate. Obama instructed his aides to consider Hillary -- if and only if they thought she’d help the ticket win in November. “But,” Obama added, “I’m concerned about Bill Clinton being a loose cannon.”
