This story just makes me sick......

(CNN) — If Hillary Clinton and John McCain become their
party's presidential nominees, the general election race is likely to
be a love-fest.

At least according to Bill Clinton.

Campaigning in Spartanburg, South Carolina, Friday, the former
president brushed aside suggestions his wife would prove to be a
divisive nominee for the Democratic Party, pointing out how she has
successfully worked with Republicans in the Senate — including one of
the current GOP presidential candidates.

"She and John McCain are very close," Clinton said. "They always
laugh that if they wound up being the nominees of their party, it would
be the most civilized election in American history, and they're afraid
they'd put the voters to sleep because they like and respect each
other."

The comments may not be welcome by the McCain camp — which yesterday
faced fire from several of its rivals from winning the backing of the
New York Times — a longtime archenemy of conservatives.

Sens. McCain and Clinton last met publicly at an ABC debate earlier
January, when presidential candidates of both parties shared the same
stage. The two were seen exchanging pleasantries, and a Clinton side
said she told the Arizona senator he’d done a “good job” staging a
comeback in New Hampshire. He asked that she say hello to Bill Clinton
for him.
