'Here we go': Michael Bloomberg and Joe Biden's war over Barack Obama appears to be escalating [videos]

If you own a TV or use the internet, you may have noticed that Michael Bloomberg’s campaign has been running ads suggesting that the former New York City Mayor enjoyed a cozy relationship with — and possibly an endorsement from — former President Barack Obama:

Bloomberg opponent Joe Biden, who, like Bloomberg, has yet to actually be endorsed by Obama, is pushing back:

Naturally, Team Bloomberg has responded with a video suggesting that Joe Biden’s a big fan of his, too:

Joe Biden has dedicated his life to this country.

As a senator, and as a vice president, he has always stood by the side of great men.

We are honored to have Joe’s support. https://t.co/b8wjSbvuVO pic.twitter.com/PMqky0rXEC

Over to you, Joe:

I don’t endorse Republicans. https://t.co/uQMjLdxHA3

Taking bets on how long this little war will last.
