The most talked about lunch in the Nation's Capital
Hillary dashes into White House for lunch with Obama
In what has become the most talked about lunch in the nation's capital, President Obama and Hillary Clinton dined privately at the White House Monday (July 29).
Primary topic reportedly on their agenda.... “It’s largely friendship that’s on the agenda for the lunch today,” said Josh Earnest, the deputy press secretary. “So it’s not a working lunch as much as it is an opportunity for the two who saw each other on a pretty frequent basis over the course of the last four years to get a chance to catch up.”

From the AP on the Obama-Clinton lunch:
While it's not the first time the pair have seen each other since Clinton left the administration earlier this year, each of their get-together's are closely analyzed.
That's because Clinton is considered a leading contender to replace Obama, though she hasn't said whether she'll launch another presidential campaign.
The president is also being watched for signs of who he will support in the race to replace him. Vice President Joe Biden is also believed to be considering a run for the White House, potentially leaving Obama caught between two of his closest advisers.
