My Take on Obama in Washington
The picture being played over and over in the MSM of Obama going around with the train of politicians surrounding him and following him is what I love about politics. I love the image of politicians walking and talking amounst themselves and making decisions. This is why I love this POWER-PLAY by Obama (which is what it is) because he knew all the cameras would be following him as he went around and talked with Dem leaders who are rallying around the realization that he WILL be our party nominee.

Measure that up with the scene of Hillary walking down the steps all by her lonesome with virtually no one paying much attention to her. I think the image side-by-side is very powerful. Most people know this race is over, and the media isn't buying the Clinton's argument anymore. Everyone is talking about how well Obama was recieved in the House of Representatives...as the leader of a Party would be recieved!
