Bush's Gift to Obama

Great point from First Read: "When President Bush -- thousands of miles away in Israel -- decided to fire his thinly veiled shot at Obama yesterday, it was a giant gift to the Illinois senator and his campaign. Why? One, it essentially kept Clinton on the sidelines just two days after her big West Virginia victory. Two, Obama's opponent was no longer Clinton or McCain, but the man with the 27% job-approval rating. And three, it rallied Democrats to Obama's side."

To keep the story going, Obama reportedly will make a "very vigorous" response to Bush's remarks today while campaigning in South Dakota.
