Artful Dodger: What press are you speaking of? or media in general.The press is played by both parties much like a coach works the refs.Historically both parties have had the press in their pockets at one time or another,even GW had his moments in the sun.When I read "Obama's relationship to Blagojevich is important to know' it reminds me of all the others who's name was placed at the top of that quote in relation to Obama this past election.Rezco,Wright,Ayers,it never ends.The investigation into Blagojevich is underway,if Obama has done anything wrong we'll find out.I suppose if a politician went to a concert not knowing that a former axe murderer was also at the show we'd be hearing "blankity blank's relationship to Dave the axe murderer is important to know" Can you imagine how this "guilt by being in the same time zone" mentality is effecting any politician who aspires for office these days?
they probably won't enter a burger king without doing background checks on everyone in line
