The phrase "No Drama Obama" was born March 12, 2008, when retired Air Force Gen. Merrill McPeak, who was campaigning for Obama, labeled him "No Shock Barack, No Drama Obama." It is fair to say that this useful and rhyming campaign slogan finally and formally was laid to rest last Sunday, when -- after weeks of Illinois transition opera bouffe and colorful Caroline Kennedy Senate-snatching efforts -- Obama's designated commerce secretary, Bill Richardson, withdrew his name one step ahead of a New Mexico grand jury.
This "transition" is getting stranger by the day. "No Drama Obama," I love it!

Did not vote for the man but do hope he and the rest of the Feds do a great job - I really want to see our economy thrive.

Bet you won't be seeing many negative words thrown at Obama by the National press /TV news anytime soon... ever? Which is great except if someone besides Obama had won it would be a whole different story - they would be back to jumping all over every big or little thing they could find and criticizing no matter what the person did.

Illinois transition? Are you talking about the filling of Obama's old Senate seat? What does that have to do with Obama? What does Caroline Kennedy have to do with Obama?

And how exactly is Miss Kennedy trying to "snatch" a Senate seat?

This article can only be considered as "cute". Obama is not yet President..I repeat..Obama is not yet President. Saying that people in his "proximity" jeopardizes Obama is simply "cute". Define proximity..The Clintons had donors Really I thought they were politicians

Obama's transition has been so smooth that people reach for this junk..Very "cute".
