There is no such thing as an "unintentional leak" when it comes to Washington politics. In fact, I'm going to go out on a limb and guess Rahm Emanuel intentionally had an Obama low level staffer leak this straight to Drudge. Think about all the "leaks" just over the past election cycle. They were all carefully planned and orchestrated.

Really, what damage did it do to Obama? Nothing. He's riding in on a popularity level never seen before for a President elect, against an outgoing President with the lowest popularity level in 4 decades. He has a mandate and he's not even in office yet. The Washington Times story is the washover. The feel good story that both sides aren't really feuding with each other. Just wait. Obama's going to go in with guns ablazing over the next couple of months, the likes of which we've never seen before in a transition period. It's going to get uglier (which doesn't bother me because Bush is going to try and pass a bunch of bullsh*t policy before he leaves).

Rham Emanuel is famous for this crap. He did it to Clinton all of the time and that is why Clinton finally got rid of him. He will do more harm to Obama than he knows. This just make him look immature and not very professional. Whoever suggested Rham Emanuel for this position was not looking out for Obama.

One might say you all are... obsessed with what we are talking about. If it's such a bunch of garbage then why worry about it? Why do you care so much what other people talk about?

Get over it. She is doing at least an interview a day (one scheduled for tomorrow on CNN), and people are going to talk about her as a result.

That is so true. I have never seen such obsessing. She must scare them to death. It is sort of funny.

Are you still going on and on about this? Try to relax.
