Big Picture

Uhm, I just saw the video of the “big meeting” which showed Bush flanked by Pelosi and Reid. He blathered about something useless and then said they wouldn’t take any questions. The camera then panned over to McCain grinning like a jack-o-lantern and that was it.
If politics is TV with the sound turned off, this photo-op gave the impression that Bush, Pelosi and Reid are consulting McCain.
It’s probably just as well. This Dog and Pony show is not something Obama should wish to be associated with.
Update: Ok there’s some footage that shows Obama in the room.
