Woo's next?

By GottaLaff

Hmmm:

Is Obama Wooing McCain?

Christopher Orr speculates that by making nice with Sen. Joe Lieberman, President-elect Obama gives "a kind of peace offering to John McCain, a sign that there are no hard feelings and that Obama is serious about working with the 'other' side... Assuming he's on the list of Republicans with at least occasionally 'gettable' votes on Obama's priorities (along with Snowe, Collins, etc.) what better way to get him... than to use his pal Joe as a goodwill ambassador?"

Another favor: Putting Arizona Gov. Janet Napolitano in his cabinet. "McCain said this week that he intends to run for reelection in 2010, and by far the largest obvious obstacle for him was Napolitano, whose term-limited tenure as governor is up the same year, whom many had speculated might challenge McCain for his seat, and who even led him in one (very) early poll."

With friends like these, "woo" needs enemies?
