President-elect Barack Obama and Commerce Secretary-designate New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson take part in a news conference today in Chicago.
I love this story:
Commerce Secretary-designate Bill Richardson tells Esquire how his new boss saved him during a Democratic primary debate:Every day I become more impressed with our new president. I know it's inevitable that the honeymoon will end (there are already a few negatives ::coughFISAcough::), but there has been ample confirmation that Obama is a genuinely stand-up guy.
"As I'm chatting with Obama, the moderator says, 'Governor Richardson, what do you think of that?' And I look at him like a deer in the headlights. I was about to say that I hadn't heard, when Obama puts his hand over his mouth and says, 'Katrina.' So I gave my four-point plan on Katrina. When I was done and the debate moved on, I looked over and said, 'Thanks, you're okay.' He said, 'Nothing to it, brother.'"

He is not going to please everyone all of the time, but as long as he works hard to make our collective country better, he has my support.
I think the thing that makes the difference at the end of the day when all is said and done is that the guy genuinely gives a shit about people.
