What do you think he said?

Obama dragged Lieberman by the hand to a far corner of the Senate chamber and engaged in what appeared to reporters in the gallery as an intense, three-minute conversation.

While it was unclear what the two were discussing, the body language suggested that Obama was trying to convince Lieberman of something and his stance appeared slightly intimidating.

Using forceful, but not angry, hand gestures, Obama literally backed up Lieberman against the wall, leaned in very close at times, and appeared to be trying to dominate the conversation, as the two talked over each other in a few instances.

Still, Obama and Lieberman seemed to be trying to keep the back-and-forth congenial as they both patted each other on the back during and after the exchange.

Afterwards, Obama smiled and pointed up at reporters peering over the edge of the press gallery for a better glimpse of their interaction.

12. Last night Mike Malloy said there was an additional report on

HuffPo detailing all of it, but if he did say what it was, I missed it. I can't find the article he referenced, either.

14. Obama talks with Clinton, Lieberman

Earlier in the day, Lieberman participated in a conference call with reporters organized by House Minority Chief Deputy Whip Eric Cantor (R-Va.) in which Lieberman criticized Obama’s stance on the Middle East, a move that will surely further alienate Lieberman from the Democratic caucus he abandoned in 2006 to become an independent.

The two had what appeared to be an animated, if civil conversation that lasted at least three minutes. At one point Lieberman was literally backed against a wall, as Obama placed his hand on his shoulder and made several animated points.
