This has to be utter bullshit, right?

I had to look at this headline twice just to make sure I read that right. The Financial Times in Britain is saying that he said this during a meeting with their writers.

3. This says two things...

1) It's a back-handed slap and slam to McCain

2) Obama did not ask, and am sure there's a reason for that ;)

Would any endorsement have hurt Obama more than that of a wildly unpopular president from the opposing party?

6. If Dubya was willing to endorse Obama...

8. Tell me one instance where he reached across the aisle

Maybe there was that one time when he needed to wipe his reading glasses on a low-level aide.
