Tom Shales on last night’s presser:
Though polls show his popularity in slight decline, Obama did nothing at the news conference — other than preempt or delay some prime-time shows — that would seem potentially harmful to his image.

A WEEKLY STANDARD colleague reading this aloud to the office says, “even if I thought that, I would never write it.”
