re: #812 powerplay

Can somebody explain to me why Obama WANTS to be on television? Is he painting himself into a corner? What happens when he makes a fool of himself with even the most sycophantic talk show hosts? (Jay Leno was bad enough)…..then WHERE will he go? Obama only talks to lapdog press outlets….but what happens when there are no more lapdogs?

Will he wind up only talking to the Huffington Post by the end of his first term?

He wants to be on television, because it’s all he knows how to do- campaign.
