Press Corp Ogles As Obama Parades Himself In Jeans

If you want to understand why the media coverage of Sen. Barack Obama's presidential campaign is so biased in his favor, check out this YouTube video clip taken on the candidate's plane after his victory in North Carolina. Watch as the ogling reporters implore an agent blocking their view to sit down as Obama prances around sporting a little . . . . for their benefit in blue jeans. Cameras flash as reporters speculate on what brand of jeans he's wearing. CNN posted the original video clip on its news site. As Obama talks on his cell phone and prances, he positions himself to maximize exposure down there, smiles at the journalists and says, "No flash." I say, no class.

    Typical reporting. This piece may very well have just swayed my vote.

  2. Yes, tarrandwoolley, I can definitely see why this would show that Obama would make a better president.

  3. To the first commenter....I am quite surprised with all of the important issues that will be decided by this election that this will have an impact on your vote.

    Annnnnnnnnnyway, someone having a bit of fun on a looooooooooooooooooooong campaign in a moment of frivolity causes him to be classified as having "No Class". Quick to pull the trigger on determining who has class and who does not.

    I say "No Humor"

  4. Someone needs to take a couple of steps backwards and explain why this is even newsworthy......it happened 3 weeks ago and wasn't even news then.

    Someone needs to advise Obama that he cannot dance. The two times I've seen him dancing around he was awful, no rhythm. It's embarassing.
