    I agree totally JZ, we need to not let the press get us into the negative mode permanently; although the candidates are letting themselves fall into it as well. I do think she (Powers) should have known better – and why would you make that comment on or off the record? Just dumb
    Good interview !

    Condi and Bush.

    Power and Obama.

    Maybe those late night phone calls about his book werent’ the same as Bush’s late night calls to Condi.

    Ce Lionne – that’s a very interesting article! Thank you.

    One thing I don’t get is: I’ve read her accounts of how she got involved w/Obama’s campaign and she writes or talks about deciding to go and volunteer at a phone bank. But I’ve seen references, as in the article you site, to how Obama sought her out.

    Any thoughts on that?
