Journo Love for Obama

NBC's Brian Williams took to MSNBC today at noon and had this to say:

WILLIAMS: I interviewed Lee Cowan, our reporter who covers Obama, while we were out yesterday and posted the interview on the web. Lee says it's hard to stay objective covering this guy. Courageous for Lee to say, to be honest. The e-mail flood started out we caught you guys, we never did trust you. That kind of thing. I think it is a very interesting dynamic. I saw middle-aged women just throw their arms around Barack Obama, kiss him hard on the cheek and say, you know, I'm with you, good luck. And i think he feels it, too.

I discussed this here and here.

This is very dangerous stuff in a democracy.  If reporters can't be objective about Senator Obama, they should be reassigned. We are electing a president of the United States, not a president of the senior class.

Another good post about Obama is at Power Line, here.

Maturity, people.  Maturity.
