Watched President Obama on Matthews again [View all]

but this time I looked at the audience better.

The President came through so human and honest, but I think Matthews had nothing to do with it (too many "I's" for him, AS usual)...

It was a good interview because of the faces of the kids in the audience. There was affection and respect in all the faces I saw, male and female. They inspired him, not Matthews. And you could hear a pin drop throughtout the interview so intently were they paying attention. Obama needed that, and got it.

The kids did a nice job.
