This is Day 1 for the presumptive Democratic nominee Barack Obama. It's vital that he show Americans that old style politics is out; and that he can usher in a new era of politics based on enormous good will.
He's told us he'd talk to Iran. McCain sees that as horrific. New politics vs. old. Nice contrast there.
Obama's first step was to initiate the search for a Vice President. In keeping with the "new politics" theme, he's put together a team of 3 to put together a list of candidates.
You know, I'm going to love new politics. Out with the Washington Insiders. In with the new.
