Obama - blogs and pundits

There is a lot of Obama blogging going on, and the media is in a tizz. I will post far less than I have read. The best is still this pre-hysteria piece by Gary Younge, a Guardian columnist whose task it is to interpret American politics and society for the chattering classes of Britain (and he does it pretty well, too.)

Also worth a look:

• Caroline Kennedy stumps for Obama
• The Illusion of Leadership
• Jon Stewart's attempts to mock Obama make his liberal audience nervous
• An earlier story on the same subject (slightly different take)
  
• Overheard conversation between David Cameron and Obama
