Obama seems to pass the media's all important "you'd want to have a beer with him" test

[bluestateguy]

It's not important to me. I'm not electing a friend, but rather, a president (though I'd be happy to have John Edwards as both). In any event, this notion of "you'd just want to have a beer with him" seems important to the lords of the MSM and apparently to many Americans as well. At least Obama seems to pass the test and this would not be a concern if he were nominated.

2. I think even MSM realizes the disaster the "beer" test has resulted in.

Give me a person who can teach Constitutional law. We'll share a grape juice.
