Well, it seems that some of the president's political advisers are catching Obama-mania. Insiders tell us that the team that once thought Sen. Hillary Clinton had a headlock on the Democratic presidential nomination now believes that challenger Sen. Barack Obama's chances are rising as voters take a good look at him and his optimistic message. In fact, one Bush adviser who accurately predicted Bill Clinton would emerge from a crowded 1992 field put the odds at near even that Obama would eke out a victory. "He's been doing better," says the adviser, who adds that Obama has to prove that "he can walk over hot coals, because that's what it's going to take."

2. It appears Obama can take care of himself. Hopefully, he won't fold

like Kerry did with that eyes in the headlight look.

I think O'b was aware of this, going in and, knowing that crew, some of those scares on his life may have originated right there with them. I don't trust them any further than I can see them. I never thought I'd reach that point in my life when I'd say such a thing, but they leave me no choice. I just don't trust them.

The fact he is drawing in so many young people has got to scare them...not so much for 2008, but for the future of the Republican party.
