Picture of the Day
I appreciate that to some degree that it's a stunt, that Obama's contribution to filling sandbags along the river is a relatively tiny thing, but it is something. It raises profile and probably brought out some more volunteers, (demographically young fit volunteers,) and it's a damn sight better than looking out the window of a plane.
George Bush was in Paris yesterday, and John McCain pretty much took the day off holding a "virtual town hall" from his headquarters.
