Washington Post: This Is How The Game Is Played

On the latest posting from The Fix, Chris Cillizza references NY Times of almost no consequence in reference to the ethics credentials of Senator Obama. This story, while trivial, is good news. Firstly, it means that Obama is getting the political seasoning that many have predicted and seems to be handling it fine, with forthright acknowledgment of his dealings that reveals that he holds himself to the same high standard he has set for public servants. Furthermore, it also reveals that this seasoning, from whatever interests are rightly digging into the record of a man who has signaled a desire to lead America, is going to be legitimate and when the Senator comes out clean, people will know that it was not because he was given a pass because he is a nice, articulate, clean guy.
