This was a great interview. Pity Steve Croft is such a light weight - I would have been more intersted in questions from Morley Schaffaer. But Obama and Michele were wonderful.

I can't find the other part (or any other 60 Minutes videos) on CBS's site. Can anyone help out with a link? Thanks

it is truly strange to have a president that speaks in sentences. and it even sounds like he's telling the truth, weird...

I'm so not used to having a President whose face I'm not itching to put a hatchet into.

Well, it was a lightweight interview. But still, he speaks very forthrightly and intelligently, and -- what a novelty -- he speaks in complete, understandable sentences.

After 8 years of Bush, and a couple months of listening to Palin mangle sentences, it is so refreshing to listen to Obama. Every time Bush or Palin garble a thought, it made me cringe. I literally couldn't listen to an entire Bush speech; it would just make my neck knot up. Listening to Obama is so soothing in comparison. Aahhhh...
