Obama on Obama
I couldn't help it, heard this on the radio this morning:
November 04, 2004
Calling it as "a silly question," Sen.-elect Barack Obama (D-IL) pledged "he would resist any overtures to run for president or vice president before the end of his six-year term as a U.S. senator," the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Said Obama: "I was elected yesterday. I have never set foot in the U.S. Senate. I've never worked in Washington. And the notion that somehow I'm immediately going to start running for higher office just doesn't make sense."
February 11, 2007
"I stand before you today to announce my candidacy for President of the United States."

Everyone in politics does this. It's all about timing.
