President-elect Obama's image makers were certainly on the ball today, presenting the next president in a setting that looked very presidentialish.

They managed to turn part of room at Chicago Hilton and Towers into a space resembling the White House Cabinet Room.

Compare that with this Oct. 15 Cabinet Room scene when President Bush met with his cabinet about the economy.

Or this photo from Bush's Sept. 25 meeting with the presidential candidates and congressional leaders on the financial-bailout package.

Just curious- Who is picking up the HOTEL TAB- Hes not President yet-----


Since Penny Pritzker, CEO of Hyatt, is sitting at that table, I doubt that there is much of a bill.


That's Nancy Pelosi. And Bush. I doubt Bush was at the hotel today.
