Obama forgets about open mic, asks Putin for space
President
Obama seems pretty confident about winning the upcoming election, based
on some remarks he let slip today. Directly following a meeting between
Obama and current Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, an open mic caught Obama
asking for "space" to deal with missile defense. "After my election, I
have more flexibility," Obama said. The intended-to-be private comment
could put some, well, space between Obama and voters who would prefer he
finishes his first term before postponing things to his second. Next
time, maybe he should just pass a note to Putin: 'Can u give me some
space? Check yes or no.'
