I guess the word of the post is “nice,” but I must admit, I, too, must say it: “It was a nice gesture–and was not dutiful by a sitting U.S. President. Rather it seemed respectful, genuine, collegial…B.O. gets a fist pump from ALL Illinoisans on this one for displaying genuine class.

Its an awesome moment but Mark Kirk just guaranteed himself a primary from Joe Walsh next time.

Good luck with that.

LOL you know I don’t think Walsh has a chance, but given Walsh’s tone as of late, hell as of always, I could see him doing that.
