From Mike Allen’s pool report on the president’s debate walk-through this afternoon:
“The event was labeled ‘Closed Press’ but the Good Lord
gave your pooler occasional X-ray vision and it can be reported that the
President, wearing a blazer and blue shirt but no tie, stood in a relaxed manner
behind the podium as various aides buzzed in clumps nearby, with Eric Draper
recording the scene down front. The President at one point gestured animatedly,
as if delivering a series of well-honed and forceful lines.”
