The Corner has been talking about it some this morning, but these sections of the Newsweek piece stood out for me:

Obama was explicit from the beginning: there was to be “no drama,” he told his aides. “I don’t want elbowing or finger-pointing. We’re going to rise or fall together.” Obama wanted steady, calm, focused leadership; he wanted to keep out the grandstanders and make sure the quiet dissenters spoke up. A good formula for running a campaign—or a presidency.

And…

The mood was grim; they had, after all, blown their third chance to end the primary season early—after the shock of New Hampshire and the muddled results of Super Tuesday. Obama toured the office, visiting every desk to thank his mostly young staffers for their efforts and urging them to keep their chins up. Then he walked into a conference room for a far tougher two-hour conversation with his senior staff. “We rise or fall together,” he started out. “I’m not pointing fingers at any single person because we all share responsibility.” He talked through his own mistakes as a candidate and went around the table asking people for their input in the postmortem. Speaking calmly but intensely, he then took control to explain how he saw it. He worked his way through a detailed, handwritten list of what went right and wrong—including how they misspent time and money, how they relied too much on impersonal rallies and how the schedule was flawed.
At the end of the meeting, Obama stood up and began to walk out of the room, before wheeling around to say one more thing to his somber staff: “I’m not yelling at you and I’m not screaming. Although for $20 million for two primaries and the results we got, I could,” he said, laughing. “But I’m not.”

Too bad for team Obama that Jake Tapper of ABC has taken the time to count the number of instances Obama has pointed the finger at his staff when it’s convenient. Tapper’s at 14 and counting.

If I had to bet, this one on Israel will be the next one to get some play:

Yesterday, in an interesting New York Times look at Obama’s rise in Chicago politics, we learned that in 2004 some Jewish supporters became alarmed to learn that in a questionnaire Obama refrained from denouncing Yasir Arafat, or from expressing strong support for Israel’s security fence.
Reports the Times: “In an e-mail message, Mr. Obama blamed a staff member for the oversight, and expressed the hope that ‘none of this has raised any questions on your part regarding my fundamental commitment to Israel’s security.’”
