Obama has to learn how to wrangle the press better:

Toward the end of the press conference, the question of Goolsbee’s meeting was raised again. Obama answered curtly and then walked out after a staffer called last question. The press erupted with shouts, but Obama continued to walk out.

He paused only to say, “Come on guys; I answered like eight questions. We’re running late.”

On the flight from San Antonio to Dallas, Obama, unsurprisingly, did not wander back to make small talk with the traveling press corps.

This kind of story just looks really bad, especially that last detail. One thing you can definitely say for McCain, the man knows how to make the press corps eat out of his hand. He’d be in the back of the plane yukking it up no matter what happened at the presser earlier.
