Obama *is* Bartlet.

[tzikeh]

It just keeps happening.

In the West Wing, Mr. Obama is a bit of a wanderer. When Mr. Bush wanted to see a member of his staff, the aide was summoned to the Oval Office. But Mr. Obama tends to roam the halls; one day last week, he turned up in the office of his press secretary, Robert Gibbs, who was in the unfortunate position of having his feet up on the desk when the boss walked in.

“Wow, Gibbs,” the press secretary recalls the president saying. “Just got here and you already have your feet up.” Mr. Gibbs scrambled to stand up, surprising Mr. Obama, who is not yet accustomed to having people rise when he enters a room.

In other news, the first official event Veep Biden is hosting at his new home (United States Naval Observatory) is a Superbowl party. Both he and President Obama are rooting for the Steelers.

"Other than the Bears," [Obama] added, "the Steelers are probably the team that's closest to my heart."

Mr Biden added, "We agree on that one too, boss!"

(It probably doesn't hurt that the other team is from McCain's home state of Arizona.)

I am fangirling the President and his staff. It's Bizarro World.

AHAHAHAHHA!

I fully expect Rahm to do the "Mister President, there's something on your tie" and then flinging his finger up in Obama's face.

Who would have thought, *ever*, that reality might just surpass fiction?

It's both an administration and a fandom!

THEY'RE SO FANGIRLABLE. With Axe and his cookie!love and Rahm being a walking, breathing Sorkin-meets-the-Godfather type, and Joey B and his adorkable smile, and the President and the First Lady being BEYOND CUTE.

FOUR YEARS OF THIS!
