Obama savors easy pace before the storm

Sent from Express News
CHICAGO - Barack Obama appears to be enjoying his last few weeks of pondering the nation's problems without being held accountable for them.

The president-elect teased reporters and New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson, his choice for commerce secretary, during a brief, lighthearted news conference Wednesday. It stood in sharp contrast to Monday's event, where a solemn Obama was flanked by six grim-faced appointees, including Hillary Rodham Clinton, slated to be secretary of state.
