NEW YORK - Given all that's at stake in the 2008 presidential race, it's a bit terrifying to realize that by one measure, a major role is being played by an aspiring model/actress/fashion designer/ former beauty pageant contestant named Amber. That's Amber Lee Ettinger, aka Obama Girl, whose racy Web video I Got A Crush On Obama has gotten well over 2 million hits in the three weeks it's been online, making it one of the most-watched political videos this season.

I was ready to give this Paleolithic no-hoper credit for at least having a modern, tech-sawy site: It's well-stocked with YouTube dips, Facebook links, scrolling blog-post thingamabobs and assorted Web 2.0 whatnottery. Then I noticed a letter from a constituent given pride of place on [TOM TANCREDO]'s homepage in the form of a PDF file. It seems this woman was at Wal-Mart one day, "looking for toddler crew socks."

Talking smack isn't boosting his low popularity though, even among his own erstwhile supporters. During his State of the Union address, Mr. Obama attacked "lobbyists [who] game the system." When Diane Sawyer of ABC News asked him about shady deals used to try to get government health care passed, he threw the Democrat-run Congress under the bus: "Let's hold on a second, Diane. . . . I didn't make a bunch of deals. Right, there is a legislative process that is taking place in Congress and I am happy to own up to the fact that I have not changed Congress and how it operates the way I would have liked.
