1. I love how throughout each picture... |

Obama stayed cool and focused while everyone around him was full of nerves.

the latest Time or Newsweek come out. I will look this weekend.
Who is the older lady sitting on the couch next to him that put her hand on his shoulder? Is that Michelle's Mom?

I need to know who is with him in the second photo? I don't recognize either of the women or the man. Obviously a very serious conversation. http://flickr.com/photos/barackobamadotcom/sets/72157608716313371/show/

McCain.
Also, great photos. You always seem to have had great photographers. I remember as early as the sixties, probably the fifties, some of your magazines used to show photographs of food, various dishes, always in high definition. It seem to me that our magazines in the UK have only begun recently to do the same, and even then maybe not as clear and appetizing-looking!

Some guy on Campbell Brown was on saying he thought the photos were fishy... assumed that since he saw no wine or other drinks that they mustve had someone photoshop them out! That's quite a leap of logic. I didnt hear all of what this guy said ( not sure I want to). Did anyone else??

My favorite one is Obama and Joe face to face, shaking hands after they won. The second one was is were he is watching CNN's analysis of his speech on t.v. I often wonder if he paid attention to what the pundits say. Now I know. Third one is when Obama is watching McCain's consession speech where he has his hands in prayer. Thank you so much for finding these and sharing them. You made my night!

I am a newbie here so I had to pop them into a couple other threads until I can start my own. (grrr)I'm glad to see they got out on their own greatest thread, they are so terrific. :applause:
I love the one where Barack is watching McCains concession.
