Series XIV: Allies Kept-A+

At the top of the list are Ted and Caroline.

I was thrilled to see Ted get the National Service Bill signed at the White House.

I was also thrilled to hear that Obama had tried to get Caroline an Ambassadorship to the Vatican; they turned her down but at least Obama tried.

I still want to see him get Caroline a big time job in his Administration; and I want to see Obama give the whole Kennedy Family a State Dinner at the White House and honor their Service; and finally I want to see more Kennedy people in the White House and less Clinton people:

I was happy to see him joking around with Caroline:

To mark the President's First 100 Days, the White House released a ton of behind the scenes photos taken by Pete Souza. Some of the photos have already been seen, but there is a huge amount that show the President goofing around, acting affectionate with his wife and children and holding late night meetings with aides. Buried in the amazing collection is a photo imbued with White House history. It shows President Obama playing in the Oval Office with Caroline Kennedy. Is the President pretending to be John Jr. when he played in his father's desk? Is he trying to figure out how John got into the desk? Check out the photos to see for yourself. Below the photos is the entire slideshow from the White House.


Next up:


Claire McCaskill-She was at Obama's 100 days townhall.


Then there is:


Amy Klobuchar-she represented Obama well on MSNBC on their 100 Days Show.


Special category:


Debbie Wasserman-Schultz.


An amazing woman-Was a staunch Hilary supporter-could see the extreme disappointment, sadness and hurt on her face when Hillary lost-and then she was battling illness and didn't tell anyone-and on top of that she had to be an advocate for Obama; she had to transition to Obama in public while sad and ill. And she did it-became a strong advocate for Obama.

Great gutsy trooper she is. Give that woman a souvenir Green Beret!!!

There are more, but they stand out.
