After Obama evoked memories (bad, of course)of foumer Pres. Ronald Reagan while openly considering Cal. Gov. Schwartzenegger for a Cabinet post I wouldn't put it past him or his advisers to have come up with this stunt themselves!

I'm sure Hillary will claim her people has nothing to so with that....

Just like they weren't trying to supress votes in Nevada by filinf suit to prevent casino workers from particpating.
