Nick Watt has had weeklong fun covering G20 for ABC. Tuesday he teased bankers for their dress code; Wednesday he probed Bakewell tarts with the Naked Chef; now he uses an extended boarding school metaphor for the political leaders assembled in London. Taking the class photo is like herding cats…Queen Elizabeth played head teacher…Lula is most popular…Silvio Berlusconi is class clown…and the new kid Barack Obama leaves "the other kids star struck." CBS anchor Katie Couric, too, looked at the body language of the assembled multitude of powerhouses and concluded that "there was plenty of global warming to go round." She meant bonhomie not hot air, I think.
