Rahm Emanuel rounded out the Hundred Days hoopla. The White House Chief of Staff granted interviews to all three network anchors. NBC's Brian Williams and ABC's Charles Gibson filed their q-&-a's by remote with Williams airing just a single soundbite and Gibson a couple of exchanges. CBS sent Katie Couric to sit down with Emanuel in person to ask about the blame game and opinion poll popularity and the Republican Party and Barack Obama's mistakes and accomplishments. "Why do you think the President is more popular than any of his policies?" "Because he is a good guy."
Considering he is only that Hundred Days on the job, Emanuel certainly got carried away as he compared his boss to Franklin Roosevelt, Ronald Reagan, John F Kennedy and Thomas Jefferson for ABC's Gibson, all "successful Presidents and transformative Presidents…They followed failed Presidents…They were good communicators and they came in at a point of crisis in the country."
