will obama

Why should Obama bring McCain into his cabinet? Did Bush bring in Gore or Kerry? Did Dems even ask them to? I dont get why the GOP all of a sudden thinks they are owed to be reached out in ways they never would consider.
The GOP needs McCain in the Senate anyways. If O were to reach across the aisle it would be to Lugar & he said no already.
I don't think that would be such a good idead given McCain's voting record on vetrans benefits.

World leaders dine in style as they discuss financial crisis

Shafer Cabernet ?Hillside Select? 2003 can go for as much as $500 a bottle.
(CNN) ? The global economy may be undergoing a significant downturn, but the White House's dinner budget still appears flush with cash.
After all, world leaders who are in town to discuss the economic crisis are set to dine in style Friday night while sipping wine listed at nearly $500 a bottle.
According to the White House, tonight's dinner to kick off the G-20 summit includes such dishes as "Fruitwood-smoked Quail," "Thyme-roasted Rack of Lamb," and "Tomato, Fennel and Eggplant Fondue Chanterelle Jus."
To wash it all down, world leaders will be served Shafer Cabernet ?Hillside Select? 2003, a wine that sells at $499 on Wine.com.
The exceedingly pricey wine may seem a bit peculiar given leaders are in Washington to discuss a possible world financial meltdown, but Sally McDonough, a spokeswoman for Laura Bush, said it "was the most appropriate wine that we had in the White House wine cellar for such a gathering.
McDonough also said the White House purchased the wine at a "significantly lower price" than what it is listed at.
"Of course the White House gets its wine at wholesale prices," she said. "Given the intimate size of the group, it was an appropriate time for The White House to use this stock."
The leaders of the U.K., France, Russia, China, India, Brazil, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Turkey and 11 developing economies have all come to Washington at the behest of President Bush in an effort to express confidence in the fundamental underpinnings of the world's economy.
