Jon Stewart last night said President Barack Obama’s decision to leave former President Bill Clinton alone in the White House Briefing Room last week exudes “the kind of cool confidence that borders on delusional.”
“You’re going to leave that guy, the Michael Jordan of press briefings, in charge, while you go to a Christmas party?” Stewart asked.
It took no time for Clinton to get back in the groove at the podium, gesturing, leaning and taking questions with ease. “The guy’s got moves we haven’t even seen before,” Stewart said. “It’s a virtuoso performance! Obama, what are you thinking?”

“Barack Obama, I’m not saying you don’t have Jedi potential,” Stewart said. “But maybe you want to wait until term two before you let Obi-Wan back out in front of the press corps.”
