What Did You Do For Lunch?

If you're certain White House reporters, the answer could be lunch with President Obama...

Politico reports that CNN's David Gergen, WaPo's Chris Cillizza, Newsweek's Jon Meacham and Howard Fineman, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution's Cynthia Tucker, Politico's Mike Allen, NPR/Fox's Mara Liasson, TPM's Josh Marshall and NYT's David Brooks, Andy Rosenthal, and Gail Collins joined the President, David Axelrod, Anita Dunn, Bill Burton and Robert Gibbs for an off-the-record lunch today.

Lunch apparently lasted two hours and green salad, halibut and pear tart were served.

Friends and Colleagues Fete Embeds' Palin Book

Former campaign embeds Scott Conroy and Shushannah Walshe's book on Sarah Palin is out this week, and friends and colleagues feted the CBS reporter and former Fox reporter at last night's DC book signing and party.

Conroy and Walshe signed books and read an excerpt to a crowd at Borders downtown. They also took about 30 minutes of questions from the audience, which will air on C-SPAN's Book TV this weekend.

Earlier yesterday, Conroy visited his old stomping ground at Georgetown University. He had planned to do a book signing, but the campus book store was not selling his book (yet)-- a funny story he shared over drinks last night's book party at Agraria.

Steve Chaggaris, Rob Hendin, Jane Chick, Michelle Levi and Fernando Suarez were there from CBS. Sasha Issenberg, Mike Memoli, Jonathan Martin, Mike Madden, Erin McPike and Peter Hamby were also around to celebrate at Agraria in Georgetown. Attorney Ben Ginsburg, who was national counsel to the Bush-Cheney and Romney campaigns, also attended.

"Sarah From Alaska: The Sudden Rise and Brutal Education of a New Conservative Superstar" is published by Peter Osnos' PublicAffairs. And Chaggy, McPike and Hamby all got shout-outs in the book's acknowledgments after the jump.

Friends,

After a terrific year at The Hill, today will be my last in the newsroom. I've taken a position at the National Journal Group, where I'll be editing and managing Hotline OnCall, a blog backed up by a strong group of emerging writers.

Thanks for all your help and support during the past year. My new email address XXX is above, and my cell number will remain the same. After a brief respite to recharge my batteries, I'll be back on the job Monday, Nov. 16.

Please feel free to contact me at my new address, and please add the new address to your press lists, if you have them. I'll look forward to speaking with you shortly.

Best wishes,

Reid
