Politico's Eamon Javers states the almost-obvious in this piece, Politics of personal perfection...

Let's be honest: Barack Obama is better than you are.

He's a better father - taking breaks from running the world to cheer on his daughters at soccer and basketball games.

He's a better husband - zipping his wife off for dinner in New York and Paris.

He's got a better diet - nibbling on vegetables from his homegrown garden to keep his love handles in check.

And he's got a terrific jump shot.

You? Not so much.

I think the self esteem of everyone in DC took a little bit of a hit today...
