Really, is Obama naive?

So yesterday I see the clip showing Obama answering one of McCain's stupidities directly. Today I see this (via).

I don't begrudge Obama R&R, but can't he and the Democratic Party figure out a way for him to get his rest without setting himself up for an article such as this? Good grief!

Fortified by daily workouts at the gym, he looks fit. But his face seemed drawn as he addressed a town hall meeting here Wednesday, the toll of a week spent parrying Republican rival John McCain's charge that his antidote to the energy crisis is tire inflation.

Ever thought of pacing yourself, Senator, and getting some good managers?

Then there's this:

Arrangements are being made to accommodate reporters (at a cost of $11,500 each for the week), but the campaign is putting out word there probably will be no real news.

Right, the news is going to stop because Obama is on vacation? You could always throw a barbecue. The press just luv them some barbecue.
