Reporting from Honolulu—

The Obama family settled into their Hawaiian vacation this weekend, with the president making a late arrival thanks to the kerfuffle back in Washington over the payroll tax cut renewal.

President Obama spent part of Christmas Eve playing golf with old friends from the islands and White House staff, while the first lady spoke with children who had called into NORAD’s special Santa-tracking phone line.

The White House released a transcript of the conversations, which show a first lady in classic Christmas story-telling mode.

"Can you tell me where Santa is?" a girl named Summer asked.

The first lady, with access to NORAD's state-of-the-art surveillance data, replied that Santa at that very moment was "over Finland."

Time for another prop.  I would not be surprised that come March we are told the First Family is expecting.  I am sure that would garner more of the idiot vote.  He will need every one he can get and every 2nd and 3rd vote from the truly loyal.

I agree with you. I am surprised it hasn't happened yet. I think in 2 months.
