Asked today whether President Obama has begun contemplating his reelection, White House press secretary Robert Gibbs told reporters, “If he has, he hasn’t told me.” Yeah, we’re sure that’s how it is. Meanwhile, not staying on message as is his wont is Vice-President Joe Biden, who told the New York Times this week that Obama has already asked him to stay on as his running mate and has said things like, “When we go into this second term, Joe’s going to have to do blah blah blah.” [Caucus/NYT]
