I finished the "Powerful Women in Washington" trifecta today. Last Wednesday I filmed Condoleezza Rice at the State Department. She looked extremely tired. I think she had just stepped off the plane from the Middle East. Thursday I did a press conference with Nancy Pelosi at Congress. She reminded me a lot of my mother and when she cheered her hometown of Baltimore, I realized why. Today I arrived at GW for a 6:30 pre-set to film Hillary Clinton's speech about Iraq. It was a lot different than seeing an Obama event. She spoke about the specifics of her plan (a bit wonkishly) and did very little glad-handing. Obama speaks in generalities and walks slowly around the room greeting everyone both before and after he speaks.

I am amazed at the energy and drive of both Clinton and Obama. They have been traveling, making speeches, debating and raising money for months. I'm surprised they haven't dropped out of the race from pure exhaustion.
