Wisc. Recall update: Barack Obama stands with Tom Barrett ... just not anywhere near him

Barack Obama’s set to pull off a pretty neat trick: standing by wannabe Wisconsin governor Tom Barrett while simultaneously refusing to touch him with a ten-foot pole.

Haha! RT @BarackObama: It's Election Day in Wisconsin tomorrow, and I'm standing by Tom Barrett. He'd make an outstanding governor. -bo

*sniff* The sentiment is overwhelming! RT @RBPundit: BTW, Obama’s tweet in support of Barrett is actually him. Signed “bo”… not a staffer.
