Ambinder: Obama gives half-smirk when asked how does Obama/Biden sound
Pool press shouts to Obama in Chicago: "how does Obama-Biden" sound? Obama gives half-smirtk. 40 minutes ago

What does this mean???? Any guesses? Would you smirk if they were right if it was you or would you smirk if they wrong? Any guesses or analysis as to what this half-smirk means?

1. It means that we've all gone insane
Analyzing half-facial expressions. But it's a good kind of insane, no? ;)

2. Was it a half-smirk or a 2/3-smirk? Or a 1/3-smirk?
Did he smirk with the left side of his mouth or the right? And did he wink at the same time?

All of these are extremely important signs by which we can determine who was chosen.

Or else we can just chill and wait until tomorrow, like sane people.

14. I'll probably wish I hadn't asked, but what IS that picture?
I've been seeing it all night and my curiosity has finally gotten the best of me.

5. A half-smirk is twice as ambiguous as a full-smirk...
so there's no telling

6. A half smile
would be more appropriate. Barack Obama doesn't do smirks.

11. Team Obama has proven one thing
Compared to Obama and his advisors, Rove and company were rank amateurs.
