Obama To Romney: 'Good Luck Tonight ... Really'

Before we get deep into the news of the Super Tuesday primaries, here's something from the lighter side of politics.

Toward the end of his news conference at the White House today, President Obama was asked about Republican presidential contender Mitt Romney's charge in today's Washington Post that the Democratic president has been the nation's "most feckless" leader since President Carter.

"Uh, good luck tonight," the president said with a smile and to chuckles from the White House news corps. "Really."
