President Obama held his 8th news conference today to talk about the economy, announcing the replacement for Christina Romer as head of the President's council of economic advisors with Austan Goolsbee.

The questions asked after the President's brief opening remarks were wide ranging and quite challenging for the most part.  I think it's well worth a watch even if its a relatively long event, especially if you're a voter.  Congratulations to the media for keeping the questions to a minimum over the book burning nonsense.
