Huh, Andrew Sullivan at The Daily Dish, one of the Atlantic Monthly‘s blogs, has posted this video of Barack Obama first hearing the Libby news, while giving a speech in New Hampshire. (The video is after the jump).

This is the same connection Obama would go on to use in a speech he has given in a variety of venues, which I mentioned in an earlier post.
