Politico's White House Correspondent Gushes Over Obama's Blood Pressure: It's 'Superhuman'

You would think that with all the scrutiny Politico is getting as a result of its hit piece on Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain, the employees might want to hide their love for Barack Obama for the time being.

Not White House correspondent Glenn Thrush who actually tweeted to his followers Monday evening about the President's "superhuman" blood pressure:

Actually, Dr. Thrush, normal blood pressure ranges from 110/70 to 120/80 placing Obama fairly close to that.

Low normal, the range for athletes, is 90/60 to 100/65. That's where mine's been most of my adult life due to how much I exercise.

So, Dr. Thrush, if Obama's "superhuman," what does that make me?
