I think this is about the time (a month before the election) many candidates in the past would start to put transition teams in place....and it doesnt take anything away from the day-to-day campaigning.
I dont see why it is a show at all. We're talking about installing a new government and something like 7,000 political appointments to be made as well as setting policy goals and objectives for the numerous agencies in the executive branch.
For me, its another sign that Obama is demonstrating effective leadership.
