The White House, after initially saying that President Obama was too busy with overhauling the health insurance system to commit to going to Copenhagen to push for Chicago's 2016 Olympic bid, now says that he "absolutely" might go.
White House spokesman Robert Gibbs told reporters aboard Mr. Obama's flight to Pittsburgh from New York on Thursday that an advance team has departed the United States for Copenhagen "to preserve the option for the President to visit Copenhagen and lend his voice to America's bid for the 2016 Olympics." But, he added, no final decisions have been made.
