Newsweek is reporting that Senator Barack Obama may be seriously looking at a 2008 Presidential bid:

Ask Washington insiders about Sen. Barack Obama’s presidential hopes, and you’ll get a pat response: great idea, a cycle or three from now–or maybe this time as veep. But they need to get out more. I’ve talked to Democrats in 10 cities in the last four months and found Obama fever throughout the Democratic Party. Besides an online Al Gore boomlet, no one else raises a reaction anything like it. More impressively, there’s now a distinct possibility that Obama may seize the moment and run in ’08.
