Washington, D.C.: What grade do you give Tony Snow, and is that higher or lower than Scott McClellan? Jim VandeHei: He seems well liked by the WH and reporters. Obviously, he is smoother and sassier than McClellan. He likes to argue with reporters, which the WH likes, and I think reporters like to mix it up and have the freer exchange of thoughts and ideas that Snow encourages. ... [Another chatter:] Even when he "thanked" Helen Thomas for providing Hezbollah's point of view? Jim VandeHei: I was not in the room when Snow made such comments. My guess is reporters had mixed views. Some reporters like Helen's in-your-face commentary, while others think she is sometimes more interested in making statements than getting answers.
