I'll score this as another Bush mistake. Pretty petty of you ask me.
Sally McDonough, first lady Laura Bush's press secretary, declined to comment on the transition conversations, but said the Blair House would be available on January 15, the traditional date it becomes available for new presidents and their families. Obama's two daughters — 10-year-old Malia and 7-year-old Sasha — are planning to attend Sidwell Friends School. Classes start more than a week before the incoming first family could stay at Blair House. A second Obama aide said the family remains optimistic the transition from Chicago to Washington would be smooth, regardless of living location. Sidwell is a private Quaker school with a campus in northwest Washington for grades 5-12 and another in suburban Bethesda, Md., for kindergarten through fourth grade. Malia is in fifth grade and Sasha is in second grade. Al Gore III, the son of former Vice President Al Gore, attended Sidwell. Vice President-elect Joe Biden's grandchildren also attend the school. ___ Associated Press writer Ben Feller contributed to this report from Washington.

I'm sure there are plenty of places the Obamas can stay temporarily and get their daughters in the school on time. Do we know what the "previously scheduled events" are or what guests are already planning to stay there? I'd say it's petty of the Obamas to try and move in before it's time.

If the place is booked, the place is booked.
If it were empty and they were just being difficult, that would be a different story. No reason to make a mountain out of a mole hole..

"The aide, who was not authorized to speak about Obama family matters, spoke on the condition of anonymity." If Obama actually thought this was a big deal, I'm sure he would have said something publicly. In the past he has had no issue with publicly criticizing President Bush.
