Obama was sniffling yesterday in New Mexico, and seems to have gotten a cold in, of all places, Hawaii.

From today’s pool report:

Obama is still sick. He looks and sounds much worse than yesterday. He walked in with a hankie or tissue in hand but put it away to shake hands of each tech person helping with satellite interview.

Your pooler, after being treated with handshake, asked if he was feeling better and he said, "Not really."

Obama told me it’s "a minor head cold" and repeated his line from Albuquerque yesterday: "It’s what happens when you hang around children."

He added that he usually gets "like one cold a year."
