Campaign Fatigue Grips Dems

Barack Obama likes to joke that since his campaign started, "babies have been born and are now walking and talking," but he's hardly exaggerating. The last 15 months have seen staffers from both his and Hillary Clinton's camps get married, become parents, and grow increasingly exhausted as the campaign grinds on. The Washington Post takes a closer look at campaign fatigue.

Both Clinton and Obama are no strangers to 20-hour workdays, and neither are their campaigners. Obama's press secretary, who got married last July, thinks his new wife has been as much a trooper as anyone on staff: "When you sign up to marry a guy, you don't expect that you're not going to see him for more than a year."
