Bush tap dances while waiting for McCain.

Today, President Bush is meeting with Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) for lunch at the White House, where he is expected to endorse his presidential bid. He was so excited for the meeting that, while waiting for McCain to arrive, Bush stood outside on the North Portico and entertained the press corps by tap dancing, doing a goofy walk, winking, and smiling. Watch it:

MSNBC’s Tameron Hall was so distracted by Bush’s antics that she interrupted her guest to say, “I’m sorry, this alert just in. The President was tap dancing. … I don’t think I’ve seen him in a better mood.”

UPDATE: Michael D. Shear of the Washington Post has more on Bush’s dancing.
