Keeping it cool at Obama's news conference

Barack Obama showed there's more than one way to play it cool.

With temperatures forecast for the mid-80s, the president's planned Rose Garden news conference Tuesday was quickly shifted indoors.

Reporters instead crowded into the White House briefing room for the hourlong news conference at midday.

Aides said the switch was designed to help reporters avoid the discomfort of several hours in the heat and sun.

One other beneficiary: the president who once famously declared, "I don't sweat."
