SEOUL (Reuters) - President Barack Obama was caught on camera on Monday assuring outgoing Russian President Dmitry Medvedev that he will have "more flexibility" to deal with contentious issues like missile defense after the U.S. presidential election.
Obama, during talks in Seoul, urged Moscow to give him "space" until after the November ballot, and Medvedev said he would relay the message to incoming Russian president Vladimir Putin.

"This is my last election ... After my election I have more flexibility," Obama said, expressing confidence that he would win a second term. [ed: rigged? by marginal vote fakery? or just by psy ops / rigged events?]
"I will transmit this information to Vladimir," said Medvedev, Putin's protégé and long considered number two in Moscow's power structure.
Why "transmit to Vladimir"? Only if it helps Russia. In code, Obama 1. knew Romney defeat was arranged, 2. promised concessions to Putin.
