President-elect Barack Obama is taking some time off in Hawaii, but two lingering controversies could force Obama to end his vacation earlier than expected.

The soon to be president is under fire after choosing Reverend Rick Warren to deliver the inauguration invocation.

On top of that, there's the controversy involving Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich.

Sources say Obama will release an internal report as early as today, detailing the contact between Mr. Obama's team and the governor's office.

Blagojevich is facing federal charges for allegedly plotting to swap Obama's open Senate seat for cash or a job.

Meanwhile, the Obama transition team is focusing on the middle class.

Vice President-elect Joe Biden will chair a task force to evaluate how polices may effect middle class families.
