Eat Crap, Win Voters' Hearts and Minds?

In between mel0dramatic reports on lame bowling skills and memories of shooting ducks as a wee lass and all the flotsam and jetsam of American political discourse, I have noted disparagement of Senator Obama's campaign eating style. Apparently he doesn't finish all his waffles!  He shies away from fat-laden nightmares like Philly cheesesteaks ( I may be making this one up) and so on. He's not into multiple brewskies, either.

So the guy is trim, healthy, and against all the odds during this marathon primary season, he wants to stay that way and hold off the carbs. What a nutcase!  What a crappy exemplar of all that is American!

Please, superdelegates, end the agony soon so that Barry O' can take a break to revisit farmers markets and Senator Clinton can hole up in her Georgetown home tossing back whatever she damn pleases.

This tidbit from the NYT a few days back may amuse....

ps  Not getting into the use of "waffle" as a verb...

Clinton is going to take this as far as possible, I fear. She has no chance, but she's so power hungry... She looks like hell these days, too.

If America can get out of middle school mind-set and into adult mode, Obama will make it, I trust. Apparently Hillary relies on chiles to keep her going!

I was wondering, during the coffee/orange juice controversy (the fact that that even became a controversy says something--something truly horrible--about our media) if perhaps Obama shares the same affliction and avoidance of caffeine that I do? Have you ever seen him drink coffee?

OMG no! Maybe he's a tisane elitist...
