Slog - Comments on Obamarotica! http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/07/obamarotica In this week's Stranger, the media's love affair with Barack gets explicit. Episode 1: Chicago at Night The sleek black limo picked me up at the corner of Randolph and Halsted. I climbed inside to find my sleek black man lying there wearing nothing but a grin and a copy of the Sun Times. “This is on the D.L., right?” said Barry in his velvet baritone, a wry smile on his face.

Fuck, liberals doing all they can do to get their asses kicked in elections since 1968. (And no Carter and Clinton were not liberals)

10,000 doctoral thesises (thesi?) will be written about this campaign and the last 8 yrs

Aside from that picture making me want to wash my eyes with lye and an SOS pad, I'm pretty sure this won't do much to advance his cause. It will sure help McCain's though...

I mean, clearly, with her convictions she's gotta be threatening resignation, right? Standing up for the old beliefs, yeah? Really sticking to her guns on this one, huh?

This creeps me out, and I can't help but think that anyone not already firmly in Obama's camp would be really turned off by it.

otherwise, you're helping as much as ludacris.

Really, you guys think that Obama erotica in an alternative weekly will change people's minds about voting for him? So Letterman really screwed the pooch with his latest top ten list and the reference to an affair with Barbara Walters and trolling for chicks with John Edwards?

Oh well. Could have been worse. For example, if Hillary HAD won the nomination.

I'm going to go bleach my eyes now.

Some people think that snark and humor is only good if it's directed at old fogey Republicans, but I'm glad The Stranger can transcend bullshit partisan politics to ridicule everyone on a level playing field.
