  • mmccarthy, on 06/03/2008, -4/+41#17 is my favourite
  • thelastwarrior, on 06/04/2008, -4/+27THANK GOD IT'S OVER
  • inactive, on 06/03/2008, -3/+22Didn't know he was such a pool hustler.
  • acmaurer, on 06/03/2008, -3/+21Aww memories - but I think my favorite is how his ability to hurdle is about as great as his ability to bowl...
  • locamama, on 06/03/2008, -3/+19I'm disappointed that the shoulder wipe photo wasn't in there. Or the flipping Hill the bird at the debate.
  • inactive, on 06/04/2008, -0/+16Actually, Paul Newman was my college roommate.
  • locamama, on 06/04/2008, -0/+15Maybe I should have called it shoulder brushing, it was after the last Obama/Hill debate. It was his Jay-Z dirt off your shoulder move.

  • inactive, on 06/03/2008, -1/+15I like fajitas too
  • n1ghtowl, on 06/04/2008, -5/+18Does Hillary know what "it's over" means? Obama went from being almost completely unknown, to beating a candidate that thought she would take the lead from the very start. Obama '08!
  • inactive, on 06/03/2008, -1/+14Obama loves his fajitas.
  • PhillipJFry, on 06/04/2008, -4/+16It's official!

  • inactive, on 06/03/2008, -3/+15Ha. #9 and #11 are quite funny.
  • inactive, on 06/04/2008, -3/+13Like it! Check out (and digg?) his picture explorer http://www.dipity.com/mashups/tickr?submit=1&q=Bar ...
  • inactive, on 06/04/2008, -0/+10Did you get an endless supply of salad dressing?
  • wphj, on 06/04/2008, -0/+9Haha, he's a pretty good basketball player actually...
  • inactive, on 06/03/2008, -1/+9Now THERE'S a thought
  • locamama, on 06/03/2008, -1/+9Maybe you could be Prez?
  • DeePsix501, on 06/04/2008, -5/+12Now that Obama is the Nominee- We've gone from Yes We Can, moving to the future saying Now we Will, and we will look back and say Yes we Did.

    I am happy to be witness to history being made.
  • inactive, on 06/04/2008, -0/+7This guy has nothing on my college roommate. That guy was a pool hustler.
  • solarweasel, on 06/04/2008, -6/+13here comes the parade of anti-obama mud-slingers
  • MnemonicDevice, on 06/04/2008, -0/+7THIS IS OBAAAMAAAA!
  • liquisoft, on 06/04/2008, -3/+10Obama seems to be the only candidate in my memory that can make people cry just from his speeches.

    Well, in all fairness, Bush makes people cry from his speeches, but for entirely different reasons.
  • inactive, on 06/04/2008, -0/+7Well, not EXACTLY.
  • inactive, on 06/04/2008, -0/+6Nor Paul Newman.
  • inactive, on 06/04/2008, -0/+6No, that was a really funny moment in the campaign.
  • inactive, on 06/03/2008, -0/+6The shoulder wipe photo? Must have missed that one!
  • inactive, on 06/04/2008, -0/+6It is indeed.
  • RansomHoldiay, on 06/04/2008, -0/+6i like how you're a racist yet you capitalize "black"
  • inactive, on 06/03/2008, -0/+6Now, I wonder if we'll ever get a president who has THAT hair.
  • inactive, on 06/03/2008, -0/+6Gotta love the Secret Service.
  • RansomHoldiay, on 06/04/2008, -7/+13today is a good day for America.
  • inactive, on 06/04/2008, -0/+5That was a really hot picture explorer.
  • inactive, on 06/04/2008, -0/+5Sure looks that way now, with the speech and all
  • KyleGoetz, on 06/04/2008, -2/+7Read his ***** webpage and welcome to my blocked list. I have no time for lazy idiots. Seriously, if you're on Digg, you presumably know how to use Google. http://www.barackobama.com/issues/
    read and learn
  • inactive, on 06/04/2008, -0/+5Forget that, look at Picture #19! A president who can shoot some stick!
  • inactive, on 06/04/2008, -0/+5That's REALLY cool. I'll think Dipity is my new favorite site.
  • revwolfe, on 06/04/2008, -0/+5Yes, you can.
  • Andyschism, on 06/04/2008, -0/+5I lol'd and dugg accordingly.
  • inactive, on 06/03/2008, -1/+6What'd he end up bowling in that game again?
  • inactive, on 06/04/2008, -0/+5I have no idea how to answer that appropriately. But I know how my ex-roommate might try.
  • inactive, on 06/04/2008, -1/+6McCain isn't the nominee either. He's the presumptive nominee until the convention. Same with Obama.
  • ElectJeff, on 06/04/2008, -7/+12Get a room guys.
  • acmaurer, on 06/04/2008, -0/+4Anyone else notice how Obama's the only one on that side of the plane while there are several people on the other side of the aisle and in back? I guess the man really needs his own space.
  • Leadingshare, on 06/03/2008, -3/+7#11 is great!
  • bill80, on 06/04/2008, -3/+7No. 14 for me. Or the pool shot.
  • MaryCait, on 06/04/2008, -0/+4You're right, that's adorable.
  • danesis, on 06/04/2008, -3/+7He already won the nomination!!
