#2 I'm sure they endorsed him because...he gives them HOPE!
Not because there'll be a payback or anything like that. Unions, especially the Teamsters, are, of course, above all that...

#3 Great, that's settled. But what the KU Student Newspaper wants to know is, "What drinking game would O'bama endorse?"

Quarters - all about change
Chandalier - his house of glass
Taxi Driver - from his 20's party days
Star Wars - for the Obamanauts
Up the River - ode to hillary!
Under the Table - for Chicago politics
