The Maverick Tribe

Wincing their way through Pennsylvania, the press corps is forced to dutifully record Barack Obama's carefully orchestrated attempts to relate to Joe Sixpack.  See Barack pretend to like Rolling Rock.  See Barack in bowling shoes.  See Barack throw a gutterball.  Can we go home now?

This is so dumb.  I hate this aspect of presidential politics.  Guess what, Lunchpail Larry?  Barack Obama is not just like you.  He's a black guy who lives in Chicago and knows how to shoot hoops, but can't bowl for shit.  And you know what?  You can still vote for him anyway.

If Barack comes to San Francisco, should I expect him to suck another guy off for the cameras?  Just asking...
