NBC Chicago is reporting on the rash of Craigslist ads offering more than just money for tickets to the Obama rally in Grant Park.
Clearly Obama is arousing more than just political passion from these supporters. Is this a healthy trend for American democracy? Is a presidential candidate worth whoring oneself for? Whether or not one approves, one thing is certain: the sexualizing of Obama began early in this process.
Exhibit A: The Original Obama Girl
WARNING: THIS MATERIAL IS ADULT ... BUT SO IS VOTING FOR PRESIDENT.
And now ... the stunning conclusion...
Mo Rocca has appeared on a bunch of shows, including 'The Daily Show,' 'I Love the 80s,'...

1. The question-Is Obama sexy?
The answer-Maybe to Moe.
Ed W at 8:34PM on Mar 2nd 2008
2. Personally, I prefer a man with experience, who can deliver and get the job done.
So my answer is no.

I believe the original question was which candidate would you go on a date with?
Let’s see. John McCain? I don’t think I could put up with that faux “Empire Today”
Voice. Besides, I’d want to see “No Country for Old Men” which he might misinterpret
due to his loss of hearing.
Then too, I am a Democrat, so it would have to be between Obama and Hillary.
Now, I prefer a clean cut, but I guess that could apply to either one.
I’d originally lean to Obama, but I just found out that Hillary is endorsed by Cher and
Madonna. Would they get to come along too? That would be like a girls’ night out—
on STEROIDS!
So then I wonder, would Obama just talk through the whole movie: “I hope they put extra butter on the popcorn, I hope a tall person doesn’t sit in front of us, I hope this happens in the next scene, etc.”
Would Hillary uncork that corrosive laugh at inappropriate times?
Oh, what a dilemma. I think I’ll just wait for Will Hines to go back on the market.

7. Why are all of the dates wrong?

9. Aw Mo,
Strados: Maybe we are starring in a Liberty Mutual

10. You have focused so much attention on Obama, how about a little "laughter" at Hillary? Why is Hillary's campaign doomed to fail? The bottom-line argument is "Let's Do The Time Warp Again!" She believes President Bush was so bad that qualifies the Clintons again. The man dropped trow in the White House. The man celebrated perjury by smoking a special cigar. The man throws porn pizza parties in the Lincoln Bedroom. He did this while he was President. He'd be the full time party planner if she was in Office. Living in a "Time Warp" isn't change. It could be very funny and the final nail in the Clinton campaign coffin. Rocky Horror is a message that sells. How's that for summarizing her experience. Look Mom, no tears. Did I "Toucha, toucha, toucha ya?"

11. Ok Mo, let's do the time warp again!
Well, since I can't find my original post on this subject I will attempt to recreate it... it went something like this:
"How can we sit here goading over campaign erotica while poor little blind baby pandas are struggling to climb stairs."

12. FINN,
You bring up a good point.
I don't see my original post either.
Considering Morrione's parsimonious benefits package
for field reporters, (three days vacation, two sick days per year) I can't imagine I took this day off either.
And they never would have let both of us have the same day off--so, what did I say to this?
Oh, I think it was "What Bra?"

P.S. - You know Giza, posting on Mo Rocca 180 is a lot like doing charity work... the reward is the work itself!

14. Aw Mo,
Don't buy it for a dollar Doug.
Finn is just sucking up to you to get an extra day off this year.
Now, about the holiday pay...
And FINN: a little solidarity goes a long way.
They're foreclosing on Neverland you know.
Cecil, thanks for the Rocky Horror tip.
