Barack Obama: a man for all seasons.
"Wait your turn Hillary, you've already sunk Bill's balls. This is my time to shine."
After the embarrassing mess involving Rev. Wright, Barack Obama has decided to play it safe and spend his sunday mornings at the local pub instead of going to church.
Not exactly Fast Eddie Felsen, but Obama could hold his own with a younger Paul Newman any day!
You see..... I can win this thing sitting down, with one hand behind my back.
"You’re good, Hillary. But as long as I’m around, you’ll always be second best! " (credits to Cinncinatti Kid)
After trying all other options, Howard Dean has decided that the most fair way to decide the democratic nominee is over a simple game of 8 ball.
"Two out of three? Your on! Barack them up!"
I have to revise this one**** HAHA
The only pocket in West Virginia he can score. If it wasn't all white it might be a fair shot!
Ok Hill, if I make this shot you drop out of the race, if I miss, I promise to stop calling you at 3am.
She might win West Virgina...But I'll take Hillary and day in 8 ball.
Even under pressure, Obama never breaks a sweat!
Anybody can roll a BIG clunky ball down a lane. This takes more finesse!
"You're NEVER going to sneak up on me again . . . by invitation ONLY!"
You'd bet me the entire $30.00 that you'll save on the federal gas tax this summer if I make this shot? No, no, I wouldn't hustle you like that. You could play a few more games with that money, just like Hillary!
A darn good stress-buster on the campaign trail!
Sometimes, you've got to carry a very big stick!
"If only putting Hilary away was this easy..."
East Brunswick, NJ
Obama: Your turn Hillary, your cue for 8 pocket, and I bet I will win my nominee next June against you!

The only game worth playing in Washington!
I hope Michelle doesn't see this. She taught me this shot.
Now Hillary I know your use to breakin the balls but Bill not playin this time.
Its not like I'm going to be on the cover of GQ...right?
Ok let me show ya how to do it.....

Before becoming President and emptying pockets, Obama decides to fill some.
And you probably thought that Hillary was a Rod Ham.
Obama: "For Hillary Clinton to win this nomination, she'll need a lot of balls. I'll start by (kitchen) sinking this one in now for her."
Does this pose make my campaign look too lax?
-Morgan (Des Moines, IA)
Breaking news on AC 360: Hillary breaks Barack's balls in West Virginia primary.
After all the cheap shots, Obama gets in a free one.
The DNC come up with a novel way of settling the race...
Obama: "For Hillary to win this race, she's going to need a lot of balls. I'll -(kitchen) sink some for her now".
"since this is how I paid off my student loans I figure I can use this plan to pay down our trade deficit with china... one pool game at a time."
The cue ball represents Hillery Clinton and each ball it nudges into a pocket represents what she is accomplishing. Pitching women is better, how? 1. Pitting race against race; 2.Going back on her given word; 3. Not satisified with having made history already by being able to run for the nomination; 4. Lieing about wanting a Unified America by pitting races against each other; 5. not speaking out against the many threats issued by her many self centered followers all the while driving a wedge between her own party; With the 8 ball being the total distruction of th Democrats chances for change at Hillery Clinton's own hands.
Hillary to win the nomination? She'll need snookers.
Hillary isn't the only ball breaker
ok. So now we know how he's been rasing all the campain funds... 🙂
And to top everything else...I'm also a closet pool shark! Suckers!!!!!
Someone make sure that Hillary isnt putting delegates in her side pocket behind my back.
How many times do I have to put Hillary behind the eight ball?
Hillary for VP? Tell her to get to the end of the 'cue'.
now i know why Hillary always wears a pants suit
considering the fact that our current president nearly choked to death on a pretzel, making this trick shot will bring honor back to the presidency
The only pocket in West Virginia he can get in. If only it weren't all white!
nothing says "common man" like making an amazing trick shot.
Pool Hall Rules...Shooting pool, while sporting a tie, is prohibited on premises.

Thinking he is on the home stretch, Obama takes some time to play VOTER Pool.
"You just watch me bypass the yellow solid and the red stripe as I shoot for victory. He shoots...SCRATCH."
Yellow Solid Ball = Florida
Red Stripe Ball = Michigan
Voter suppression of FL and MI.......shameful.

Let's see now – – – if the white ball should knock the black ball into a hole, then game over – – – hmmmm – – – better play this one safe.
Now that's connecting with everyday People!!!
"I can't wait to campaign in Oregon – they tell me I'll be spending most of my time sawing logs – I could sure use the nap time."
