Hmmm…we’re not sure whether this will help or damage the image of an American presidential candidate, but Donatella Versace has dedicated her Spring-Summer 2009 collection to Democratic contender Barack Obama.
The Italian designer says the clothes are suited for “a relaxed man who doesn’t need to flex muscles to show he has power.”
Donatella also has a few words of advice for Obama: “I would get rid of the tie and jazz up the shirt,” she says.
NOW GET OUT!!!

Chatting with Jimmy Kimmel via satellite during the late night prince’s Game Night show, Barack Obama said he would consider replacing the current White House bowling alley with a basketball court. Then he closed the interview with a “fist bump” via satellite.
During the interivew, the Los Angeles Lakers were down three games to one against the Boston Celtics, a position no NBA team has come back from to win the finals. The situation prompted Jimmy to ask Barack: “Are you at all worried Senator that if the Lakers do come back that it would encourage Hillary Clinton to come back too?” After flashing his trademark toothy smile, Barack assured Jimmy that no Clinton comeback would be in the works.
Phew!!!!

Barack Obama has officially clinched the Democratic presidential nomination.
The freshman Illinois senator now faces Republican Sen. John McCain in the race to become the 44th U.S. president.
In a statement prepared for delivery at a rally in St. Paul today, Barack said: “Tonight we mark the end of one historic journey with the beginning of another — a journey that will bring a new and better day to America. Tonight I can stand before you and say that I will be the Democratic nominee for president of the United States.”
Meanwhile, Hillary Clinton praised her rival warmly in an appearance before supporters in New York.
While she failed to offer a concession of any sort, she said she would spend the next few days determining “how to move forward with the best interests of our country and our party guiding my way.”
Congratulations, Senator Obama!!!

Saturday Night Live may have stuggled to figure out who should play Barack Obama in skits, but the Democratic frontrunner knows exactly who he thinks could play him in a movie.
“Will Smith and I have talked about this, because he has the ears,” Obama tells Entertainment Tonight. “He’s better looking than me, but we both have those.”
Perfect casting!!!

This is just desperate.
With only days to go until the Texas and Ohio primaries, Hillary Clinton cronies have circulated a photo of what they call a “dressed” Barack Obama.
The snap shows the Democrat FRONTRUNNER dressed as a Somali Elder, during his visit to a a rural area in northeastern Kenya.
Says one foolhardy staffer: “Wouldn’t we be seeing this on the cover of every magazine if it were HRC?”
Our thoughts?

The clip incorporates footage of Barack speaking on the campaign trail, with his words advocating change set to music and recited by the likes of Scarlett Johansson, will.i.am, John Legend, Kate Walsh, Nicole Scherzinger and even a token Canadian named Esthero.
The chorus, ‘Yes We Can,‘ is repeated throughout.
Yes we can!!!!!!!!

Rudy Giuliani and Hilary Clinton look like bossom buddies on the cover of this month’s Radar magazine, in a mocking send-up of Vanity Fair’s now notorious 2006 Hollywood issue.
The Photoshopped cover shows a lusty Rudy nuzzling a nude Hillary, with an equally nude Barack Obama lounging nearby, seemingly unaware of what’s going on around him.
The magazine promises to “undress” the White House candidates.
Our thoughts on the cover?

Showing off his pearly whites, Sen. Barack Obama makes history as the first politician to appear on the upcoming cover of GQ magazine since Bill Clinton and Al Gore appeared on the men’s magazine cover nearly fifteen years ago.
Looks good, but we won’t be happy until we see our girl Hilary Clinton gracing the cover of Vogue!
