Barack Obama Is All About the Phillies

Et tu, Barack?

Apparently the state of Pennsylvania has become very important in the campaigns of both Barack Obama and John McCain as they both run for President. Last week Sarah Palin was in Philadelphia to drop the puck at the Flyers home opener, and now this week Barack is saying that he's rooting for the Phillies to win the World Series.

As a White Sox fan, I'm offended by this. I may have to reconsider my vote, though Barack did say that he's still a White Sox fan, and is only rooting for Philadelphia because

~~he needs the votes~~

his campaign manager, David Plouffe, "is a huge Phillies fan."

Still, it hurts, Barack. It hurts.
