Obama Generates Still More Hype, May Win Votes of Hardened Racists…?

Word on the street is Obama won the first-ever MySpace primary for the Democratic side, taking 46 percent of MySpace Democrat votes.

Having stolen the love of social networking’s working-class, Bob Garfield — ad commentator-cum-resident sociologist — is willing to wager Obama will win racist redneck votes too, as long as he proves “acceptably black” (a la Halle Berry).

You cannot make this shit up.

Back on earth (or not), Jetpacks compares Obama to the ultra-sexy iPhone. That may be the best analogy we’ve heard all day.

Until Florida tears our hearts out through our throats, we’re all for Team Obama too. (But more importantly, Team Obama’s all for us!)
