Obama-rama! updated

By Rose Stricker ( Contact ) February 14, 2008

After Barack Obama's visit to Janesville Wednesday morning, I wondered what kinds of changes there might be in Southern Wisconsin if Mr. Obama were to become our next United States president. Here are some (very silly, and not very likely) possibilities:

1 - This area of Southern Wisconsin to be renamed "Barack County".

2 - Therefore, a local insitution of higher learning would become "UW Barack County".

3 - Janeville's own water ski team will be known as "Rock Barack-qua Jays".

4 - If you want to get really crazy, here's an entire Encyclopedia Baracktannica: (Click the "More" button to the right of Obama's head.)

Can you think of any others that are Southern Wisconsin specific?

Can we just solve the whole superdelegate question by watching the two candidates in a round of barack, paper, scissors? If he grows a few more legs, can Obama-haters become baracknophobes?

Did you hear that in honor of his visit to Janesville, Parker and Craig students involved in theater are now in "Bama club"? Or that our sister station is changing formats from country to Barack and roll?
We better be careful in case he reads this. He'd probably say, "If it ain't Barack, don't fix it!"
Ok, I'm done.
