Either one would be the shoot-off of the century.
Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) is offering to go one-on-one with Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin on the basketball court, but says hell leave the other kind of shooting with an actual gun to her.
In an interview taped for ABCs This Week, host George Stephanopoulos read a question from a viewer in Union City, Pa.: "Would you go one-on-one with Sarah Palin?"
Encouraging Obama to play along, Stephanopoulos threw out her nickname as a high-school basketball player Sarah Barracuda.
You know, I would play her a game of horse, Obama said. She looks like she's got some game. She plays high you know, I know she's a sharpshooter.
I probably wouldn't do target practice with her. I think she'd be a better shot than me. But on the basketball court, I think I'd stand up pretty well.
We would break all Nielsen records, Stephanopoulos says with a smile.
Oh, I'm sure that's true, Obama replied. There's no doubt.

What a Wus. Why not one on one?

Sarah Barracuda would stomp the living crap out of Zer-O on the court. No Doubt.

Maybe as the back-board.
Hey,
This gives me an idea for a new debate format.
Make a shot, get 5 minutes to talk on national TV about anything you want.
Obama would be so rattled after Sarah’s first volley, he’d never get a chance to speak......
All that bumping. The Secret Service would have to intervene.
My thoughts exactly!
Obama doesn't like it when someone gets in his face.
lol!
kick his sorry community activist butt!
I seriously doubt Obama has ever shot a ral gun in his life.
Just another debate the defrocked one will refuse ... scheduling, y’know.
Star point guard vs benchwarmer, yeah that’d be a good matchup. Sarah would mop the floor with Obambi.
I’m sure Obama knows all about doing horse and playing high.
Another FReeper posted this a few days ago:(paraphrasing)
BREAKING NEWS: Alaska Gov and newly elected GOP VP candidate Sarah Palin has challenged Barack Obama to a one-on-one game of basketball.
Palin believes she will be victorious and it would be a rout, due to the fact that Obama has an extreme difficulty going to go his right.
Horse? Isn't that something like Around the World?
Play her a game of horsesass, Obama.
You'd be sure to win....................
Yes. He was too much of a coward to take her on one-on-one.
He wants to change the subject from guns bc he knows he and Biden are the most antigun team ever run by the Democratic party.
