Prez Election 2008

With 202 days left in office, President Bush showed off his best "O face" yesterday at the White House where he hosted "Tee Ball on the South Lawn" with Little League mascot Dugout.

Honorary Commissioner Roberto Clemente, Jr. (center) was also there. Although his name isn't dirty, he was completely shaved.

Anti-Barack Obama vandals spray-painted 60 vehicles last night at Orlando's city hall -- with enlightening comments like "Oboma [sic] smoke crack" and racial slurs.

The weirdest part? Business cards left at the scene apparently belonged to supporters of Hillary Clinton.

UPDATE: Hillary's camp just sent us this statement: "There's no tolerance for this kind of activity in the political process. Hillary Clinton strongly supports Barack Obama and urges all of her supporters to do the same."

We're waiting on a comment from Barack's people.

Barack Obama is gearing up for the fight of his life -- by hitting the gym!

The candidate for change was spotted at a DC sports club on Friday morning in a baseball cap, t-shirt and running pants, working his triceps and hoisting 65 lb dumbbells, according to the National Journal. Barack also got his cardio on while reading the paper and listening to his iPod on the treadmill. Arnold ain't the only bodybuilder in the political ring!

As if the three-car motorcade and Secret Service agents didn't give his identity away, Barack had to be looked up in the gym's system because he forgot his membership card.

Running for President ain't what it used to be!

Who knew John McCain liked the sound of his own voice so much?

McCain's campaign arranged a phone call on Friday with reporters and the leaders of B'nai B'rith International, a major Jewish group. One problem, McCain's cell reception was so bad they lost the call after his first sentence.

Unfortunately, no one told McCain. Eighteen minutes passed says the LA Times, when McCain finally was put back on the line. A clueless McCain was told, "You gave your whole speech and you didn't know you weren't connected to us." He apologized and did it again.

Johansson has been telling anyone who would listen that she has a furious email and phone relationship with the Democratic nominee and even that she's "engaged" to him. (That's probably news to Ryan Reynolds.) But as the National Review reports, Barack just revealed that he's only gotten one email Scarlett -- and it came through his assistant.

He baited Oprah into rolling down the nice piece of glass, by questioning her support of Obama. Fact is, her big endorsement did little for him and actually hurt her ratings. But she said she'd go door-to-door for Barack. Oprah calling!

BTW -- Yes, that's Gayle King in the car with her. She's like Sam Ronson, without those adorable flannel shirts.

TheDirty.com got this pic of the former almost-President posing with a few fans last week.

Everyone really does care about the environment.

... well, overbooked is more like it.

Sources tell TMZ that Team Hillary had reserved hundreds of Denver hotel rooms for staffers and supporters during the Democratic National Convention in August -- rooms they really won't be needing anymore!

Now, we're told the campaign has sent emails to politicos, charity organizers and supporters who might be looking for a place to stay for the big bash!

Calls to Hillary's camp have not yet been returned.

Dubya got a parting gift from a group of schoolchildren in Northern Ireland on Monday -- a flowery plant with the words The Mighty Bush written across it.

Is there anyone who doesn't want to give Bush something?!

It's not like she's going to vote for McCain or anything -- so why not back Barack?

Mel's daddy is dragging Prez candidate Paul -- yes he's still in it to win it -- into his fray, doing a seriously earnest ad for him on his homepage. He also says wants to be friends with "Catholics and patriots."

Guess no matter how hard he tries, the C-Man just can't get the taste of Hillary out of his mouth.
