The latest addition to the American political lexicon?

avatar

All the talk of a Clinton/Obama dream ticket (which I suspect is not terribly dreamy in the mind of Obama and probably the Clintons) got me to thinking...

Shouldn't their names be smooshed together like all the other fabulously and fabulously dysfunctional folk who provide us with so much tabloid fodder? C'mon, we've got TomKat, Brangelina, Romber (Rob and Amber from Survivor)

And so, without further ado, I offer up the following for your delectation:

Clobama, or perhaps Oblinton

Talk amongst yourselves. I'll revisit the pros and cons of each shortly.

I personally like:

Hillarama - sounds like something that would appeal to trailer park afficionados everywhere, it should increase the base.

OR

Obary - sounds like part of the female reproductive system, sure to motivate women and energize single-issue pro-choicers.

I think Billary seems to be gaining traction out there...

Clobama sounds like an STD (ick.)


What about Obamaton (wait - too cultish - and don't we already have those?)

Or Barallary (or just plain old Barry?)

I personally like Oblinton, because it sounds a bit like some bad Irish pub chain.
