'Vote for me, I'm a better dancer than McCain,' says Obama as he shows off his moves on TV

‘Michelle may be a better dancer, but I am convinced I am a better dancer than John McCain,’ Obama said of his Republican rival.

Until McCain dusts off his dancing shoes it may be difficult to verify Obama's claim.

But with a new poll showing that Obama is creating an imposing lead over his Republican rival he could certainly afford to be a little light-hearted.

And since he knows the media is 99.9% in the tank for him, he knows he can afford to be an ass. Let's see, on the one side, you have a 72 year old man who had his body broken by torture (the real kind, not the panties-on-the-head kind) in the service of his country. A man that can't even tie his own shoes or comb his own hair. And on the other side, you have a perfectly healthy 47 year old.

Gee, really? You think you can dance better than a virtual cripple who's got two decades on you? What's next? Betting you can pole vault better than Stephen Hawking? Maybe Stephen would have a shot, so long as he had Joe the Gaffe coaching him on.

I wonder when the media will bring this up, or, you know, break the news to The One that he dances like a white guy.
