If you listen to some of his speeches or interviews, you'll hear some poker phrases tossed in a fair bit. It always catches my ear.

Of all the candidates who haven't openly said what they would do, the above history makes me most optimistic about Obama. I plan to vote for him at this point....that could change if the Republicans nominate Ron Paul (...I am not holding my breath).
