Getting jiggy with it: Barack Obama shows his moves on The Ellen DeGeneres Show | They really will do anything to get elected. At the end of a long campaign day on Tuesday in Florida, Democrat Barack Obama had one more stop: The Ellen DeGeneres Show.
DeGeneres got right down to business. "Let's talk about dancing," she said.
"Your wife, Michelle, was on the show and she was talking some smack about your moves."
DeGeneres played music and gave Obama 20 seconds to prove his spouse wrong. He complied, albeit in a decidedly awkward set of circumstances standing alone on a patch of concrete and looking into cameras that were to beam him into the studio, as supporters and reporters watched.
He gamely grooved a little, though mostly with his arms, before calling off the operation with a smile.
"Michelle may be a better dancer, but I am convinced I am a better dancer than John McCain," Obama said of his Republican rival.
Obama would be a good 007
British national Daniel Craig may not be able to vote in the American presidential election, but he's already decided which candidate would make a better Bond.
"Obama would be the better Bond because if he's true to his word he'd be willing to look the enemy in the eye and go toe-to-toe with them," said Craig. "McCain, because of his long service and experience, would probably be a better M (James Bond's boss)," he added. |
