2. I just can't get over that Obama gave him cupcakes....

it's almost as if he knew.

Cupcakes, popcorn & hats - just simple stuff. I love it.

3. I'll bet you my

left testicle that he did know.

4. I bet Obama is a secret DU lurker

He had to have known. That picture is adorable.

5. VI - you can go ahead and keep it.

I really have no use for it :)

That said - I bet you're right.

Seriously, not only would he have to read DU, he'd have to make his way over to our little group.
Something tells me Obama is too busy to sit around and read DU.

It's just a fun coincidence.

7. I love that it's not some staffer or caterer carrying it over - just Barack and Joe :)

11. Maybe Barack thinks Joe is a cupcake too?

:rofl: :rofl: OR his staffers have been reading our forum. High likely. I betcha! :rofl:

8. OK: Who TOLD THEM about the CUPCAKES?!?

:rofl: 'Fess up!

[Eurobabe]

12. I bet you we have had some Lurkers

of the Obama staff persuasion.

Anyhow, Barack made our wish come true! :loveya:

13. Well...

Most of the field coordinators in the Macomb County, MI office knew. The day he selected Biden, I was so excited I kept babbling incoherent stuff about "Oh, how wonderful, our cupcake!" They asked what the hell I was babbling about, and so I sort of explained (like someone said, the story gets lost in the translation), but they got the idea that a group of supporters from DU had given him the nickname of cupcake.

Wouldn't it be funny if he really did know about the nickname, and our stalking, er I mean, devoted tendencies?

14. Didn't someone from the board call to ask about sending cupcakes?

Maybe the word got to Obama?

[AspenRose]

15. Yep...I called them

[PatSeg]

9. I tried to explain the whole thing to my son

but he didn't really get it. Finally said, "Guess you had to be there". It was an evolutionary process that gets lost in translation.

16. Funny!!

“You’re 12 years old!” Obama told Biden according to a Democratic source.

“Maybe in dog years!” Biden responded, laughing.

:rofl:
