Speaking to reporters at the Dubai Desert Classic Wednesday, Tiger Woods expressed how impressed he is with Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama.
See Also:"I've seen him speak. He's extremely articulate, very thoughtful," Woods said. "I'm just impressed at how well, basically all politicians really do, how well they think on their feet. Especially those debates. It's pretty phenomenal to see them get their point across. But I just think that he's really inspired a bunch of people in our country and we'll see what happens down the road." In other Obama news, the conservative-leaning New York Post has endorsed Obama instead of his Democratic opponent, and home state senator, Hillary Rodham Clinton. The newspaper referred to Obama as an "untried candidate," but a favorable alternative to Clinton, who along with her husband, former President Bill Clinton, "stand for deja vu all over again — a return to the opportunistic, scandal-scarred, morally muddled years of the almost infinitely self-indulgent Clinton co-presidency," the paper wrote. "Does America really want to go through all that once again? It will — if Senator Clinton becomes president." The Post endorsed Sen. Clinton's re-election bid in 2006, calling her a "pretty good senator." But as a presidential candidate, the newspaper had a decidedly different opinion of the former First Lady. "A return to Senator Clinton's cattle-futures deal, Travelgate, Whitewater, Filegate, the Lincoln Bedroom Fire Sale, Pardongate — and the inevitable replay of the Monica Mess? No, thank you," the paper wrote. Obama "has the ability to inspire," the paper added, noting "We don't agree much with Obama on substantive issues. But many Democrats will." And for what it's worth, the online audience of AtomFilms' kungfuelection.com has also endorsed Obama as the Democratic nominee for president. Kung-Fu Election invites players to choose their favorite candidate among the top eight options across both parties and take them into battle against a political enemy. Options include Democratic frontrunners Obama and Clinton as well as their Republican counterparts John McCain, Mitt Romney and Mike Huckabee. The would-be presidents duke it out with an array of special weapons and Kung-Fu moves that will leave only one candidate standing. After 1.4 million total plays since Jan. 3, more of the game's players have chosen Obama than any other candidate to take into battle against the other presidential contenders. Obama was selected as the candidate/fighter-of-choice by 25% of all players, with his Democratic opponent Clinton selected only 13% of the time.
