Now that Obama has selected a VP, will he finally elect a "family dog"?

Question

Now that Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama has chosen his running mate, it's time for him to concentrate on another important selection: family dog.

"Most of our Presidents kept purebreds in the White House," said AKC Spokesperson Lisa Peterson. "When times get tough - during a bad economy or when presidential pressures are at their peak - these dogs serve as devoted and non-judgmental companions that bring joy and relaxation to our first families."

The AKC launched its poll to find a breed for Obama (www.presidentialpup.com) after reports that - win or lose - the Obamas promised their two daughters a dog after the presidential election. More than 42,000 people cast their vote over the seven-week campaign. The Poodle clinched the nomination

What would be your vote for his kind of dog?

Will Obama text his selection to his supporters?

Answer 1

Obama said he listens to Ludacris, so like many of the popular gansta-rappers,  he will probably get a pit-bull  ...perhaps He should adopt one of Michael Vick's.

Answer 2

(Insert Michelle Obama joke)

Too easy, seeing as how he thinks babies are punishments I doubt the man has any patience for a small animal running underfoot all the time.

Yes, I definitely see him as a puppy stomper.

Answer 3

A Scottish Terrior, like FDR's beloved Fala.

Answer 4

wow. yes lets worry about dogs during election season. plus obama wont win. theres too much against him. ppl will get scared in the end and get pressured into voting mccain

Answer 5

They generally choose pit bulls. Although he might want to choose something that doesn't remind him of Michelle.^

Answer 6

He should have a cat... it is a time for change after all. :)

Answer 7

yes a hairless one to be different and new

Answer 8

I don't see them as Poodle people. I'm fond of cocker spaniels and rots myself.
