"Let's see, nullify votes in Michigan, check ... nullify votes in Florida, check ... nullify votes in Pennsylvania ... DAMMIT! I knew I was forgetting something."

"Senator Obama reflecting on where to check the King with the Rook or take the Bishop.  This is game 4 of the 21-game match with Senator Clinton for the US Democratic nomination, after the Superdelegates threw up their hands and quit the country."

"Senator Barack Obama, reading of Bill Clinton's recent--and completely unprovoked--comments reviving the whole Bosnia sniper-fire flap, feels a curious twinge of sympathy for his bitter presidential rival."
