Hillary Clintons April Fools Day Joke

Sen. Hillary Clinton suggested that she and Sen. Barack Obama have a Bowl Off for the Democratic Nomination. This comes after Obama bowled (terribly) for some publicity with some voters in Pennsylvania . Too bad Clinton’s idea won’t get any traction, because it has to be more fair and Democratic than what the DNC is going to cook up(considering Florida, Michigan, and Superdelegates).

Hillary Clinton challenged Barack Obama to a primary season bowl-off Tuesday, with the winner to top the party’s ticket this fall.

“And when this game is over the American people will know they’ll have a president who’s ready to bowl on day one. We don’t have a moment to spare because it’s already April Fools Day,” she told reporters at a Pennsylvania press conference.

The New York senator that added it was time for the Obama campaign “to get out of the gutter. For all the pins to be counted…” and said she would spot him two frames.

Clinton may have been joking – but in a winner-take-all bowl-off, she might have the edge. This Saturday in Altoona, Pennsylvania Obama came in a distant third in a three-way bowling game, finishing with an underwhelming score of 37 over seven frames.

“I was terrible,” the Illinois senator told the crowd at the bowling alley, according to the Associated Press. “My economic plan is better than my bowling.”

Responded one unimpressed bystander: “It has to be.”

    I’ll spot him 5 frames. I haven’t touched a bowling ball in almost 10 years and I know that I can still beat .

Got something to say?
