Clinton challenges Obama to a "bowl-off"

ha!

"Kicks off press avail in Philadelphia in a somber tone by calling for….

A bowling match in Pennsylvania to decide the race. “Winner take all. I’ll even spot him two frames.”

She continues, to guffaws from the press:

“It’s time for his campaign to get out of the gutter. For all the pins to be counted… And when this game is over the American people will know they’ll have a president who’s ready to bowl on day one.”

Reminds the press after her statement: APRIL FOOLS

3. Only if it was counterbalanced

with a round of "Horse."

Isn't that the name of the game during which you take turns to see who can make five baskets in a row?

It's been a while since my kid played it.

7. I agree

Her April Fools day challenge seems to be the most reasonable challenge she's made in the last few months.

6. Hah! She fell for it. Obama was obviously sandbagging to lure Clinton

into a "winner take all" bowl off. He is secretly an expert bowler.

9. So, you see a "shark" too?

But Hillary's got "people". She could have the thumbhole super-glued or something.

37? c'mon. I bet if he paid attention, he could roll a 45, easy.

10. She'll spot him two frames if he'll spot her $10 for a game and shoe rental.
