A Cuppa Obama Joe

It seems as though Barack Obama has reached every imaginable corner known to a political campaign. I had thought so until the other day when the girl alerted me to one I hadn't considered. If you happen to be in Australia, you can get a little bit of him in your morning (or evening as the case is with me) cup of coffee. Campos Coffee is pushing its "Obama Blend," a renamed combination of flavors taken from places that (hopefully) most of us know have a claim on his name. The Obama blend, according to its Web site, has:

Great depth of character, strong, and eloquent. This very appealing blend unites coffees from Africa and the Americas to produce a cup which has gotten us excited. Formidable middle palate flavors, syrupy with an uplifting finish. Excellent drink for going forward.

We walked the couple of blocks to Campos yesterday, and after a little confusion, which I found out was due in part to my accent, we purchased our pound. It's not too bad, either. Brisbane's Street Editors have more. I'm gonna alert the campaign now. I wonder if they need editors.
