TAKES A LICKIN' Obama
Barack Obama scored the coveted frozen treat endorsement yesterday when Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield—better known as Ben & Jerry—announced a new ice cream in his honor. The rather uninspired name: "Cherries for Change." Not surprisingly, some writers at conservative-leaning blogs are kindly offering up alternative names for Obama's flavor, with ideas ranging from amusing to outright offensive ...

• "Chocolate Promise"
• "Cherries Messiah"
• "Commie Crunch"
• "Lefty Licorice"
• "Trotsky Ice-Picnic"
• "Mocha Fluff"
• "Ice Cream Dream"
• "Nihili-Vanilli"
• "Nut 'n Substantial"
• "Chocful o' Hopee"
• "Obamanana Split"
• "Marx Bar Crunch"
• "ChocoNilla Swirl"
• "Barracky Road"
• "NeoPolitician"

Bonus! An honorable mention to a John McCain flavor idea: "Macadamia McCain... The purest white vanilla, with two of the largest nuts you've ever seen. If you look at the nutrition information label, it changes depending on what it thinks you want to read."
