John McCain and Bill Clinton also picked UNC as champion.
This is more of halftime fun for NCAA manias, not so much for political chasers.

Apparently bracketology is not his strong suit.

Baracketology!

Outside of Las Vegas, and Atlantic City isn't all sport betting illegal? Even work/bar pools?

psssh picking Baylor over Purdue

Gunning to win Indiana and voting against our basketball teams. Basketball is like a cult here, tisk tisk

Wingnuts mistaking NCAA for NAACP and making a stupid crack in 5...4...3...2..1...

Fluff story, but decent pics. Lighten up everyone.

And for the record, Pitt will not make the final Four, and I have UNC winning it all as well.

Bravo! First we get angry black Obama, now we get basketball Obama.

Boy - the ppl who planned this did it DAMN well.

So many sour grapes comments here. I bet if Hillary released her chocolate chip cookie recipe and HuffPo posted it, her supporters would go crazy with delight and adulation.

Speaking of sour grapes, the Michigan re-vote is dead, never got past the legislature, and Clinton is blaming Obama for the failure. The funny thing is the entire top of the Michigan Democratic machine was behind Clinton on this, plus millionaires like NJ gov. Corzine pledging to up the money. So with so much firepower behind it, why did it fail?

It failed because it was rigged in favor or Clinton and the MI legislature saw through it.

wait a minute , a black (well somewhat ) man playing basketball and trying to gleen his brackets.... Did not yu at huff who choose the articles listen to his speech? Next you will have Hillary predicting America's Next Top Model

If Obama can't pick someone other than North Carolina to win the tournament, how can we expect him to lead the country?!?!?

DUH.... =)

Whoa, unfair! We need balance. What about St. John McInsane? Huffpo better get its ass together and give us Old John's picks for the NCAA Shuffleboard extravaganza. There to the strains of stirring music from the early 50's old geezers wil show you whipper-snappers a thing or two.

Why? He is still a racist supporting a bigoted Reverend and Church. Do you think his basketball dribbling is going to change the fact that he is dropping in the polls like a sea gull nosedive?

Good riddance. America is far better off without him and will flourish with Clinton at the helm!

Give me a break! Who the hell cares? This man is a potential nominee for the presidency . . . don't know why his picks for the NCAA basketball tournament are of interest. How about his qualifications to be president . . . that's what should be in the news.

Now, if Obama went to those teams and told them whoever makes it to the Final Four, he will personally show up at their Campus and speak, I wonder if that would put a little charge in the game. i think it would.
