5. Rahm campaigned for Meek
Okay, he came down and showed up for a fund raiser. But I don't think you'll find Obama doing robo calls for Crist.

6. Since Obama is a Christian I'd think he'd be in support of Christ, wouldn't you?
And no--Rahm Emanuel has made it very clear the White House is backing Kendrick Meek.

8. Heard yesterday that both the President and
Clinton endorse Meeks. This was on NPR and said by its senior political editor.

11. "Obama Campaigns For Meek And Sink In Miami"
Obama Campaigns For Meek And Sink In Miami

President Barack Obama flew into Miami International Airport Wednesday afternoon to add some star power at a fundraiser for state CFO Alex Sink, who is running for governor, and give an image boost to Democrat Kendrick Meek who is running for a Senate seat.
Wednesday's visit to South Florida was part of President Obama's efforts save his Democratic majorities in the House and Senate, but he's facing a tough sell; including in South Florida. Air Force One touched down at MIA just before 4:30 p.m.

Obama threw his support to Meek and not his opponent Jeff Greene who has portrayed himself as a political outsider in his campaign.
"Kendrick's been a champion of middle-class families and someone who's not been afraid to the status-quo and special interest," Obama said. "We need that kind of fighter in the Senate."

Meek believes Obama's visit will be pivotal for his campaign.
"When the President decided to come down days before the primary, it's going to help give voters some direction as to who they should vote for in the upcoming Tuesday election," said Meek.

While the President's approval ratings have dropped in recent weeks, Meek says he'll be grateful for any help he can receive from Mr. Obama in the General Election.
"He's the President of the United States of America. It doesn't hurt to be able to call the President and have a pre-existing relationship to get things done. I always see that as a positive," said Meek.

14. If Christ is running for a seat, I don't see why Obama would not support him
After all, Jesus would be a shoo-in anywhere.
