Indecision 2008 Video: Road to the White House's Doghouse

Seems like everyone wants to get in their two cents on the new Obama puppy, and even Jon Stewart chimed in with a couple strong contestants that need to take a trip down the "Road to the Doghouse." It's a bumpy path – complete with maverick – watch the video below and see what you think.

Do Tell: Make Predictions About the (New) Obama Puppy Here!

I'd have to say my favorite part of last night's events, was when the president-elect announced to his young daughters, "Sasha and Malia, I love you both so much, and you have earned the new puppy that's coming with us to the White House." Now, this wasn't news to me but many people haven't been following the Obamas' doggie decisions as carefully as I have. He originally made the promise that, no matter the outcome, a puppy would make them a party of five after the campaign was over . . . and now that means a canine will be also moving into the White House come January!

I can't decide when the pooch will join the family – before they move or after they're settled – and I'm not totally certain what type of dog it'll be. After all, Michelle Obama told Entertainment Tonight that they would be rescuing, but 10-year-old Malia seems set on a goldendoodle, a mixed (Golden Retriever/Poodle) pup that often warrants a higher price tag based on their hypoallergenic qualities (and did I mention the cute?!).

What do you think the Obama dog will be in the end . . . and when do you expect we'll meet this new furball?

Who Did North Vote For?

Remember those political toys of "Bark Obama" and "John McCanine"? Well, before I voted, I decided to let North cast his ballot at home. Watch this video and tell me which toy he preferred. (It obviously doesn't need to correspond with our actual picks.)

Hmmm, both got kisses from my friendly pup. Maybe he wants a third-party candidate (an unknown dipped in peanut butter)? We'll have to wait and see the results!
