ABC News' Sunlen Miller Reports: Sometimes even politicians need a break from the game of politics. Aboard his 757 airplane en route for five hours from Washington, D.C. to Oregon, Democratic presidential candidate Senator Barack Obama opted for a new game: Taboo. Obama was challenged to a press corps versus Obama staff game to pass some in flight time. Called "the game of unspeakable fun, the Hasbro board game is a regular pastime for journalists traveling on Obama's plane, trying to pass the time during the rare moments when blackberry service is out of range.

What Can’t Obama Say?
http://piseco.homeschooljournal.net/2008/05/09/what-cant-oba...What Can’t Obama Say? May 9th, 2008 Add this to my enormous list of reasons to vote for Obama… Aboard his 757 airplane en route for five hours from Washington, D.C. to Oregon, Democratic presidential candidate Senator Barack Obama opted for a new game: Taboo. Obama was challenged to a press corps versus Obama staff game to pass some in flight time. Taboo is one of our all-time favorite games! Another reporter, leading the press team to guess the word “white house” said, “This is where Senator Obama wants to live.” The correct guesses enlisted a more favorable response from the Senator. You can read the rest of the article on the ABC News blog. And in other fun board game news, Looney Labs has announced that their next version of Fluxx will be based on Monty Python!
