Senator Token Update.

Eek! It's that Porpoise Driven Life guy again! He is not satisfied with being able to steal millions from gullible sheep. He wants to be a Leader of Men.

Not coincidentally, so does Senator Token...

AP: Famed pastor defends invitation to Obama
Famed pastor and best-selling author Rick Warren on Wednesday defended his invitation to Sen. Barack Obama to speak at his church despite objections from some evangelicals who oppose the Democrat's support for abortion rights.

Washington's other newspaper: Church Is Urged to Disinvite Obama
Antiabortion groups are assailing one of the nation's most influential evangelicals, the Rev. Rick Warren, for inviting Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) to speak at a conference on HIV/AIDS at his Southern California megachurch this weekend.

Chicago Sun-Times: Obama is going to go for it
by Lynn Sweet
Bottom line: I think Sen. Barack Obama, who is seriously considering a run for president, is going to jump into the 2008 race.

Senator Token looks to bolster his street cred...

Chicago Sun-Times: Obama meets with Ludacris
U.S. Sen. Barack Obama, contemplating a run for president, met privately Wednesday with rapper Ludacris to talk about young people.

I wonder if Senator Token took Mr. Cris to task for referring to some young people as niggers and whores in his "songs"?

''We talked about empowering the youth,'' said the artist, whose real name is Chris Bridges.

Bridges was in town to launch the YouthAIDS ''Kick Me'' campaign to raise HIV/AIDS awareness during a stop at Northwestern University in the Chicago suburb of Evanston.

While I am not familiar with Citizen Bridges' entire oeuvre, I doubt any of his "songs" encourage the responsible use of one's sexual organs.

The gathering at Obama's downtown Chicago office was a meeting of two star powers: Obama, who enjoys rock star-like status on the political scene, and Ludacris, who has garnered acclaim for his music and acting.

Obama declined to comment after their meeting but walked with Bridges to the elevator as he left.

Bridges said meeting Obama, known for his warm personal style, was like meeting with a relative.

The spotlight has been on Obama, a first-term Democrat from Illinois, as he mulls a run for the White House in 2008. Obama has said he would make a decision in the coming months.

Meanwhile, he is scheduled to visit New Hampshire Dec. 10 for a Democratic Party event.

Obama, who became famous two years ago after addressing the Democratic National Convention, is no stranger to the star set.

He has graced the cover of magazines, appeared on Oprah Winfrey's talk show and is scheduled to appear Friday on ''The Tonight Show with Jay Leno,'' where he will promote his best-seller, ''The Audacity of Hope.'' Obama already has won a Grammy Award for readings from his memoir, ''Dreams From My Father.''

Bridges' latest album, ''Release Therapy,'' debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard album charts when it was released in September and his acting chops include appearing in the Oscar-winning ''Crash'' and ''Hustle & Flow.''

Ol' Barack is this close to being dubbed Prince Token.
