Not since Harry S. Truman sank a 21 foot jumper during a campaign stop in Keyser, West Virginia in 1948 have we seen a presidential candidate hit a genuine three-point shot. Ladies and gentlemen, our long wait is over.

As part of the "3-on-3 Challenge for Change" voter registration drive in Indiana, students who registered 20 people to vote were eligible for a drawing to play Sen. Barack Obama in a game of 3-on-3 at their school. In the following video, we see clips of the historic game at Maple Crest Middle School in Kokomo, Indiana.



But, wait. I know what you're thinking. Kokomo? Yeah, Kokomo. Is there a problem?

Our New Approach to Comments

In an effort to encourage the same level of civil dialogue among Politics Daily’s readers that we expect of our writers – a “civilogue,” to use the term coined by PD’s Jeffrey Weiss – we are requiring commenters to use their AOL or AIM screen names to submit a comment, and we are reading all comments before publishing them. Personal attacks (on writers, other readers, Nancy Pelosi, George W. Bush, or anyone at all) and comments that are not productive additions to the conversation will not be published, period, to make room for a discussion among those with ideas to kick around. Please read our Help and Feedback section for more info.
