How is it that a pizzeria in San Luis Obispo knows anything about Barack Obama’s favorite “pie?” Maybe he mentioned it in an interview. I suppose it makes sense. Cheese and sausage. It’s a classic combination. Especially for a Chicagoan. And for a politician, it makes a good statement. It’s simple. Elegant, almost. Not too decadent or overloaded with toppings, but also not too left-of-center. Like say, a Hawaiian pizza or (gasp!) a vegetarian pizza. Cheese and sausage. That’s a working man’s slice, right there.

I’d still like to know if it is indeed true. Or did Woodstock’s just make it up so they could cash in on the Barack Obama merch craze. Maybe it was just a clever way to sell inexpensive pizzas to the restaurant’s primary clientele, cash-strapped college kids. Kinda makes me wonder what John McCain’s favorite pizza is. Actually, I doubt pizza is a regular part of his diet these days.
