Obama's Word Association on Fox Business Network

Senator Barack Obama made his FOX Business Network debut today and played a game of word association with Alexis Glick. His responses are below.

Alexis Glick: Senator, I want to have a little fun with you if you don't mind because you like to have some fun. We do something on our show about word association.

Senator Obama: Go ahead.

Alexis Glick: I'm going to give you a couple of words and you just tell me what you think.

Senator Obama: I'll do my best.

Alexis Glick: NAFTA

Senator Obama: Mixed bag.

Glick: Wall Street.

Obama: Money.

Glick: Sovereign Wealth Funds.

Obama: Caution.

Glick: Iran.

Obama: Threat.

Glick: Exxon Mobile.

Obama: Profitable.

Glick: OPEC.

Obama: One word. For OPEC I would say is independence. The association I have there is we have to free ourselves from dependence on OPEC.

Glick: Senator John McCain.

Obama: Honorable.

Glick: There is a big event going on this evening and it is the NBA draft. And your home team, the Chicago Bulls, have the number one draft pick. Who do they pick?

Obama: I think Derek Rose is the man. I think he is Jason Kidd with a jump shot. I think he'll be a great point guard in the NBA and he's from Chicago.

Glick: So hey that sounds like a great plan!

Obama: Absolutely.

Glick: Next time we sit down, you know I'm a basketball player, I want to play basketball with you.

Obama: You've got game?

Glick: I've got game! Listen, I'm a graduate of Columbia and a basketball player. I was thinking zone defense, man to man, we can go to the free-throw line and see who does the best out of ten.

Obama: Let me see your nails.

Glick: Oh they are horrible.

Obama: You're going to have to clip those before we get on the court.

Glick: Next time it's a date?

Obama: Let's go.

Glick: It's a deal?

Obama: It's a deal.
