  1. Would you streak in front of Obama for $1 million? Lucky streak - Before Obama, nude man sprints • A man reportedly streaked in front of Obama as he addressed voters during a rally sponsored by the Democratic National Committee. • Photos of the man are making the rounds on the Internet, one with a "VOTE 2010" campaign sign covering his naked front; another with "Battlecam" and "Battle cam" written across his chest in black ink. • Billionaire Alki David, who offered in the summer to give $1 million to the first person to streak in front of Obama as long as "Battlecam" was written on the streaker’s chest, told the Weekly Standard he plans to pay up "when I see the video and it's confirmed." • It's unclear if Obama noticed the streaker, who is pictured here being escorted by police officers out of the event, which was held in a field outside an elementary school.
