SEATTLE -  President Barack Obama squeezed in some time to stop for doughnuts Thursday on the second day of a West Coast campaign blitz.

Obama and Washington Sen. Patty Murray dropped by Top Pot Doughnuts in downtown Seattle, where Obama ordered a sampler of two dozen doughnuts to go. Obama is in Seattle to campaign with Murray, who is in a tight race against Republican Dino Rossi.

Obama shared a doughnut with Murray, declaring it "outstanding." He urged the other customers at the shop to vote in the upcoming midterm election before carrying the two boxes of doughnuts back to his motorcade.

Man, Obama's visit was so harmful to the Murray campaign that Top Pot sold out of the doughnut he ate and is expecting a rush tomorrow.. Rossi supports should put out a PR saying the Pumpkin doughnut is contributing to the national debt...

Doesn't anyone remember how these guys ripped off a little old lady who gave them the money to get started and they went on to made millions? I haven't touched their over priced doughnuts since that article broke and the lawsuit was filed.

Did he pay for them, and did they just smell too good to pass up like the Seahawk player did?
