Could've left and saved someone else's job. Greedy 1 percenter. RT @jimgeraghty: Lottery winners give Obama hope!

BREAKING I will now vote for #Obama because I hope I win the lottery like that autoworker did! #DNC2012

Hey, maybe Obama was trying to tell us that he plays lotto?
Obama: gains hope from worker who wins lottery. Hoping he will too?
