After the presidential hopeful walked away, [quality inspector Carolyn] Davis let out a “Whoo!” and fanned herself.
“It got hot in here. He ain’t bad looking either,” she told your pooler.

During the 25-minute tour, Obama called a woman “sweetie,” and thanked her in Spanish, then told another woman who let him know she is from Thailand, “I love Thai food.”

But Obama lavished compliments on dancewear manufacturer Marisa Cerveris, who gave him a black and pink leotard for [his daughters] Malia and Sasha, explaining she was once in the New York City ballet.
“You look like you might be a dancer,” Obama told her, later adding: “You’re big time.”
