With the recent revelation that Republican Senator Rick Santorum from Pennsylvania is a big Lord of the Rings fan, Medary.com asks the question the entire Internet is afraid to ask:

Is Missouri Senator Jim Talent now, or has he ever been a Dungeons and Dragons player? He certainly looks like the kind of person who did, and very successfully, too.

Jim Talent: D&D geek?

My guess is that if indeed Jim "Seventh Level Elvish Cleric" Talent started with the first AD&D edition rather than the original three stapled, soft-cover books plus Greyhawk.

Claire "Do I look like someone you want to piss off?" McCaskill probably played Sorry. Or UNO. Or, possibly, Hungry, Hungry Hippos.

Claire McCaskill: We are not amused

(Full disclosure: filbert did in fact play D&D for a number of years before he kicked the habit in favor of alcohol, basketball, computers, and blogging, but he retains a soft spot in his heart for Illuminati.)
