Mr. Potato Head And The Presidential Candidates

I don’t know why this amused me, but it did.

It’s not at all unusual for folks in this town to meet at least one of the presidential candidates. Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, John McCain, Chris Dodd et al. have campaigned amid Clinton’s 27,000 residents in recent months.

What’s unusual — okay, a little odd — is for someone to have met almost all the candidates and taken photos of each one smiling with his Mr. Potato Head. That’s right. Mr. Potato Head.

Andy Green is a student that has gotten the presidential candidates to pose with Mr. Potato Head.

Brilliant. Just brilliant.

Green got most of the candidates with Mr. PH.

    [...] I found a blog entry detailing how a guy got several candidates to pose with Mr PotatoHead.  Strangely enough there is an erie resemblance on the part of Mr PotatoHead to Barack Obama. Skin tone and especially the ears.  The only conclusion that can be drawn is Mr PotatoHead is B.O.’s love child. [...]
