The Pepsi Candidate

Friday, August 22nd, 2008In a blind taste test, which candidate would you choose?
Today Slate had an amusing piece pointing out the similarities between the presumptive Democratic candidate and Pepsi. For the record, someone else pointed this out way back in February. The logo similarity had never occurred to me, even though I had parodied it for the (ahem) donate button (yes people, that thing works, try it some time!) on the upper right of these pages. The design blog Under Consideration/Speak Up digs deeper into the genius of the Pepsi candidate’s marketing materials here. So what would McCain’s beverage brand be? Pepto-Bismol? If you consider the fact that most of his wealth is derived from the wife’s Anheuser-Busch ties, you could pick from the product list. Busch Light? Bare Knuckle Stout? Hurricane Ice? Lost Energy (yes, that’s an actual product name)? Feel free to post your suggestions.
Will Obama Need a Dick Tuck?

While a lot of people, specifically liberals, feel comfortable that Barack Obama’s smooth, articulate style will help him win against the stodgy, brain-fart-laden mannerisms of John McCain, let’s not forget America’s recent political history. Richard Nixon’s presidency will forever be a reminder that even a surly, humorless, sweaty-lipped used car salesman can run for president and win. Even when a legendary prankster like Dick Tuck is working against him. I say legendary, even though I’d never heard of him until yesterday. If anyone out there can find a photo of Mr. Tuck, I’d like to see it. The only image I could find (at left) is from the museumofhoaxes.com site. By the way, I STRONGLY discourage doing a Google Image Search for “Dick Tuck”.
