This Is Why There Are Companies That Specialize in Campaign Printing...
Poor Barack Obama...... Eh, maybe not, but when you run for President, there will be your name of things that you don't necessarily endorse - and some things that you DEFINITELY don't endorse.....
In Idaho, Democrats were trying to tie in Senate candidate Larry La Rocco with the surging Obama campaign. They hired Tigereye Design to produce some 3-inch buttons featuring Obama and LaRocco, with the 'Change We Can Believe In' tag on it.... Not very original, but what came out was quite unique .
When the buttons came out, they had the wrong Larry on them. Who was on it? Obama and outgoing Idaho Senator and famous toetapper Larry Craig, who's seat LaRocco is running for. LaRocco's campaign swears they didn't order them, but that a Democratic commercial firm did. Who cares? The gaffe is Classic !! Having the Democrat Obama with the Republican Craig is funny enough, but having the one who was arrested in a Minneapolis airport for soliciting sex from a cop in a bathroom stall is unbelieveable....
I know, I know... You're asking, 'Hey Mike, where can i get one of those buttons?' Well, don't hold your breath..... They've stopped making them, and the old ones are sold out, and are already considered collectors items. My advice is that if you really want one, you should go on EBay soon. No doubt the $1 buttons are going for $50 or more...
So, here is my tribute to Tigereye Design - good luck finding any candidates to hire you now....My guess is these are the guys who work there.....
