Now, one could put a blazing GOP logo on it. Or write "Romney" across it. Better yet, in the state in question, get the Govenors logo on it.

(422 posts)In 'Lysistrata' by Aristophenes, the women of Athens, tired of the men and their constant war-mongering, lock themselves in the treasury and refuse to have sex with their husbands. The men, faced with no money for wars, and no sex, cave rapidly.
Pretty funny play actually.
