My wife has an "Another Momma for Obama" button. Whoever printed it
(likely not O's campaign) tried to associate Obama with peace by
having the "O" be a peace sign. Alas, they used the Mercedes logo. So
Obama is a Mercedes Moderate?

This brings back fond memories. Back when I was in high school (and
dinosaurs roamed the earth), we had a little peace rally in the
student lounge.[*] Ed Zwick (now a big Hollywood director -- I'm not
kidding) played a guitar and sang Phil Ochs' song, "the Draft-Dodger
Rag." Behind him was a big Mercedes logo. BTW, I doubt that Ed was
responsible for the sign.

[*] For you younger folks who don't remember, we were protesting our
government's adventurism: led by Alcibiades, it invaded Sicily,
attacked Syracuse, and got into big trouble.
