Support Your Candidate- Buy A Latte

I opened my Inbox this morning and what did I see? A really a great move toward bringing some levity to a tense election season. I didn’t change a word because I loved every word of this little “shameless attempt” from my friends at Black & Brew in Downtown Lakeland. 
Support Your Candidate.
Obama & McCain Lattes Have Arrived!
 
In a shameless attempt to create a business opportunity out of the upcoming election, we have launched each candidate’s latte counterpart. Just as it is with the election, this is a popularity contest. At the end of each day the total lattes sold will be added to the previous day’s totals and posted on our election board. The winning latte and candidate will be announced on election day, before the exit pollers even have a shot!
 
Obama Latte
Ghirardelli white and dark chocolate, steamed milk and whipped cream.
 
McCain Latte
Ghirardelli white chocolate, hazelnut, steamed milk and whipped cream.
 
Buy a limited edition latte today. It’s the patriotic thing to do.
 
Paid for by the “Straight Talk Espresso” campaign.
