Obama Campaign Introduces Customized Lapel Pins

Update:  Due to overwhelming demand, we have taken the Obama lapel pins from concept phase to the real-world, buyable phase.  Get yours for only $2.49 (cheap!).

It's the perfect accessory for the ironic Obama supporter, and a wonderful "substitute for true patriotism"!

Obama Lapel Pin

In celebration of his having traveled to an impressive 57 states in his bid for the Presidency (and to finally put to rest the notion that he abhors patriotic accessories), Barack Obama's campaign has introduced a custom line of American flag lapel pins.

Get yours today and show your support for the least senile candidate in the race!

Let's all give a warm, manifestly destined welcome to what I assume are our 7 newest states:

51.  Puerto Rico
52.  Guam
53.  Northern Mariana
54.  American Samoa
55.  St. Croix
56.  St. Thomas
57.  St. John

I guess we should've seen this coming when Obama was reported to be meeting unofficially with the Governor of the U.S. Virgin Islands when he took his family on "vacation" to St. Thomas.

(HT: Hot Air)


Update:  It's just been announced that two superdelegates from the Virgin Islands have pledged support for Obama, giving him his first-ever superdelegate lead over Clinton.  Interesting timing, no? 

You scratch my back, I grant you statehood.
