Obama masks outselling McCain's masks at Halloween Stores- CLICK HERE!

A precurser to the Presidential Election - I think not (and I hope not)

That's not to say that I am stating my political views on this blog .. just that I do not believe that the sale of Halloween masks will predict the election outcome. Primarily because of the demographics that would buy Halloween masks to begin with.

Political candidates have been going door-to-door Trick or Treating for decades, but you'll likely see more Barack Obamas than John McCains this Halloween say the local store owners and online retailers.

Vinyl masks of Democrat presidential candidate Obama are reportedly selling better nationwide, and locally, than those of Republican McCain. Visit Costume Craze for Political Costumes

The real question is how the costume sales for Sarah Palin are selling? We saw a mask online of Sarah Palin at BuyCostume - but I think that you can do Sarah without a mask.

The key to the Palin makeup look is the glossy mauve lipstick. Pick up a bottle of Wet and Wild at the local drugstore. Add some Gray eyeshadow and a bit of bronzer and you are good to go :)
Sexy Librarian Glasses: Palin’s rectangular glasses are flying off the shelves according to some sources. Get a pair at any drugstore like CVS or Rite-Aid in the reading glass section.
Get a great pair of dangle earrings. (she loves those dangles)
Get a power suit at a local thrift store. Knee length in a conservative color like gray or black and add a little color with a red blouse.
Poof your hair up in back and wear bangs (or get a good wig at BeautyTrends)

According to many polls, Sarah's popularity is skyrocketing. The pro-life, devoutly Christian, happily married mother-of-five has emerged from the political margins to become the most intriguing woman in America. Go Palin!

Toilet Papering Shooting Raises Eyebrows

I read an article about a teen prank that almost resulted in an unthinkable disaster.
Parents read on and warn your kids!

Five teens were toilet-papering a home over in Kent county about 1 a.m. Sunday when the homeowner awoke and saw them. The homeowner fired three shots from a 12-gauge shotgun. Luckily only one injury and no deaths - but one has to worry about this situation especially with Halloween coming up.

A 14-year-old was struck. He was taken to the Hospital, where he is recovering from wounds to his chest, stomach and leg.

Granted, the toilet paper incident happened in the country - (one of the neighbor's said that the backyard's are dark in the area and people are frightened of predators)

Don't let your kids out on Devil's Night!
