Breakfast Cereals Go Political With Cap'n McCains and Obama O's

Now, usually, I don't like to talk politics early in the morning. But for this I'll make an exception. Check out fake Obama and McCain breakfast cereals—like the Obama O's pictured here. These limited editions can be yours for only $39 a box. Not exactly a bargain. But if you go to the Web site, you can hear jingles for each one and vote for your favorite.

Amazing. Now if only they had Palin and Biden toaster strudel, I'd be confident that our country is on the right track.

About the author Kim Conte

has shoes that make people stop her on the street and ask "Where did you get those?" but it doesn't work for taxi cabs as she was hit by one ... and lived to tell the tale. She has more freckles than Lohan but way less attitude. And she's a fierce cook with tons of recipes to share -- and wishes she could share some with Bourdain.

So fun! I'd like to send some of each as gifts, but they are definitely too pricey!

That is funny and disturbing on soo many levels, I guess they are trying to reach out to the younger crowd and what way better to do that than through their morning meal. LOL
