If the Presidential Vote was Based on Cooking Skills…
I have an idea.
Basically, all politicians are pond scum anyway, and we all know they will say anything to get in office. You may have a favorite for this reason or that, but I am pretty sure that once who ever gets sworn in they will immediately forget about everything they said they were going to do. But..food doesn’t lie. I think that we should vote according to cooking skills and favorite recipes.
So, to begin that….I thought I would post recipes for those things that the top candidates say that they like, or they can cook…or both. Right now, it looks like it is going to be McCain/ Clinton or McCain/Obama .
I have to tell you that as a conservative, and yeah, I am a heavy duty, card carrying conservative… I am moving to Iceland. A cave in Iceland. I will roast reindeer haunch over dried seabird droppings. I seriously don’t trust any of those three. I am looking for the president that will over-turn the trend toward Big Brother and I sure don’t see it in that group.
Anyway. Here are the foods that the top candidates say they can cook:
McCain- Baby back ribs
Obama- Chili
Clinton-”I am a lousy cook, but I can make soft scrambled eggs.”(USAToday)
O.k..what happened to her cookie recipe? I told you..you can’t trust these people.
Over the next few days I will post each of their recipes, and we will take a quick vote for president based on FOOD, people, let’s not be weak willed and base this on politics, o.k.?

Great. Just great. I like Ribs, Chili, and Eggs. Now, if one of them made a mean lasagna, I’d know which way to vote.

moggy- That is the truth, for sure!
pixie- I think, me too, all though, if someone came on the scene with a good philly cheese steak I would have to change my vote.
