hey all, there's a flickr group called obama pumpkins '08.
if you decide to try your hand at carving an obama pumpkin - go post your masterpiece on flickr!!!
there's nothing on there yet - but get the word out and it would be very cool!

Ok,

How does anyone do this? Have you ever tried to carve a pumpkin? I'm guessing they traced some sort of mold, but still....

Incredible.

That's hilarious... good one!

You'd HAVE to be a vegetable to support McCain.

McCain supporters are like the Night of the Living Dead:

"BRAINS!!!.... I NEED MORE BRAINS!!!"
