Limited Edition Presidential Candidates 2008 Doughnuts

by Kjersti Wasiak

LaMar’s Donuts & Coffee have two limited edition donuts as part of their 2008 Presidential Donut Poll promotion. The have made a donut themed for Democrats and Barack Obama supporters and a donut for Republican and John McCain supporters. Now what about us independents who are not supporting either and instead are voting third-party??? Anyways the donuts are cute and the poll is currently at 52% Obama and 48% McCain. It should be interesting to see if the donut poll has any reflection on the actual Presidential poll results.

The doughnut for Barack Obama is a glazed donut shaped like what is supposed to be a donkey, however, it is a pretty pathetic looking donkey in my opinion. It kind of looks like the Democrat Donkey logo, but not quite. It has a blue eye and blue sprinkles on the bottom half. This one for Democrats is being called The Doughbama. The website describes this donut candidate as “Urbane and sophisticated, with a savory sense that yearns to blend with a variety of beverages.”

The doughnut for John McCain is a glazed donut shaped like an elephant and it actually does look like the Republican elephant logo. It has a red eye and red sprinkles on the bottom half. This one for Republicans is being caled The McCandyCain. The website describes this donut candidate as “Succulent and sugary, though with a touch of tartness so as to stand apart from the crowd.”

Want a seasonal donut on Election Day (November 4, 2008) and do not have a LaMar’s nearby, then maybe you have a Krispy Kreme nearby. They are offering free limited edition Patriotic Star doughnuts to those who come in with an “I Voted” sticker on Dlection Day.
