This is probably going to fall under news of the bizarre but we felt like this little piece needed a showcase. In reviewing more of the RNC's campaign-assisted spending to (not) elect McCracker and his trusty rogue sidekick, Sarah McPain, there seem to be more odd expenditures. Sure, it is pretty much the nickels and dimes of the campaign funding, but since it is out there, we can absolutely make fun of it all. Hello 1st Amendment (Yes, McPain, that is from the Constitution too!).
This little part just made us snicker. Chocolate elephants, milk, dark and light. What the hell is light chocolate? A musketeer elephant maverick-style? Seriously. If anyone knows what light chocolate is, please do tell. Here is a little snippet from the article:
"That same committee also purchased $3,589 worth of elephant shaped chocolates from a sweet shop in Dallas, Texas. "They bought about 1,000 pieces," said the storeowner. "About eleven ounces a piece in all three types of chocolate: milk, dark and light."
