oberweis says he's running for governor in 2008
-chicago sun-times

james oberweis, as we know, is the owner of oberweis dairy, home to some of the best ice cream this side of the mason-dixon line. what i think is really funny, though, is the following quote in the sun-times article:

he drew a sharp contrast between his ideas... and those of Gov. Rod Blagojevich, whom he said "looks at business as though it is a cow to be milked for more and more taxes."

a cow to be milked for more taxes? doesn't oberweis think of anything besides dairy??

i can only suppose that his slogan will be "moo-ve over for oberweis!" or "i scream, you scream, we all scream... for oberweis."

on a related note, isn't gubernatorial a fantastic word?
