"ron paul" news and stories

Every time I get on the phone with my mom these days, we find ourselves in a political conversation, weighing the pros and cons of the candidates running in the Democratic primary (I come from a long line of registered Dems). Neither of us have made up our minds, mostly because we're still mourning John Edwards' exit from the race. However, for the rest of you out there who have made up your minds, you can tell the world which candidate you're supporting with a kitchen apron. Both the Hillary and Obama aprons are available on Cafepress.

There aren't as many good aprons for the Republican candidates out there. The Kitchn (where I learned about all these cool aprons) featured one sporting Romney's (although as of yesterday, he is out of the race) face as well as one that pairs New York City Mayor Bloomberg with Ron Paul. That picture is after the jump.

Today is Super Tuesday, have you voted yet? Note: please don't try to vote if your state isn't actually holding a primary today.

I was wondering if there are any cocktails named after the remaining candidates, so I did a little digging. Here's a Ciroc Obama cocktail, which includes Ciroc vodka, lemonade, and Chambord. It promises a change...to your taste buds!

I can't find any drinks for Hillary Clinton (though her favorite drink is tea), John McCain, Ron Paul, or Mike Huckabee, so if you have any recipes, let us know in the comments. (Mitt Romney is Mormon, so he'll probably have water or something caffeine-free.)

Drink of the Week has a list of what drinks our Presidents liked. Gerald Ford liked a gin and tonic; Herbert Hoover drank Martinis, and Warren Harding liked everything.
