The Halloween masks have spoken: Obama will be reelected

Don't be surprised if an endless line of Barack Obama-look-alikes ring your doorbell in a few weeks. According to costume retailer Spirit Halloween, their Obama masks are outselling the rubber faced Mitt Romney version 64 percent to 36 percent. "Why do they keep track of things like this?" you might be asking yourself. It's because, according to Spirit CEO and president Steven Silverstein, the candidate whose mask is the biggest seller is the one who wins the election. That's been the case at Spirit for the past four elections, starting when a latex-y Bill Clinton outsold Bob Dole by more than 40 percent. If his company predicts their fifth straight president, they might need to work on a mask of Silverstein himself. [Source]
