OH MY GOD and the Sarah Palin doll is past 3k

Hers looks the nicest and she's probably the most interesting person out of the four of them. But still, 3k? I second D123's smiley.

And lol, poor Biden.

Nobody cares about him.

I am glad you find this funny. Please make some suggestions for improvement.

That is disturbing on many levels

While I suppose they will always be Cabbage Patch collectibles, the value of the "loser" dolls will seriously diminish. After all, when is the last time anyone mentioned "presidential losers" like Adlai Stevenson or George McGovern?

Good point.

Wow.

I agree the value of the "loser" doll will certainly fall, but the value of the "winner" doll could also go kaput if the new president ends up sucking at his job.

At least the winnings will go to charity.

I don't know, perhaps a loser doll could go up in value. I think if Obama lost his doll would go up in value.

Yeah a McGovern or Adlai Stevenson doll wouldn't go for much but what about a Dukakis or Ross Perot?

And my question is, why in the f' would you want that Creepy thing?
I find Cabbage Patch dolls very scary

Maybe the people that are bidding want to destroy the doll, like set it on fire and so forth...Or maybe they are using the money they raise to buy them XD

Why is the John McCain doll the only one that is blushing?

And the eyes look un-even....The Palin doll looks the most well made....and the other ones look average.....

Where is the bush doll! I want to buy it

That's what i thought too.

I think that Sarah Palin is the only VP candidate to generate so much interest. At least I don't remember the VP candidates being in the news so much before now.

That's kind of a disturbing image. The dolls must look more creepy as their faces melt off.

heh! ya know, every election that i ever remember i have never known the names of the VP candidates (never really cared till they were in office) untill sarah palin. lol

so even if mcCain and her never get it at least from here on in i can say i knew the name of at least one VP candidate before they possibly were elected.
