Election '08 Has Gone to the Dogs ... and Cats, Too!
Monday, October 13, 2008
By fighting like cats and dogs, candidates inspire pet buttons, rap song and video!
KANSAS CITY, Mo., Oct. 13 /PRNewswire/ -- A Kansas City entrepreneur has
sold thousands of her "Bark Obama for President" and "100% McCain9" campaign
buttons for dogs as well as "Demo-cats for Obama" and "McCain is PURR-FECT"
buttons for cats. Sharon Young, owner of PoliticalShop.com, has been
designing and selling campaign buttons since 1992. This year, she came up
with a new hit product, "Patriotic Pets" campaign buttons for pets that clip
directly onto your dog or cat's collar. Young has recently penned a new rap
song and video entitled "Bark Obama vs. McCain9."
"I was watching the candidates fight like cats and dogs on TV one day,"
said Young, who writes songs as a hobby, though mainly in off election years.
"I decided to write a song about Election 2008 as seen through the eyes of
dogs and cats." Originally written as a rock song, Young came across a cute
rap video about a cat called "Mean Kitty" on YouTube.com, and was inspired to
change her tune to rap. She then went about creating a video. "This was my
first video, so I made mistakes and ran over my deadline, but it was really
fun and a great learning experience," said Young, who is releasing the "Bark
Obama vs. McCain9" video just 3 weeks before the election. New dog and cat
button designs are now available based upon characters from the video,
including a winking "Pitbull in Lipstick" button available in both dog and
people sizes, a "Bark Obama-Joe Bite'n" dog button as well as new cat designs.
PoliticalShop.com's Campaign Buttons for dogs, cats and people have been
featured in several major newspapers and magazines as well as a St. Paul,
Minnesota TV news special during the Republican Convention.
FREE button samples are available for media use. FREE CD of "Bark Obama
vs. McCain9" available for airplay. For button samples, CD, Betacam SP video
and/or high-resolution images contact Sharon Young at mvi@PoliticalShop.com.
Please put "Media Request" in subject line or call 1-800-421-0865.
