Where to party and to maintain the look.

I have a Crush on Obama...

And this is where it all started for the Obama Girl. Who knew that lip synching a song in a tight t-shirt would get this much response?

Getting the "Obama Girl" Look

Well if you want to hang with the Girl and be a groupie, you need to get the look. Here are some tips for getting the most out of your wardrobe.

  • The Shirt. You need a t-shirt that is at least two sizes too small. If you have a young child at home, you can borrow one of theirs.
  • Endowment. If you are not well endowed, then consider using a very padded bra. Rumor has it that Obama Girl is 54 Double “D”…so maybe plastic surgery is the way to go?
  • The Message. The t-shirt needs a political slogans or picture on it. You can use “I have a Crush on Obama” but one of my favorites is “Getting down with Obama”. Check out Pro-World for a huge list of Obama transfers and iron-ons.
  • Bottoms Up. Need to wear tight shorts or boy shorts. If you have a butt, then feel free to put a iron transfers here as well for more impact on your political statement.
  • The Hair. Big, long hair always seems to have the most impact. If you have some gray hairs showing, make sure you dye it or wear a wig.
  • Code Name. “Obama Girls” real name is Amber Lee Ettinger (certainly sounds like a pin-up name) so you need to come up with something cute for your nickname and your pseudo-real name. An example, “Obama Girl Wanna Be” also known in real life as Barbie Hotlitz.
  • Educate yourself. For getting the most up-to-date news, try Comedy Central’s “The Daily Show” or NBC’s “Saturday Night Live”. Just make sure you are not watching a rerun…President Bush Sr and Bill Clinton are no longer president.

McCain Girls

They can’t sing, they don’t have rhythm and they can’t dance, but their heart is all out for presidential candidate John McCain. The “McCain Girls” are raining down and causing some heavy hail damage. Luckily they won’t be in Denver so I don’t need to tell them where to go.
