Been There, Done That, Got The T-Shirt

The Official Joe Biden Big Effin Deal T-Shirt, that is.


Organizing for America, the grassroots arm of the Democratic National Committee (DNC), are selling the shirts for $25 a piece in an effort to fundraise off Biden's slip that healthcare's passage was a "Big F****** Deal."

So far, so good, writes spokesperson Brandi Hoffine. The Democrats have sold out a significantly sized first shipment of the shirts.

"We started selling them yesterday and sold out of our initial order overnight," Hoffine wrote in an e-mail. "They are selling faster than ipads will this weekend."
Now that's just cute.  Plus it's driving the GOP insane with anger (not like that's hard.)  Hey, if you know you have Joe Biden, and you know he's going to stay stupid crap on a regular basis, you need to have a process for marketing it.  It's a natural resource.  Exploit it.  GOP raised money off of "You Lie!"  Dems raise money off of "This is a big f'ckin deal."

Well played, DNC.  Well played.
