‘Obamica’ and ‘McCippah’
The Seattle Post-Intelligencer discovers a new way Jews can support their candidate of choice:
Forget about yard signs, buttons and bumper stickers.What better way to support your favorite presidential candidate then donning a kippah, the traditional skull cap worn by Jewish men.
At least that's the idea of Shmuel Tennenhaus, who after quitting his day job at a Bellevue Internet company two months ago decided to plunge head first into the world of political kippahs.
The first products: the "Obamica" and "McCippah." Both sell for $15.95 on Tennenhaus' new Web site, VanityKippah.com.

I just happened to stumble on your blogs as i was looking for an Obamica for my partner, I saw a guy wearing on of the Obamica’s at the West Seattle Farmers Market. I’m also a frequent Kippah wearer, even though I am a Reform Jew, and found some of your blogs hilarious! Why dont they carry more Kippot at stores like urban outfitter’s and such! =-P Keep up the good work!
