I agree. Very funny and thinking out side of the box for sure. Just might be what this area needs.

That's very funny. Just so long as he doesn't put his opponents in the ground under the tombstones.

people need to learn how to relax and take a joke. laughter is the best medicine. in my experience, the most anal people who are "offended" about everything are also the ones who are usually guilty of real infractions.

AGREED, and kudos to the opponent with the good-humored riposte.

Raspberries to the 'complainer'.
No sense of humor, and running for public office?
Good luck with that.

I think that it's great to see a sense of humor in a political leader. I would vote against the complainer.

The tombstone decorations are something that my family puts up every year. I believe the candidates that complained originally believed that I would be attacked for it.

To Connie M. It is not just state wide. I have received comments from Georgia, Denver and California. The NY Daily News has a poll up in addition to their story about it. Right now that poll is 75% say it was in the proper halloween spirit and 25% say it was in poor taste.

I have links to various media links on my website.
