Clinton would have LOVED this

Yesterday:

Apparently, this is what Norfolk, VA feels is an effective way of selling itself to potential vacationers.

In the distance, you might notice a girl dressed up as a mermaid. You could have had your picture taken with her, if you'd been so inclined. I didn't, but I'm not going to lie: I was a little bit tempted. Getting my picture taken with a mermaid in front of the White House doesn't seem like the sort of opportunity that's ever going to present itself again.

Now, some might say that, given the location, a display like is in poor taste. I couldn't disagree more. Personally, I think the founding fathers would have approved. In fact, I think most of them probably would have left their wives for the girl on the right in a heartbeat, assuming that the Segway didn't freak them out, and they had her burned as a witch.
