I think what's weird here is that they try to do the "modern" stripes and star-eye on a realistic elephant silhouette, and the result — all those organic curves clashing with geometric overlays — is, like the repubs themselves, a nasty old unbalanced traditional thing trying to fool everyone into thinking it's hip and modern. Fuck them and fuck their stoopid logo.

And why is it blue? Are they trying to usurp the blue from dems? Is this the new trick to steal another presidential election? When CBS lights up all the blue states as going to the dem candidate are the republicans going to say, "oh no, we swtiched to blue, didn't you get the memo?"

Is most of America dumb enough to fall for this?

What a train wreck.
1. Too many colors for a logo like that.
2. stripes on elephant look like tire treads (did the elephant get run over and now it's standing tall and proud? Huh?)
3. star-eye is too close to the X-symbol eye symbolizing death.

I hope they adopt this logo for the national party.

Heather — I think you may be on to something: this is another Wicked Republican Plot to steal the '08 election!! Yikes!

Hopefully I am completely gone from the Twin Cities when this mess takes place.

Allen, Cleveland pushed hard for this about eighteen months ago. I can't tell you how happy I am we aren't hosting. It just shows you how afraid the republicans really are; Minnesota was the first state to pass non-discrimination legislation for transsexuals and was on the forefront of gay and lesbian equality. Cleveland is also a traditionally liberal city, claiming Carl Stokes as the first black mayor of a major American city. The Reps. are clearly worried they are losing their base and think that they can expand their sphere of influence by inserting themselves in traditionally democratic areas. I think you should stay and poop on the Giuliani/Romney parade.

This is what comes of having an don't ask don't tell policy applied to your advertising budget.

Does the phallic-shaped trunk represent the white GOP male's desire for other elephants and their trunks?

Is this beast storming off to the restrooms at the Minneapolis-St. Paul airport?

Maybe it's rearing back on its hind legs to get more leverage as he prepares to squeeze under a stall there.

Notice how its tail sweeps back into its own back end.

I think they knew exactly what message they were trying to communicate with their masses.

Yeah, it's got kinda a wide stance….

I LOVE IT!

Wait, Minneapolis? You're kidding, right?! ahahahahahahahh

I LOVE IT! It stands (literally) for everything the insane Republicans hate.

It's Blue. The color of the Dems. It's walking upright. Are we witnessing Evolution? Drugs are clearly legalized. Just look at its eyes.

One thing does confuse me. What's with the tread marks across its back????

Republicant's are Accountants and Lawyers and have as much creativity as a Saltine, no offense to Saltines. So what do you expect

Are they going to hold their convention in the bathroom stalls at the Minneapolis airport?
