Can someone please explain to me

what is the deal with presidential candidates flipping pancakes???

I don't want them cooking for me.

I want them to represent me.

2. I feel confident knowing the man with the finger on the button can cook...

some pancakes... :D

3. Very risky business,

flipping pancakes. The candidate must have nerves of steel. By the way, I didn't see any of them making the batter. :-)

4. I said the same thing

How weird and awkward? Why whould they do that? They look plain silly.
If you have to pitch in pass ...out napkins..bus tables!?!? Yikes!!

5. haaaaaaaaaaaaa!

did you see the clip of Gary Bauer, either falling off a stage, or into a curtain, or something, while trying to flip cakes somewhere on the stump, during the previous selection?

[CatWoman]

6. yeah, I remember that

ROFL!! Made my day.

And the news shows kept showing it over and over.

:D

7. I'll bet they are sick of it as well.

One of them should have the guts to say, "Say no to flipping pancakes."

8. Photo Op? Kissing babies too.

I hope I never see Bush do either of those things or I will puke.

9. Flipping those Jacks can make a diff.

Gary Bauer was supposed to be our President but for a fall from the stage while tossing them discs around in the air. They showed that on the tube no end, poor thing. They will bury him with a spatula in hand.

10. Maybe the symbolism is they're serving food and they will be serving

Maybe the symbolism is they're serving food to citizens and they will be serving good policies once elected?

Or they could be demonstrating that they're not above physical labor.
