Zazzle Blog

This blog post is about 3 things:

1. With the 2012 Presidential Election around the corner, politics is a great theme for creating stores and products.
2. I watched the Republican debate last night in hopes of finding ideas that sellers could cash in on.
3. The third… uhm, the uhh… Let’s see. The third one, I can’t…

If you missed the debate last night, no need to worry! The following graph shows the percentage of speaking time per candidate. Mitt Romney was given considerably more chances to speak than any other candidate,  including one of Zazzle’s bestsellers, Ron Paul.

Although Mitt Romney was under the spotlight for most of the debate, Rick Perry is the candidate that everyone is talking about. The internet is making sure that this mega-gaffe by Rick Perry will be talked about for quite some time. Here is the clip proving a lot can happen within 53 seconds:

“The third agency of government I would do away with – education, uhh the, commerce, and let’s see, I can’t. The third one I can’t. Sorry. Oops.”
- Rick Perry

We took a look at the Marketplace to see if Sellers were inspired by this opportunity and we have to say… Zazzlers are some of the most creative and adept people at creating humor infused designs.

Did you watch the debate last night? Can anyone tell me how many times Herman Cain said “9-9-9″? Share your comments and creative political themed gifts below!
