Hmmm......
How about a big batch of taffy because it's long and drawn out and begins with Iowa and corn (syrup).
Linda C

Laughed out loud at your reply Linda :)

LOL LIndaC!

You get my vote!

LOL Linda. Now I want to make some taffy. Haven't made any since the nieces and nephews were younger. Love me some molasses taffy. mmmm..

Linda for President. No nonsense and tells it like it is. Well maybe just enough nonsense sometimes.. smiles.

I agree, that cheese cake would be perfect, especially since you are voting for Obama. Something decadent, chocolately, smooth and rich. If you had been a McCain supporter I would have suggested something that was nutty, bitter or sour.

Ann

I'm not feeling at all creative tonight...may I come to your house for election night dessert?! Your cheesecake sounds perfect.

/tricia

Tricia, come on! I'm sure they'll be plenty...

Ann, your suggestion of nutty, bitter and sour for McCain is too funny!

Linda, I loved your reply. Instead of taffy, maybe I should try caramel, so I can pull out some fillings at the same time? Heaven knows, my nerve endings already feel exposed, and it looks like we're going to have to c-h-e-w on some things for quite a long while.

... let them eat crow!

Add 'Dressed Mousse' to the McCain menu

Well, there is Jefferson Davis Pie, Martha Washington Cake, Mamie Eisenhower Fudge, Washington Pie (named for George), President Tyler's Pudding Pies, Robert E. Lee Cake, Dolley Madison Cake and from the New England of the 1800's, Election Day Cake.

Yes, there are actual recipe for all of these! My choice would be the Pudding Pies (sort of like a chess pie, I have made these) or the Robert E. Lee Cake (lemon cake with lemon curd filling and coconut frosting - yum!).

How about Mutton dressed as Lamb?
Not dessert but....

Obama is said to like pie, especially sweet potato pie. When he came to our county, his advance people ordered pies from a local pie bakery that grows their own organic produce for their pies. Now, I'm not suggestin' any outcomes, but I'm just sayin' . . . sweet potato pie might be a good choice.

All I know is that I think am too full for dessert, I've had enough! But if I were to have any room left it would be sweet potato pie, maybe even a double helping.

how about a nice raspberry fool ?

I will be working the phone banks at my current Congressman's campaign HQ all day on Tuesday so I will be taking a large crockpot of cream of chicken-mushroom-barley and spinach soup and bite sized ham salad sandwiches as my food contribution.

You could also have a "cherry dump cake" on hand, just in case you need a 2ond choice.

Mudslide Cake to show America sliding like an avalanche down into Socialism if you-know-who is elected. Get ready to share your wealth and your Constitution shredded.

This is totally tongue in cheek, understand, trying not to be Red or Blue, but how about this for a concept:

1. Use your money to buy the ingredients for the cheesecake.
2. Use your learning and skills and equipment to make the cheesecake.
3. Depending on who gets elected, what tax bracket you're in, and what state you live in, 'give' anywhere from 20 to 70 percent of the cake to the Government to satisfy their cheesecake needs, and so they can distribute a tiny portion of the amount of cheesecake they collect to those entities and persons they deem to be needful of cheesecake.

(The word 'give' is in quotations because such a compulsory transfer is not 'giving' in any rational sense of the word.)

You could call it 'Fairness Cake'....

I vote for cheesecake! My favorite....

AMEN to both Earl and Arley ! ! !

Baked Alaska. It's all fluff on the outside, ice cold on the inside and very quickly baked. It had very little substance and you can't count on it in a pinch.

Still laughing at the Linda's taffy comment.

My vote would be for Black and White Cookies.

Here's my vote: Baked Alaska and Humble Pie.

You guys are too funny!
