Team Obama must be sighing in collective relief this weekend.

Pee Wee Herman, the alter ego of actor Paul Reubens, has endorsed President Barack Obama in a typically colorful column over at The Huffington Post.

For me, this election is like the choice between store-bought ice cream (maybe even diet Ice Milk), and mouth-watering, homemade, unbelievably delicious frozen custard. How did I arrive at this conclusion?This week President Obama was working hard alongside Governor Bruce Springsteen of New Jersey (boy, he sure has gained some weight) to help the people most in need.

It struck me that the choice I’ll be making Tuesday is like going for store-bought ice cream when it’s obvious what you really need is homemade frozen custard. President Obama is like the delicious frozen custard you’d get at Kohr’s. President Obama has the 1.4 percent egg yolk solids needed to run this country.
