I'll bet this guy would have kept that nasty blue dress, too

I'm sorry, but if this is typical of Keyes supporters...



Sweating it out for Keyes
August 10, 2004

A Naperville man has found an interesting way to donate to Republican candidate Alan Keyes -- he's selling a napkin he claims was drenched with the candidate's sweat.

Jerry McGlothlin immediately posted the napkin on eBay this week after attending a rally by the GOP Senate candidate on Sunday.

"I noticed that he was sweating up a storm," said McGlothlin, a local publicist. "So I took a napkin out of my pocket, blotted the sweat from his brow and said, 'Welcome to Chicago.' "

McGlothlin, a Keyes supporter, preserved the napkin in a plastic bag. He plans on donating money from the auction to the Keyes campaign. By late Monday, the auction had been viewed by almost 7,000 people and the price was up to about $250.

"It's historical memorabilia," he said. "It's something worth framing."
