Obama funeral home cutout a big hit


Whew, it's not as bad as the headline made me think, but why would anyone go and knock on a funeral home door just to have their pic taken with a cardboard Obama?

ELIZABETH, N.J., Jan. 14 (UPI) -- The operators of a funeral home in Elizabeth, N.J., say a cardboard cutout of U.S. President-elect Barack Obama is a huge hit with visitors.

Kim Nesbitt-Good said she and her husband, Teddy, always let visitors take a look at their life-size Obama cutout or take a photograph with the cardboard creation, The Star-Ledger newspaper of New Jersey reported.

"We've had about 500 people take pictures with him," she said of The Nesbitt Funeral Home's cardboard cutout. "Teddy always lets them in."
