What's an OHP cost? A ton, tops? So if I give him, say, $250, will he get me the Starmaster ZMP? That'd get him my vote. If I had one.
Anyway, be fair to the guy - in the current financial turmoil, it's easy to slip up in money terms by four orders of magnitude or more. I've cocked up by three myself recently, getting my millions and billions confused. (In my defence (and his) it was a context where you'd normally expect millions but billions had turned up.)
Got to admire the guy's chutzpah, too, simultaneously campaigning as the Candidate of Experience and against the Federal debt that's recently topped $10 trillion. (Or some other figure with a lot of zeroes.)
