The RNC, picking up on Obama’s suggestion that tire inflation would offer as much energy savings as further drilling, mocked the Democrat by sending around tire gauges to political reporters.

Now the DNC has their own prop: a stress-reliever in the shape of an oil barrel.

The black barrel’s insignia reads: ExxonMcCain ‘08"

In their package to reporters, the Dems also included bumper stickers and a pin with the same message. 

The news-you-can-use arrived on the same day McCain is talking about energy atop an oil rig in the Gulf.
