It’s ScuttleButton Time! – 6/6/15

As Martin Niemoller is rumored to have said, “I’d rather have a ridiculously easy ScuttleButton puzzle than no ScuttleButton puzzle at all.”  With that in mind, here is this week’s offering.

Show/Hide This Week's ScuttleButton Answer

I Am a Hill for Governor Volunteer — John Hill, a Texas Democrat, finished sixth in the 1968 primary to succeed the retiring John Connally.

All Ayes for Lori/National Committee Woman — Other than the fact that Lori is a Republican, I don’t know anything more about this button.

Clint Eastwood Mayor/Carmel, CA., 1986 — He was elected without having to debate an empty chair.

10 Points for Obama — 2008 button put out by the U.S. Conference of Mayors.

So, when you combine Hill + Lori + Clint + Ten, you kinda get …

Hillary Clinton.  The woman who is challenging Lincoln Chafee for the 2016 Democratic presidential nomination.

And the randomly-selected winner is … Bob Pownall of Boise, Idaho.  Bob wins the coveted Political Junkie button.
