It’s ScuttleButton Time!

It’s an oddly unsettling time, not having baseball to distract us from some of the more upsetting and distressing things going on these days … such as New York Giants football.  Thank goodness for ScuttleButton.

How to Play

Guess the correct phrase and you could be the proud winner of the coveted Political Junkie button!

Show/Hide This Week's ScuttleButton Answer

My Day When I Vote for Willkie — Wendell Willkie was the unsuccessful Republican nominee for president in 1940, losing to incumbent Franklin D. Roosevelt.

Turn Out Light Bulb Johnson! — In the 1964 campaign, Republicans mocked President Lyndon B. Johnson’s suggestion to turn out the lights to save energy.

Re-Elect Nancy/Just Say Yes! — First Lady Nancy Reagan often urged a “just say no” campaign when it came to illegal drugs.

Congressman Vander Veen — Richard Vander Veen, a Michigan Democrat, was elected in Gerald Ford’s old seat in a 1974 special election.
