Little Rock Holiday Inn Presidential Seeks Very Specific Client

Monday, December 8th, 2014

The Little Rock Holiday Inn Presidential seems firmly committed to celebrating the legacy of the 42nd President (and, to a lesser extent, his wife and other Presidents).

But I think they go a bit farther than that.

Paul Martin, my CHL instructor, sent me this picture of an ad for the hotel:

And least you think that picture of the slinky blonde is some sort of mistake, it’s in the hotel’s regular ad rotation:

I can think of two types of women who sit on top of pianos with slinky short dresses with a glass of wine. Since I don’t see her holding a microphone, I’m going to assume she’s the other. Or, as someone said on Paul’s Facebook post: “Wow, an escort and a steak. Who knew a Holiday Inn suite had that kind of concierge service?”

In short: I don’t think the Holiday Inn Presidential just celebrates Bill Clinton, I think they’re actively seeking him as a regular client

Edited to add 7/24/18: See the disclaimer from the current management below. What they failed to explain was that the (now removed) URL previously in this space went to a Fleshlight ad…)

Blanche Lincoln Polling at 27%

Friday, August 20th, 2010

How unpopular are Democrats this year? Incumbent Senator Blanche Lincoln of Arkansas is polling at 27%, compared to Republican challenger John Boozman’s 65%. I’m struggling (and failing) to think of non-indicted incumbent senator polling so low before the general election. As far as I know, Lincoln has not been struck with and personal or bribery scandals. No, she’s just this unpopular for supporting the Obama agenda in general, and for casting the deciding Senate vote in favor of ObamaCare specifically. This year, that’s enough to make you a pariah in red states.
