Hey Bob ... THIS is Pikes Peak.

In case you were wondering ... THIS is Pikes Peak ... and it is located in Colorado Springs, Colorado.

Pikes Peak, as seen from Colorado Springs

Read More about the "The Republican U.S. Senate candidate [Bob Schaffer] on Wednesday [who] unveiled his first television ad, with the theme "Colorado is my life." "I proposed to my wife, Maureen, on top of Pikes Peak," Schaffer says in the ad, gesturing behind him as the couple's picture appears with a snow-covered mountain in the background.

The mountain pictured in the ad, though, isn't Pikes Peak; it's Mount McKinley in Alaska."

Just a TINY mistake.  If I remember correctly, Pikes Peak is about 14000 feet - McKinley's only 6000 feet higher.  Anyone could have made that mistake!  Whoops ...

That's pretty funny!  Wonder if a staffer somewhere just grabbed a snow-covered mountain for the back-drop and thought no one would notice??  Maybe Pats Peak grew a little since he was last there......


Good eyes Miss Mariana!!   ;-)

What a freakin moron!  Attention to details!  This is what represents us, it's really a sad state of affairs, the truly intelligent would never run for office.
