Holy Relic or Future DNA Evidence?  

I swear to God I am not making this up. Click the link if you don't believe me, it was still up at 1:30 p.m. CDT 8-1004. Do be sure and read the fine print (noted in bold below for your convenience) before bidding on this bit of political ephemera:

(via eBay, thanks to the ever-invaluable ArchPundit:)

Napkin with sweat from Ambassador Alan Keyes' forehead
Blotted from Keyes' brow at Senate announcement 8-8-04

85 bids (US $0.08 starting bid)

Current bid: US $465.00


GOP Senatorial Candidate Keyes was sweating profusely after his stem-winder speech and the sweat was collected from a napkin at approximately 3:02 pm Central Time just outside the Wellington Restaurant in Arlington Heights, Illinois, under the watchful eye of multiple news reporters including multiple television cameras.

Current plans are to donate proceeds from this sale to the Keyes for Senate campaign, pending a legal opinion. Due to Federal Election Campaign Laws, we might have to stop the bidding at $999.99 to avoid having to form a political fundraising committee. This sale is on behalf of an individual Alan Keyes supporter but not affiliated directly with the Keyes' campaign.
