It’s the last move of a quirky campaign. Art Small, the democrat who ran against Senator Charles Grassley and sang in one of his own campaign commercial, has put his campaign equipment up for sale on E-Bay. Small is selling a campaign R-V and mobile office, a coffee maker, a FAX, phones and a refrigerator.”An instant campaign kit for any ambitious politician,” Small says. You can find the lengthy web-address on the Radio Iowa website (it’s http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5531497312). Small has even thrown in an F-E-C rule book, yard signs and parade candy to sweeten the deal. As you may know, Small’s campaign slogan was “Think Big — Vote Small” — and whomever buys the campaign package on E-Bay will get a copy of his issue statements as well as the other loot.
