A Better Butter Sculpture

The idea of the King of Pop in butter at the Iowa State Fair melted faster than s'mores-on-a-stick on an August afternoon. Iowans voted by about two-to-one against the idea of a butter sculpture of Michael Jackson in the fair's online poll. So now what? A fair spokeswoman said there were no plans to put someone or something else in butter. But, hey, the fair listened to Iowans once. Why not give them another choice?

A few ideas...Applington-Parkersburg's former football coach Ed Thomas? An unemployed Iowan (in light of the economy right now)? Ashton Kutcher? John Bachman? Barack Obama?

Just a few off the top of my head. Who do you think deserves the butter praise?
