While Robert Reich today endorsed Barack Obama, that can’t remove the sting of an old friend going over to the other side. According to the New York Times: Dr. Pepper is a Republican. I’m not sure if this means I should change my soda of choice, or if the good doctor simply needs a pep talk.Sure, I understand the siren song of bourbon and stuffed crust pizza, which the Times also outed as card-carrying members of the GOP. They may seem sexier than white wine and Absolut and organic risotto. Yet can stretchy cheese and dark liquor offer the left-leaning quirkiness, the irony, that certain je ne sais quoi that is, after all, also your special appeal?
Dr. Pepper, come back to us!
