Rochester's Hillary nutcracker goes national

Rochester has a reputation for its brainprower. It's given rise to Mayo Clinic, IBM and the fastest computer ever. Now there's a new product that Rochester can claim as its very own. It's called the "Hillary Nutcracker," an invention of Rochester businessman Frank Freeman, the 15-year owner of the Little Bear Trading Post in the Apache Mall. The 9-inch-high, plastic likeness of Sen. Hillary Clinton was recently named one of the top 10 "stupidest" hol2007_11_26t161347_450x360_us_holi_3iday gifts for 2007 by the Web site Stupid.com. Just in case you were wondering, the No. 1 ranked stupidest gift was " Mistletoe to Go," an arrangement that comes with a suction cup that attaches to your forehead.
Freeman, who must be hearing ka-chings ringing in ears, recently called the nutcracker a "very intelligent product when you think about it."
"You got to be tough to take on the tough nuts. I think it will become a pro-Hillary product."
