The Political Business Cycle

I am supposed to be voting for governor of Virginia today, no?  I just read the following promise from a presidential candidate in Asia:

Every Sri Lankan home will be gifted with a high milk-yielding cow from Kerala which could be expected to yield 10 liters to 16 liters of milk every day. Even families who live in flats, who could make suitable arrangements to look after a cow, will receive a gift of cow.

The post from IndiaUncut also lists their "previous posts on cows."
