A hero may rise
The Tribune's Paul Rolly reports that Sam Granato, owner of the popular Granato's deli chain and the chairman of the Utah Liquor Control Commission, will announce in June that he's going to run for the U.S. Senate.

Granato, a Democrat, aims to challenge the incumbent Republican, Sen. Robert Bennett, who's up for re-election in 2010 (and may face a stiff primary challenge from Utah Attorney General - and scourge of the BCS - Mark Shurtleff).

One hopes that Granato, as the owner of several delis in the Salt Lake Valley, can at least have some fun with his campaign. To that end, here are a few proposed campaign slogans:
  • A hero for the Senate
  • Join the club
  • He'll slice through red tape
  • Parmesan, not partisan
  • Every party needs a platter
  • Anti-tax, anti-spending, antipasto

Come on, write your own slogan in the comments.
