What's Hillary Clinton Doing in Naples?

She's in a nativity scene of course...Okay, back up. Naples is known for its artisans who excel in creating handmade presepi (nativity scenes) - there's a whole street of shops selling presepi the city's Spanish Quarter. Each year the offerings get more creative and this year, Gennaro di Virgilio made figurines of American presidential candidates Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, John McCain and Rudy Giuliani. Apparently, the late opera great Luciano Pavarotti is another popular figurine this year. (Photo by Reuters)
