(Reuters)Dear Presidential Turkey Tot,Welcome to Washington. The president actually seemed a little wistful at the thought that this would be his final turkey pardon. Sometimes people give Abraham Lincoln or Harry Truman credit for starting this whole turkey pardon thing. We know you’re worried about the future of the turkey pardon under the new administration. All the polling had indicated that Tater would be elected the official presidential turkey, but last-minute Twitter voting put you, Tot, on top.
