Hey Bob ... THIS is Pikes Peak.

In case you were wondering ... THIS is Pikes Peak ... and it is located in Colorado Springs, Colorado.

Pikes Peak, as seen from Colorado Springs

Read More about the "The Republican U.S. Senate candidate [Bob Schaffer] on Wednesday [who] unveiled his first television ad, with the theme "Colorado is my life." "I proposed to my wife, Maureen, on top of Pikes Peak," Schaffer says in the ad, gesturing behind him as the couple's picture appears with a snow-covered mountain in the background.

The mountain pictured in the ad, though, isn't Pikes Peak; it's Mount McKinley in Alaska."

LOL.

(What is almost funnier, is that the Democrats jumped all over this error ... but misspelled "Pikes Peak" in all their banter.)
