Still looking for a creative Halloween costume for your little precious?

Salon contributor Dan Savage, the sex advice columnist and editor-in-chief of the "The Stranger," and co-writer David Schmader suggest these truly frightening costume ideas inspired by one hell of a terrifying election season.
