Barackdown vs. Raw-dham Clinton 2008

Ripped from the headlines: Using WWE Smackdown vs. Raw 2008's create-a-wrestler mode, THQ has done their own take on the Democratic presidential rivalry. They designed characters who sorta resemble presidential candidates Barack Obama and Hillary Rodham Clinton, as long as you're told who they're supposed to be first.

The two politicians run out and play to the crowd, then face off, totally about to wrassle, when the clip unfortunately ends. We wanted to see what Senator Clinton's finishing move was! We wanted to learn the candidates' positions on the issue of "folding chairs: now or later?"

You know, we wouldn't mind fake physical combat as a campaign method. It's not like anyone talks about real policy at debates anyway.

Hopefully they both end up killing each other- McCain dies in a freak accident, and we get a president who DOESN'T suck.

Put this as a real match on PPV in a no-holds-barred match, and I'll buy it without a second thought. Put them in a cage, and I'll fly there.

Hillary used a sitout chokeslam, Obama used the Barack Bottom.

They ran clips of it on CNN this morning.

Eh I almost had an argument about it with this hot chick in my class who is into Hillary (I support Obama) and figured, in the end, just like how McCain's distinctiveness as a Republican will be voided in an effort to appeal to as broad a base as possible, the differences between Hillary and Obama, come November, will be negligible

Luckily, whichever of the three ends up winning it all, come January, someone more competent will be in the white house

McCain may say Iraq War Forever, but at least he actually, ya know, went to war

I can tell you what Hillary's finising move is. The Ball Buster.

And Fatass of Kickassness? Very nicely done.

This reminds me of a college kid who came to the voting polls with a 1-up mushroom shirt. I think he voted Obama but I'm not allowed to interrogate him.

I think hillary's finishing move was the "waste everyone's time"

...where she stays in the ring long after the match is called.

:p
