From what folks have told me, and from what I’ve read, history was made last night… Worst. Debate. Ever.

Duh, I could have told you that.. it’s down to two bumbling idiots who have more in common then there are differences. Which is good as neither one will f*ck things up too much. (We’ll leave that up to Congress and their 7% approval rating.)

It reminds me of the Futurama Episode “A Head in the Polls” where the head of Nixon runs against two clones for President of Earth… Transcript below..

[One of the candidates, Jack Johnson, begins the debate.]

JOHNSON
It’s time someone had the courage to
stand up and say: “I’m against those
things that everybody hates”.

[The other candidate is John Jackson.]

JACKSON
Now I respect my opponent. I think
he’s a good man but, quite frankly,
I agree with everything he just said!

FRY
These are the candidates? They sound
like clones. Wait a minute. They are
clones!

LEELA
Don’t let their identical DNA fool you.
They differ on some key issues.

JOHNSON
I say your three cent titanium tax
goes too far.

JACKSON
And I say your three cent titanium
tax doesn’t go too far enough!

FRY
If I were registered to vote, I send
these clowns a message by staying home
on election day and dressing up like
a clown.

There you go! Follow Fry’s advice!

Here is a clip from that episode… I know a few people who would be interested in joining the ‘Dudes for the Legalization of Hemp’ party.
