The GOP Primary Field in Buffy Villains
Shortly after doing my first video blog post in werewolf form, I came up with a guide to the GOP primary field, expressed in terms of the Buffy villains they most resemble.
Fred Thompson: The Judge
His backers got all excited and made a big effort to assemble him. When they finally put him together, he turned out to be a lethargic mess and didn't accomplish very much.
Mitt Romney: The Mayor
They're both clever and generically slick politicians, programmed to appeal to middle America. I can't watch Mitt without thinking of the Demon Mayor of Sunnydale, and that's what inspired this whole list.
John McCain: The Master
The oldest vampire. Got killed early, but there's some talk about how he might rise again.
Ron Paul: Moloch the Corruptor
He's been around a long time, but he only recently absorbed himself into the internet, where he now has a bunch of overexcited followers who spend too much time online.

Edit: Even if you're not a Buffy fan, it's worth reading the article to see the pictures. Priceless! :rofl:
