Oh Sweet

Obama's going to be the guy replacing Rakshasa as president. Sweet! Only non-crooked politician to come out of Illinois since that cybernatic clone of Lincoln. Why is it stuff like that only happened in the 90's anyway?

I dunno, though. We've never had a Hawaiian President before. Knowing our luck he's going to sell us out to some volcano god or a giant shark or something.

Oh well. If he does, let a hero deal with it. I did my good deed of my career. No way am I dealing with P.A.N.I.C. again if I can help it.

I only wish they'd stop calling me. Don't they know I have important bedside moping to do?

Wow

That was...unexpected. Was anyone else blinsided by today's news? Seriously, Carmichael's dead in the water. Hell, his whole party's gonna go under. There's no way a viable, non third-party candidate's gonna show up now to oppose Jonathan Rake. Not that he could really be opposed beforehand.

And, of course, I'm suspicious. Evidence just pops up a couple months before the election that ties pretty much everyone within three degrees of separation of Carmichael and his Cabinet in with recent, not old hat, ties to Op. Mayhem. After that speech he gave a couple years ago, you know, the "Second Chance" speech, there's no way he can salvage himself. Hell, he'll be lucky not to have been impeached and sent to jail by election day.

I think, scratch that, I'm nearly positive he was framed. Whoever framed me and is trying like hell to get Rake elected, framed his opponent. The only real question I have is why. Rake's gonna win. I, hell, America has known this for over a year. Why go to all these lengths to make him not only the Good Guy but the Only Guy? It's overkill. It's political genocide.

Without a doubt, Rake is going to win the election. Whoever's watching over him is making sure of it. Does he even know?

It has to have something to do with the time Rake and Shasta went missing. I've stopped believing in coincidences.

More Politics

Y'know, Brian Shasta has to be the one person made vice presidential candidate out of pity. I mean, as a senator he screwed up in pretty much every way he could--I understand he's a nice guy, but, really, politics ain't for nice guys. Hell, Rake probably kicks puppies when the cameras are off. And

Okay, there's someone knocking on my door. This is odd because I live at the bottom of a great lake.

Alright, gonna have to cut this short. Captain Visigoth and Mechanor just came by. They want to go out drinking.

I have a feeling this is gonna end in tears. And fire. Tears and fire.

My Feelings on Presidential Candidate Jonathan Rake

So, I'm pretty sure Rake's going to win the presidential election this year. Which isn't really news, given that he's insanely popular. He's a slick man, bright too. More than once Carmichael was literally stopped mid-sentence stuttering by Jon's quick wit and common-sense ideas.

I'd be more happy with Rake if I wasn't a supervillain. As far as anyone I know can tell, Rake's squeaky clean, and that initiative he's proposing to use captured parahuman technology for the advancement of the US....I just know they're going to try to steal an Incinerator tank from me. The news is hailing him as the most anti-supervillain candidate in history. He's definitely the first politician I've heard of that's strictly anti-villain...he's been singing the praises of Osiris, the Scarlet Sorceress, even that wierdo Judgement, saying what they and other superheroes are doing is good for the nation.

I have a feeling life's going to get a whole lot harder when, not if, he wins in November. Oh well, back to this weather machine. More on my rampage once I've reverse engineered this baby.
