I’m tired of all this devisive political stuff. Let’s talk about our favorite Pokemon instead:
I know everybody seems all gung ho about Pikachu, but I think these people are misinformed. Now, Pikachu started his career in Chicago, a city whose political scene is extremely far-left. He knew that, as a Democrat, the best way to make political connections was to hang out with the likes of Bill Ayers and Jeremiah Wright. Now that he has his eyes on the entire country, he has abandoned these people, as most voters find them disgusting.
What this tells me is that Pikachu’s change rhetoric is meaningless. He is the same as every other politician: a louse. This alone does not turn me off to him. After all, in politics, the alternative to a louse is another louse. No, what bothers me is that Pikachu is a louse with nothing good to back it up. I disagree strongly with Slowpoke’s positions on Guantanamo Bay, immigration, and drilling in ANWR, but at least I generally agree with his views on nuclear energy, abortion, and the Iraq War. Also, it’s hard not to respect his actions in Vietnam. If Slowpoke chooses a more consistently conservative Vice President (Geodude comes to mind) I might just vote for him. I was rooting for Geodude in the primaries anyway.
