In honour of the upcoming elections, I have (with the help of Icon Queen watcher_shadow thankyouthankyouthankyouinnitpretty?) changed the theme of my journal.

I would have liked to do up a little theme promoting my candidate of choice, but . . . here's the thing. Much as I can't stand Bush, Kerry's no prize, either. As in all elections and every matter of politics since the dawn of time, he is merely the lesser (although, yes, in this case substantially lesser) of two evils.

But, even though I'll be voting for him, I thought the election could use some spicing up. Let's have a candidate with charm! Charisma! And terrific hair!

Unfortunately, John Edwards is already running for VP. But Rimmer said he'd do it, so, ladies and gentlemen, I present to you:

Second Technician Arnold J Rimmer of the Smeghead Red Dwarf Party. Because he can't possibly muck it up worse than Bush!

. . . right?

Who's his VP? Who's his VP?

Who's his VP? Who's his VP? You dare insult our future President by implying that he needs a VP?

*pause*

*looks around warily*

*in hushed voice* He won't choose one! He keeps going on and on about finding the right candidate to "complement his command," whatever the smeg that means.

But you know what? That's okay, because no one is willing to run with him anyway! I can't tell you how many times in the last twenty-four hours I've heard, "But what if we win? Then I'd be stuck serving with him for four years!"

Honestly, if I'd - *pause* What? Coming! Sorry, campaign duty calls. Look, this is between you and me, yeah? I don't - YES, I'M COMING!! - don't want any of this getting back to him. Gotta dash!

And I think we all know what his campaign song would be...
