You see, Haggar's problem is he doesn't know how to delegate responsibility.
Police Officer #1: There's a report of a beating in Downtown Metro. We'd better get going.
Police Officer #2: Nah, don't bother. Haggar's taking care of it.
PO1: What, the mayor?
PO2: Hey, don't ask me, man. It's all a part of his hands-on crime policy. Whenever the police get a call, Haggar rips off his shirt and walks down to deal with it himself.
PO1: Wait... so what do we do?
PO2: Traffic infractions, mostly. Sometimes he'll let us take down a jaywalker or a litterer.
PO1: What? That's it?
PO2: Yeah, Haggar's really serious about crime. Really. Serious.
PO1: But that's... I mean, it's like he doesn't trust us to do our job! And doesn't he have better things to do, being mayor and all?
PO2: I think you've hit on the reason Metro City is going to shit, my friend. But that's just the half of it.
PO1: What?
PO2: Since Haggar took office, the number of lawsuits we've gotten has tripled. The man's answer to everything is to beat the crap out of it. Some punk talks back to him? He beats the crap out of him. Car got parked in a red zone? He beats the crap out of it.
PO1: Geez.
PO2: Sometimes when he's bored, he goes around beating up trash cans. And here's the wierd part of it - after he's done beating up the trash can, if any food fell out of it, he eats it!
PO1: Eeiw!
PO2: The guy gets catered lunches with the Governor, but dumpster turkey is his food of choice.
PO1: Why the hell did we elect this guy?
PO2: Well... he was the Republican candidate, and the Democrat was pro-gay marriage. And you know what that means in a red state...
PO1: Wait, so instead, we voted for a guy who beats up cars and eats food out of dumpsters?

Hmm.
If one were so inclined, and had the 'shop skills, one could take the poster for Wexler, color his eyes blue, replace the logos with little flying-saucer-y things, and change the name to Denton...
Caspian I like how you were able to throw in a stab at how most voters will stick to their respective sides (democrat/republican) most of the time simply because of the basic stances on gay marriage/abortion/(insert touchy subject here).

Lastly, BioShock. (couldn't find good pictures of Ryan or Atlas, so I improvised.)
YES.
By the way, is that Walt Disney? I always though of Ryan as a satanic, Randian version of Walt.
I didn't think Walt would fit, so I slightly warped a picture of Vincent Price. Ryan has the personality and slightly "I own everyone!" kinda feel and that felt more like a Price thing. Also, they looked very similar so I thought that would be a better adaption. The bottom picture of Atlas was a real stretch, that is a picture of (mostly untouched) Orson Wells.
Now I kind of want a black and white Bioshock movie.
Movie, book, posters, complete soundtrack. I don't care, I want it.
How did you pick Atlas's look?
You never really see him up close until he turns into an actual Atlas.
These posters looked very close to the kind of posters in and for Citizen Kane. I just scrolled threw some pictures and found a picture of Wells that looked most like Atlas from the short wave picture. Also, give me about 1 hour and I will make a BioShock movie poster out of thin air!
I was waiting for a Samus Aran 08 poster to pop up so I could go
But I guess with her terrible backstory being leaked all over the news networks she's going to drop out soon anyway.

oh oh oh, wait. You said video game elections.
My mistake.
If one were so inclined, and had the 'shop skills, one could take the poster for Wexler, color his eyes blue, replace the logos with little flying-saucer-y things, and change the name to Denton...
...and it would be just as good.
-good stuff
I wholeheartedly approve of this message.
The judge might vote for him.
Depending on who he's up against.
"The right fit for America!"
"Clearing the mess left by GWB!"

Give them time, and they'll put more resources towards the space program.
Don't know if this'll break h-scroll or not. Guess we'll find out.
Yes, the slogans suck. There is a reason no one has ever picked my to design signage for anything more important then a bakesale.
"No spin - we don't even have a physics engine!"
"We've spent our entire life serving. Now, we're ready to serve America."
And as for the "nothing gets by us" slogan, it sure as hell beats "Fool me once, shame on... shame on you. Fool me, we can't get fooled again."
What is an American?!
A miserable little pile of votes!
But enough talk! Have a bumper sticker!
... I just wanted to join in...
You two have made my night complete.
Until they go in the red or FY'08 is over.
Sorry Henroid.
