There seems to be Star Wars political allusions popping up everywhere at the moment. No, I don't mean the Michael Moore = Jabba the Hutt. That's waaay too obvious.
First Latham reckons he's Luke Skywalker, and Howard's Darth Vader. Well, Latham, I have news for you. In their first encounter, Vader kicked Skywalker's puny, whinging white arse. Is that the correlation you were shooting at?
Now Americans are seeing parallels between John Kerry and C3PO.
My contribution. Jar Jar Binks = Jacques Chirac.
No, it doesn't need to make sense - but the French loved Jerry Lewis...

My motif selections are a far better ones.
"Stone Cold" Mark Latham Vs. Hulk Howard
"Stone Cold" the swearing, flip the bird, wildman. Hulk the defender of the people wrapped in his flag.
Think, if I was promoting the election, it'd make mega bucks!! Whatever we make becomes tax cuts!!
I'm just waiting for a seconder.
