Normally politics and gaming don’t mix well,and usually, gaming takes a beating. But this is
a bit different.
A friend of mine who’s a diehard Obama supporter and a constant reader of political blogs
pointed me in the direction of a post/comment on the liberal blog Daily Kos by a user
named LarsThorwald. In his post, Lars put together a little parody of “Still Alive” concerning
Hillary’s campaign.
I laughed a bit, mostly because I don’t like Hillary, her flip-flopping on violence in games
and her support on that issue of Joe Lieberman, or just her attitude towards… well,
anything. And for the record, yes, I am an independent.
But anyways, here’s the song. Enjoy:
This was a triumph.
I'm making a note here:
HUGE SUCCESS.
It's hard to overstate
my satisfaction.
Hillary Clinton
We say what we must
because we can.
For the good of all of us.
Except the voters for him.
But there's no sense crying
over every mistake.
You just trust in Mark Penn
till you run out of cake.
There were elections that were run.
And occasionally we won.
Politically, I am
still alive.
I'm not even angry.
I'm being so sincere right now.
Even though you broke my heart.
And beat me.
And took all my Supers.
And thrust a big knife deep in my back.
As it twist it hurt because
I was so happy for you!
All our polling data
made a microtrend line.
But we're out of money.
Terry's counting each dime.
So I'm glad I got burned.
Think of all the things we learned
I'm politically
still alive.
Go ahead to Denver.
I think I prefer to stay inside.
Maybe you'll find someone else
for Vee-Pee.
Maybe Ferraro...
THAT WAS A JOKE, HA HA, FAT CHANCE.
Anyway the Senate's great.
It's so prestigious and stuff.
Look at me still talking when there's so much to do
When I look to November
it makes me glad I'm not you.
And I've better things to run
And I'm paying off my loans
to some vendors, but I'm
still alive.
And believe me I am still alive.
Junior Senator and I'm still alive.
I feel fantastic and and I'm still alive.
While your losing I'll be still alive.
Two-thousand twelve and I'll be still alive.
Still alive.
Still alive.
