Having recently played Arkham Asylum (just need to defeat joker), I had 
this thought on the nature of our current run up to the election:

Reporter: We are here today to talk to the candidates of the Godthem (As 
apposed to Gotham), Republican Comity to the Election of Lunatics about 
there feelings towards Two-Face (Obama), who won the last election. Lets 
start with you Joker.

Joker (McCain): Well now, at first, when I lost to him I thought, ah 
well, the games going to be fun anyway. Only, after a while it became 
obvious things where just not going well. I mean, one day he is plotting 
with me, the next he is telling the guards where I stashed the exploding 
whoopee cushions. Its like he is flipping a coin or something!

Reporter: How about you Harley?

Harlequin (Palin): Is my pudding still unhappy with me? I think he is 
still made at me. I thought he would be happy that I was trying to win 
instead this time, but them I thought maybe that would make him mad too, 
but then I thought, you know, maybe it would be good if I did win...

Reporter: Right, lets get back to you later.

Harley: You Betcha.

Reporter: Mr. E.

Riddler (Herman Cain): That's Mr. Nine. They're nines.

Reporter: What are nines?

Riddler: The things on my suit. I keep telling people 999, but no one 
listens. They are nines.

Reporter: Ok, so.. what is your opinion of Two-Face.

Riddler: I will answer your question if you answer mine, "What takes a 
blue pill when hanging out with you in the morning, has three legs in 
the day, and two legs and a stub at night?"

Reporter: I think that is seriously inappropriate, not to mention 
backwards, its the baby who would have the stub, and the old man that 
needs a blue pill. Lets stay on topic, OK.

Riddler: Backwards, backwards! I am never backwards! I am Mr. Nine. And 
I don't get what you think is so inappropriate about my riddle.

Reporter: Moving on...

I haven't decided if Bachman should be a warped Poison Ivy, who hates 
the environment instead, or some twisted version of Catwoman, never mind 
the rest of the insane clown posse. All I do know is, we are all 
wondering why Batman hasn't shown up to put them all back in their cells.
