McCain sez: Look out, Chuck Norris, Rambo's comin' after you. |
Not so fast, Mike Huckabee - John McCain's got his own tough-guy
waiting in the wings.
Sylvester Stallone has a bag full of action-movies-as-politics
clichés, and he's not afraid to use them!
"I like McCain a lot. A lot," Stallone said.
He called the Republican the right character for the times.
"The script that's being written - and the reality - is pretty brutal
and pretty hard-edged like a rough action film, and you need somebody
who's been in that to deal with it."
He continued, "Being president is a tough business, it's like having a
stuntman pretend to punch you in the face over and over again, or
using a rubber knife to fake-stab some guys dressed up as the Viet
Cong. And then you go back to your trailer and someone has forgotten
to put your Bollinger on ice. These are the harsh realities of the
world we live in today."
Of course, McCain was ecstatic to have his very own slab of saggy
man-meat to play with.
Campaigning later in West Palm Beach, McCain told reporters, jokingly:
"Look out, Chuck Norris, Sylvester's comin' after you. He's comin'
after you and he's going to get you. You better run! Chuck, you can
run but you can't hide!"
That's right folks, while the Democratic Party seems poised to
nominate a woman or a black man for the first time in the nation's
history, the Republican nomination has come down to a *****-fight
between Chuck Norris and Sylvester Stallone.
Gee, I can't decide which aging cartoon beefcake I prefer.
Someone let me know when Steven Seagal endorses Mitt Romney.
But the Stallone endorsement could really put the spring back in
McCain's step.
According to the Philadelphia Inquirer:

John McCain says he's ready to run the steps of the Philadelphia
Museum of Art, just like Rocky Balboa did, now that he's got the
support of actor Sylvester Stallone.
Yes, he'll probably be needing that.
