Why vote for the lesser of evils?

Written by Marty Dodge

Explore the possibilities of a really powerful third party candidate.

The reasons for voting Cthulhu are rather convincing.

On Homeland Security:

Who would mess with Cthulhu? 'nuff said.

On Foreign Policy:

Our candidate routinely meets with an asian special interest group called the "Tcho tcho". The word "leng" has been heard mentioned many times, and that's the chinese word for "cool"!!

On Mental Health:

Many of you have asked: "What Would Cthulhu Do, if voted into office?" The anwser is: Drive Everyone Mad and Eat Them...

On the Economy and the Environment:

Great Cthulhu has solutions for unemployment and protecting the environment, for after Cthulhu eats half the world's population there will be plenty of job openings and urban sprawl will be a thing of the past.

Marty's band, Growing Old Disgracefully, can be found at: Disgraceful Music. His Cthulhu tales can be found at Temple of Dagon.

Well, that's certainly an interesting party concept. I'm down for it.

Where do I get one of those Cthulhu plastic raised relief decals? You know like the ones for dawin or fish, or dove

You can try here.

If any of you don't know what hell we are on about, here is a handy Guide.

Nylarthotep could probably run a better campaign.

Maybe, then there is always Goat with a Thousand Young. Course some would say she is already involved in politics.

I support Beelzebub instead...

Well they say that people lose their minds at political rallies...they sure will at one of Cthulhu's. Interesting enough, of course, is that Cthulhu would be regarded as another Massachusett's candidate. After all Innsmouth is in Mass.

Step outside the HPL box - vote for The Beast That Shouted Love at the Heart of the World. I expect we could use a little of that right now.

Cthulhy would have the Deep One vote sewn up.
