Wiggum '08

A new candidate is entering the presidential race this Sunday evening. Ralph Wiggum, from the land of Springfield, USA.



Never mind his fondness for ingesting paste and crayons, or his baffling ronouncements that have even proponents wondering about his mental faculties. An appearance on the Fox show is enough to give Wiggum a bounce in New Hamsphire; if he wins New Hamsphire, he'll have enough momentum to play in South Carolina. What Ralph Wiggum playing in South Carolina would look like is anyone's guess.

This is the exact kind of current events spoof I've been missing from the Simpsons. I especially appreciate it because I have been missing Presidential Primary commentary from late-night hosts like Jon Stewart, who is been off the air as a result of the writer's strike.
