Politics and the internet game
Posted Mon, 29 Mar 2004

Colourful US boxing promoter Don King has thrown himself into the political arena by lending his voice to a Republican internet "game" attacking Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry, the Republican National Committee has announced.

The "game," found on the web at www.gop.com/kerryvskerry, shows King in a boxing ring announcing a fight between Kerry and Kerry.

"Ladies and Gentlemen — Welcome to Kerry versus Kerry, the battle for the Democratic Party," King announces with his trademark toothy smile and grey mane.

Two likenesses of Kerry — one in blue trunks, the other in red — appear on the screen for "30 rounds" with gloves that say "flip" and "flop". Each round represents a different issue, from the war in Iraq to Israel's security fence.

Republicans have accused Kerry of taking two sides on several major issues.

A person using a computer can make the lanky-looking "Kerrys" punch each other by clicking on the flip-flop gloves as King shouts comments like "That's below the belt!"

"Ladies and Gentleman, what you have just witnessed tonight is some of the greatest dancing, bobbing, weaving, sticking, moving and ducking by Kerry. It was certainly entertaining," King says at the end of the "fight".

But in the last image, it is the gloved hand of a grinning President George W. Bush that King holds in the air.

"So the decision is no surprise. Because of his commitment to the right decisions, his steady leadership round after round. In the blue trunks with the red top: President George Walker Bush!"
