For a little thread fun, have you all seen this (from hillbuzz). The below are their paragraphs, not mine (and I don't necessarily agree with all of them, though some are right on)
Heres a photoshop thats making the rounds in email the Republican presidential candidates (plus one individual I wish more than anything had run this year, you betcha) as the cast of Gilligans Island.
Governor Sarah Palin = Mary Ann: the All-American girl next door, never afraid to get her hands dirty, who works hard and loves the outdoors. Shes my favorite character on the show and my favorite person in conservative politics. Always leading with a servants heart while loving her country more than anything.
Speaker Newt Gingrich = The Skipper: Larger than life, hes the leader of the group, the captain of the ship, with a sometimes stormy temper, and hes always willing to beat on dummies and chase people around coconut trees when theyve done something stupid (like how hes promised to follow Barack Obama around relentlessly until he agrees to nine hours of Lincoln-Douglas debates).
Governor Rick Perry = Gilligan: The stumbling bumbler and epic disappointment.
Congresswoman Michele Bachmann = Ginger Grant: The diva with the fading career whos down to just a handful of fans.
Ambassador Jon Huntsman = The Professor: So forgettable that most people dont even know his name. If only hed just talk in high school-level Mandarin some more, because people just love that and no one ever thinks its at all creepy. Perhaps well see more of that when he revs up his third party campaign in April or May.
Willard Mittens Romney = Thurston Howell III: There has never in life been more perfect casting.
Luap Nor! = Luvvie Howell: I stand corrected, considering the cozying up to Mittens that this fifth dimensional imp has been doing lately (quick somebody trick him into saying his name backwards again like Superman always does)
Rick Santorum = looks like this was actually Survivor and the poor guy got voted off the island (not that he ever really had required residency status there anyway, even though he claimed to, and just maintained an empty house next door to his mother-in-law).

That is just so good.
So accurate too.
What a hoot.
OMG is that good!It should go viral!!
That’s great but I think Rick Santorum would have made the better Gilligan. He is Newt’s “junior partner” after all.
Great catch!!! This is really funny.
ROFLOL
BO was right...Some have been voted off the island.
LOLOLOL!
