How Much Longer Until There's a "POLITICAL IDOL" Reality Show?

[Placebo]

I can just see it now, on Fox, no doubt.

The people of Amurka phone in their votes for the Political Idol of their choice, and that candidate ACTUALLY runs for office!

The entire campaign is run by TV producers, the cameras are on 24/7 to capture everything that happens.

I see it coming, mark my words. You will have the networks putting people in office for ratings.

It's like the Truman Show, except the people doing product placements manufacture cruise missiles, jdam bombs, and jet engines.
