Ooh I got in before the door slammed shut, yay!

They would both cost way too much and play horribly. They're made of people!

I am lowend's retarded sense of humor...

All I know is that the Obama Bass would be ebony with a pearl pickguard...

And the McCain bass would be a Vietnamese import with some heavy relicing.

McCain - An old beat-up Fender with loads of sentimental value. Lots of people will say that it's great because it's a classic, but the fact is it just doesn't play very well.

Obama - A really flashy custom that draws a ton of looks but sounds like crap. However, his band has him set back in the mix where nobody notices what he really sounds like, so the crowd just continues to get off on how cool he looks.

Palin - A decent quality, very attractive bass being played by a bad bassist. People are drawn by the looks, then turned off when they hear a bunch of retarded stuff coming out of it. When you get down to it though, the bass itself really isn't so bad.

Biden - A mediocre off-brand bass with a dull finish. Nothing horribly wrong with it, but nothing really appealing either.

McCain would be a pre-CBS Fender P. Old but reliable, they don't build politicians like him anymore. He doesn't have batteries, he isn't over complicated, he gets the job done.

Obama would be something modern and mass produced. Constructed by a dozen strange designers in some room trying to decide how to appease every bassist. His design will be sleek and new, but the practicality will be lacking.

McCain - Original P Bass, for all the previous reasons.

Obama - Doesn't matter, as long as you can slap it.

Can we now lock this thread and move along?
Yes.
