Some good news of sorts for John McCain and his supporters … while Senator Barack Obama managed to attain the endorsement of retired General and former Secretary of State Colin Powell, it is now being reported that John McCain has attained the endorsement of a higher power (being?). According to the venerated news publication Weekly World News, McCain has won the endorsement of an Alien from outer space. And while that news alone is well and good, I think the revelation of just how McCain won this endorsement is far more interesting:

In a shocking reversal with major implications for the U.S. presidential election, political kingmaker, the Alien has switched his endorsement from Barack Obama to John McCain amid furor. Both political camps are buzzing about the implications, as the Alien has correctly predicted the winning president in every election for the past 28 years. Ongoing investigation points to Cindy McCain as being the cause for this historic shift in allegiances. Uncovered photos suggest that in a last ditch effort to help her husband’s failing campaign, Cindy McCain seduced and then blackmailed the Alien for his endorsement. At a recent McCain rally, inside sources say Cindy McCain disappeared with the Alien after sharing several champagnes with the notorious intergalactic lightweight. Ms. McCain’s alien-like good looks and natural blood temperature of 54 degrees Fahrenheit may have proved too much for him to resist as she reportedly put her cyborg husband into sleep mode and worked her charms. This is not the first time the Alien, who sources say is no prude, has been in political “hot water.” During the 2004 election he was photographed in a hot tub with Laura Bush and Teresa Heinz Kerry. As the Alien is now married with children the release of these photos could be devastating for him. What impact this news will have on the election has yet to be determined. Swing state voters, who will decide this election, have the highest rate of alien abductions and UFO sightings and are known to vote in accordance with supernatural forces.

Scandalous! It remains to be seen if this endorsement will actually help McCain get elected but this late in the Presidential race … I guess you gotta exploit every advantage. On the plus side for Barack Obama, he has won the endorsement of the famed Bat Boy so … I guess at this point, it’s still anyone’s game.
