What characters from today's election are analogous to characters from the Lord of the Rings trilogy?
Sauron: Obviously Bushco. Only question is the Dark Lord Dubya or it is Cheney? Dubya might
be one of the ringwraiths, under Cheney's control.
Saruman: Ralphie-boy Nader. Used to be on the side of good. Now working with Sauron.
Aragorn: For better or worse, Kerry is now the
rightful king, heir of the house of Gore.
Gandalf: Howard Dean. With the ring of fire, he roused the West to fight Sauron. He fell in Moria/Iowa. And now has come back as DFA 2.0
Frodo: Richard Clarke. He has thrown the source
of Sauron's power, the 9-11 ring, into the fires of Mount Doom.
Galadriel might be Hillary Clinton or Pelosi.
Elrond, Samwise, and others yet to be determined.
