The 5 Most Entertaining Dick Moves Of The Election (So Far)

When Ted Cruz began snatching up domain names in preparation for his campaign run, he found that one of them, TedCruz.com, was off-limits. That's because it had been owned by Ted Cruz, Arizona attorney at law, since 2004. Arizona Ted is less than impressed with his political doppelganger, choosing to show his steadfast support for literally anyone else, regardless of which party they happen to fall under. Originally, Arizona Ted thwarted Cruz by shouting his love for Chris Christie from the digital rooftops:

And later by backing Obama:

Another random guy nabbed the site Ted Cruz for America -- it's currently filled with Bible verses referencing adultery, in a pointed jab at Cruz's rumored extramarital sexcapades. And when Jeb Bush was still in the race, the human version of sad puppy dog eyes was forced to direct supporters to jeb2016.com because JebBush.com sent visitors to Donald Trump's campaign page. And for the 30 seconds that Governor Scott Walker was still in the race, supporters who rambled over to ReadyForWalker.com were redirected to PlannedParenthoodAction.org, a not-so-subtle jab at Walker's opposition to sex education and abortion access.

The Internet vigilante activism doesn't stop there. The owner of CarlyFiorina.org has a story to tell, and the perfect platform to tell it, by god. They're still angry about the 2005 mass firings at Hewlett Packard which were partially overseen by Fiorina, who was supervising a merger at the time. For a while, the site reminded everyone of this event by representing the 30,000 displaced employees with an army of sad emoticons:

What could have caused such anger and resentment toward the Potential-Powers-That-Be? What fuels these backhanded acts of rebellion? What did the candidates do to deserve such ire? Well, the unsung heroes in the next entry might have some motivation.

For those of you who don't remember the movie, the ninth rule of Fight Club was "don't mess up an elderly person's daily routine." Which was exactly what Carly Fiorina did when she used a New Hampshire restaurant as the setting for a media event. See if you can spot the breakfast fan who wasn't having a plate of GOP politics that morning:

While most of us might have turned around to watch the spectacle of a campaign disintegrating in real time, Ms. Eggsna Mode projected a force field around herself and kept working on her bacon.

It so happened that this particular student waited two hours before the speech started, and to kill the time, she brought Citizen: An American Lyric, which happens to be a book of poetry about racism. Let's use her own words to describe why she whipped her book out mid-speech:

"He talked about Starbucks and Merry Christmas and I was like, 'OK?' I was waiting for, you know, when is he going to talk about what really matters to me as a young adult, as a black woman," she added. "What is he going to talk about that makes me want to vote for him? And it never got to that point." So instead of looking at Donald Trump's ass for what must have felt like a geological epoch, she got her book back out. Funnily enough, her fellow Trump-ass-watchers disapproved.

As inspirational as reading a book of poetry at a campaign rally may be, most of us don't have that kind of commitment. That's where "Sticker Kid" comes in.

When this college freshman realized he'd scored a sweet on-camera spot behind Clinton after the Iowa caucuses, he knew what he had to do: put some stickers on his face, cross his eyes, and attempt to eat his face stickers without using his hands. Everyone else in the room was at a political celebration; Sticker Kid was at a rave. And let us not forget the two friends who went to a Trump rally and ended up sharing nachos in the most ridiculous way possible.

There's only so much angry ranting a person can take before they give up on political activism altogether. Sure, you could blame it on logical things like blizzards, jobs, and hangovers, but we all know the truth. When you scream at the world long enough, the world stays the fuck home. That's when you get situations like Marco Rubio's practically empty and totally bizarre Little-Caesar's-fueled Super Bowl party where he promised to ban disco, or Ben Carson's 50-person primary party that was so straight-edge that even the bartender was knitting blankets behind the counter.

But at least 50 people at a campaign event is ... sizable. One of poor Martin O'Malley's Iowa appearances was rudely interrupted by a goddamn blizzard, but not even Snowmaggedon could keep Kenneth the Undecided Voter away. The entire event ended up being O'Malley and Kenneth listening to the howling of the freezing winds outside while O'Malley tried to convince Kenneth to pretty please vote for him in November.

Sad as all that may be, we have to commend O'Malley for having the self-awareness to admit that things didn't quite go as planned, and the graciousness to appreciate Kenneth's presence. When Rick Santorum's afternoon campaign stop at an Iowa restaurant was also only attended by one person, Santorum ordered lunch. Unfortunately, Ol' Rick belligerently stuck to his lonely guns, declaring the less-than-mediocre turnout a success and stating that every vote counts before ultimately dropping out of the race.

OK, so school age may be a little too old to start conditioning your child to become the most patriotic voter to ever walk American soil. Babies are impressionable. That seems like a safe bet ...

Finally, we land on the one unsung hero who crosses political lines. The child who unites Democrats, Republicans, independents, and all others in a Hands-Across-America-style love chain and represents our collective discomfort at Ted Cruz's psychologically distressing visage.

His own daughter.
