It's Election Day in the United States of America once again, so if you're eligible to vote, be sure to grab your ID, charge your portable gaming gadget's batteries, and get out there to the line at your local precinct. Tonight we can all come together as a nation and celebrate the great news (by which, of course, I mean that we've finally come to the end of the glut of political advertisements and automated telephone calls stumping for candidates and policies for another few years). Whether you support Barack Obama or Mitt Romney for the presidency, I think there is one thing on which we can all agree: it would be more fun to vote for fictional characters for the office of Commander-in-Chief. Here's a conversation that the Evilcast's Chris Nitz and I had yesterday morning on Twitter in which we debate the policy issues and scandals surrounding two third-party candidates from distant lands.

No matter how tomorrow turns out, one side of the political spectrum is going to declare our country lost & we are all DOOMED! #CavemanDays

@pressthebuttons Man, how could you vote for her? Her stance on Luigi is atrocious. Also, her affair with Bowser....c'mon.

@pressthebuttons And seriously, Mario? That dude is so effing high on shrooms all the time! He'd ruin our country for some crappy coins.

@pressthebuttons I dunno man. I fear Mario would rather be on a kart or tennis court over deciding health care issues for Toadstool.

@pressthebuttons Friggin pill popper. He thinks everything is curable with a double red pill....prick.

@starven Now now, sometimes the pills are yellow, blue, or a combination.And Mario has an alternative energy policy. It's called Starman.

@pressthebuttons Wait, if we elect Mario, does that mean Chomp Chomp gets chained up on the White House lawn?

@pressthebuttons Psh, then I am staying with the Powdered Toast Man/Sven Hoek combination. #TeamSugar #WeAreAllDOOMED

@pressthebuttons Oh like it matters. The council in Hyrule is so divided that nothing is going to get taken care of anyways.
