how 'bout (less phallogally-centric perhaps, less dismissively of Hilary...)

Hilary - as Lake Traverse
Obama - as Enzian (I bought a book of illustrations with text by
Lacanian Pynchon-critic
                              aarrgghh can't remember his name, German chap,
                              anyway, there was one picture of Leni Riefenstahl
                               with a tall, striking, naked black man
- a build like
                               the police captain who heads the task
force in The Wire
                               for awhile - Obama if he trained with
Ahnold for a few months...)
McCain - as Pirate Prentice ("big mean mother")
