February 5th Nickname

Okay, it's been called Super-Duper Tuesday, Nuclear Tuesday, Mega-Tuesday and others. I've even referred to it as Armaggedon Tuesday.

But none of them really seems to fit. Until now.

Therefore, I declare this February 5th - "Thunderdome Tuesday"

Two men enter, one man leaves.

That is [not] all.

UPDATE:
Actually I was thinking Romney/McCain but The Abbot has struck upon pure genius. Steve-O! Time to fire up the photoshop on this one, adding the faces of Bubba and SWMNBN:

Who Run Bartertown?

UPDATE DEUX:
Thanks to Sarah G. for pshop.

If you listen carefully you can hear her voice "Who Run Bartertown?!?"

A good analogy. I would wax profound on the topic of Hillary Clinton as "Master" and Bill Clinton as "Blaster", methane as the source of their power while simultaneously serving as a metaphor for both our decayed political discourse and our terrible dependence on fossil fuels, and of all of us as the band of children that the flawed hero Mad Mac will lead into a post-apocalyptic green Paradise, but, well, I'm at work.

Someone's running Barter Town, and it ain't me.

We in New Orleans prefer to call it what it is...

Since no one else has done it: here you go.

I think it came out rather well.
