For many years we’ve been predicting the Republicans would eventually run an actual muppet for president, and that dream came true when Michele Bachmann ran for the GOP nomination. But since she quit, are there any other bug-eyed bits of cloth and foam and wire that could act stupid and crazy during the primaries? Yes, there is an actual muppet. It is called “Marvin E. Quasniki.”
Here at Wonkette, we are very much against “political humor” and “viral videos” and all that, but we are making an exception because this is basically the plot of a Philip K. Dick novel, and also because it’s a muppet, and because four years from now, the muppet will be taking part in debates and losing the general election to a robot. [YouTube]

#Occupy Sesame Street.
Hell, #Occupy EVERYTHING!
I'll be voting for Marvin E. Quasniki (or Bernie Sanders) this year.
But I will vote!

I'm still standing up for Vermin Supreme. But then, duh!
The boot on his head is sheer genius!
Quasniki in 2016! Actually I thought all of our candidates this year are puppets, just run by the Koch instead of Sesame Street.
They've got SOMEBODY'S hand shoved up their asses, either Koch bro or Rentboy.
Name too ethnic for righties.
Santorum = Anglo?
According to Bob Kerrey it's Latin for Asshole.
Pretty sure Santorum = frothy.
The only reason that smug shitpile is getting *any* traction at all is because he's NotMittRomney, and we all know it.
Quasniki? Lord, too eastern bloc.
Wait, I thought the robot was already the favorite to get the Republican nomination this year?
I thought Mittens was only *mostly* cyborg.
Looks a bit like Paul Simon (the bow-tie guy, not the nebbish musician).
Michael Steele is not impressed.
Quasniki/Beaker '12
Beaker already has the best campaign video ever, so he's a lock.
And not a bad cover either.
Sam the Eagle has more gravitas than the whole human GOP field put together. Hopefully nobody will find out about his transactions with chickenhawk.com
You're all weirdos.
Eric Sweetscent has my vote. What the country needs is a good Artiforg Surgeon.
I'm voting for Bunsen Honeydew myself.
I'm writing in Animal.
Actually, I'm generally in favor of butt-tocuhing.
Me too. Whatever it is.
Animal for Sec. of State. Gotta get some musician/weed smoker representation.
Beware though, the Koch brother muppets will fuck everything up: http://www.thereformedbroker.com/wp-content/uploa...
You sure he's not a Democrat? He has no backbone, after all.
Puppets are corporations, too, my friend.
What ever happened to Layne's Wonkbot anyway? Did she finally have a nervous breakdown? I miss the old girl.
Girl? Oh thank God. I thought I might be gay.
If that wasn't Riley (with possible scripting from Ken and/or other Riley-friends) I'll eat my three fins. THREE FINS I TELL YOU!
Mmm, soup.
Best line: If you win the caucuses you get to live in the State capitol. Much better than getting nothing, as things now stand.
Quasniki has 3 times the personality of Mittens, he's not nearly as phony and I'm guessing he's filled with a fist instead of bullshit. I'm thinking he's overqualified.
Upfisting has gone mainstream!
Only if it gets Elmo's endorsement.
More like Elmo comes out as being "tickled" by the old coot.
I'm not gonna vote for him until I find out whose hand is up his backside.
Quasniki maybe. The purple teletubby, never.
I would've thought Oscar the Grouch would be a good fit for the goopers.
Republicans won't vote for a Joo.
Quasniki/Miss Piggy 2012!
No flag pin = no White House for this guy.
wouldn't be the first time a republican had someone elbow deep in his ass.
But can he get the Bert & Ernie gay vote?
i wonder if tweety got a thrill up his leg.
More sex appeal than Santorum, more lifelike than Romney, makes more sense than Paul, and has a bigger dick than Gingrich. I think we have our next GOP nominee, folks.
Did he call Mitt's sons with their great big teeth "handsome spooky ferrets"?
Thanks to Junior for the Dick joke. If Phil saw the world today, I think it would drive him to drugs.
Puppet TV is a French thing.
I had naturally assumed you were talking about Romney
Wonkette may be against "political humor", but I believe the quotes have been placed incorrectly. After watching that incredibly sophomoric waste of time, I would term it political "humor".
Today we are all handsome spooky ferrets.
