Joss Whedon 'Endorses' Romney

Presidential elections always fall just a few days after Halloween, yet very few campaigns take advantage of the timing. Leave it to Joss Whedon to make a political spoof ad endorsing Mitt Romney as the right leader for a zombie uprising.

In the midst of what has become a very internet-influenced election year, self-identified liberal Whedon released a video over the weekend calling the Republican presidential candidate the "one with the vision and determination to cut through business-as-usual politics and finally put this country back on the path to the zombie apocalypse."

The clip, which has gotten more than 1.1 million views on YouTube since Sunday, details how the policies proposed by Romney would create just the right environment for the walking dead to take over. Whedon also advises that the new "one percent" will be those who can run fast or know parkour."* Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian break down Whedon's clever endorsement, as well as other political ads for Obama and Romney.
