Can You Spin?

Many of the images used for the Politically WILD! decks are used in BOTH the Republican deck and the Democrat deck.

Here is an example:

- Hillary Clinton is a Black Widow Spider in BOTH the Democrat Deck and the Replican Deck.

- Hillary Clinton is a Lioness in BOTH the Democrat Deck and the Replican Deck.

So why did we do this? As we all know the world of politics is all about “spin.” No matter what hits the media world you have to be able to “spin it for good” or you won’t survive in the political jungle.

What does this mean to you? Well, it’s time to test your “spin” power. If you support Hillary Clinton how do you “spin” a negative animal image in to something positive? If you don’t support Hillary Clinton then you probably won’t have any problem coming up with negative comments to make. The main thing to do is try to make sure the images and comments go together.

So watch out, a jungle can be dangerous…espeically when it’s full of politicians. Happy Spinning!

I like both decks, because your able to have a personal opinion on all photos good or bad. It is all perspective. I can see that has been a lot of time and effert in creating the right animal for the right politican. Just looking at the photos strikes all kind of comments. It is a great conversational piece for any occasion. What a wild imagination! I would have not thought of this myself.

Good job!

hmm...

Interesting. Is John McCain a T-Rex, King of the dinosours or just ancient? Maybe, both. Is Hilary Clinton a spider to be crushed under someone’s shoe or is she a black widow devouring the males in her path? I don’t know but it’s fun to ponder over. :D
