a political candidate who reads the same webcomics I do

You should check out this site. Sean Tevis is running for State Representative in Kansas. His political ad is done in the style of xkcd. From the ad he sounds sane and reasonable (plus it's funny). We can't vote in Kansas but take a look. No, really, it's titled "Running for Office: It's Like A Flamewar with a Forum Troll, but with an Eventual Winner".

Thanks to metallian for the link.
