What does Batman have to do with the presidential race? Rush Limbaugh says Batman’s new movie could impact the election. How could that be?
Turns out the name of the movie’s villain sounds a lot like the name of Governor Romney’s former company. Here’s what Rush said on his show today:
“This evil villain in the new Batman movie is named Bane. And there’s now a discussion out there as to whether or not this is purposeful and whether or not it will influence voters. It’s gonna have a lot of people. This movie, the audience is gonna be huge. A lot of people are gonna see the movie, and it’s a lot of brain-dead people, entertainment, the pop culture crowd, and they’re gonna hear Bane in the movie and they’re gonna associate Bain. The thought is that when they start paying attention to the campaign later in the year, and Obama and the Democrats keep talking about Bain, Romney and Bain, that these people will think back to the Batman movie, “Oh, yeah, I know who that is.”
Do you think Batman will influence voters? Post your thoughts below!
