I've got kind of a thing for unlikely resemblances.
In the past I've talked about my adamant assertion that Law & Order star and also-ran Presidential candidate Fred Thompson bears a remarkable resemblance to Sam the Eagle from the Muppets, for example, or how former Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson kind of looks like Frankenberry (Google it if you don't believe me).
Rest assured, these were not isolated incidents. I see, or think I see, stuff like that all the time.
Take present California Governor Jerry Brown, who may or may be governor due to senility causing him to believe that this is 1974 again:
Now, it could just be me, but you know who Brown has always kind of reminded me of?
Skeletor, Evil Overlord of Eternia and arch-nemesis of He-Man.
That's not a political statement of any sort, mind you, it's just well, motherfucker looks like Skeletor is all. Can't be helped.
Lest anyone accuse me of being partisan, take the counter example of Brown's opponent in the most recent election: Meg Whitman, eBay CEO and a woman who perpetually has the demeanor and bearing of the Titanic about forty minutes before it plowed into that iceberg:
I look at Meg Whitman, and you know who I see?
Yes, Gill-Man, the frightening but misunderstood amphibious entity from the 1954 Universal classic "The Creature from the Black Lagoon".
Although actually, that picture is from the less-classic but still completely awesome 1987 Tri-Star movie "The Monster Squad". Why did I go with "The Monster Squad"? Do you really even have to ask?
Which means that California politics are a lot more interesting than you might at first have thought. At least, when you frame an election in these terms:
I dunno about any of you, but I'd pay damn good money to watch that one up close.
