Politi-speak often comes across as coded and peculiar as baseball's esoteric sign language, leaving the uninitiated asking what it all means. With less than a week until W. starts packing up the Oval Office, electro-pop rabble-rouser Maxx Klaxon offers a unique interpretation of the historic election season. Klaxon closes out his subversive Authoritarian Idol series with a winner-announcing 45-minute mashup of syncopated beats and video that culls footage from reality TV, cable news, and old-school digital animation. The provocative ticket is rounded out by Luke DuBois' ten-minute précis of every State of the Union speech, From Gentlemen to Terror in 43 Easy Steps, and some incisive political shorts.
