WASHINGTON, June 17 (by Karin Zeitvogel for RIA Novosti) – Mexicans in the thousands have pledged their support for a political candidate with a different outlook in next month’s mayoral election in Xalapa: a black and white cat called Morris who’s vowing to rid the university city of rats.

“Tired of voting for rats? Vote for a cat. Only a cat can restore order in the face of all the rats who go after political posts,” reads the slogan on the Facebook page of “El Candigato,” which is a play on the words “candidate” and “cat” in Spanish.

Morris is running the purrfect campaign for the July 7 election, with Shepard Fairey-style posters and fliers and slickly produced videos winning him 124,000 pledges of support on Facebook and nearly 4,100 followers on Twitter as of Monday.

Watching GOPers stumble so often I bet this cat stands a better chance of defeating Hildabeast in the 2016 US Presidential election.

The world is succumbing to pedo-infantile behaviors. The gop s silly and dangerous love and admirations of imps like Hillary or zero is no exception, hunger game style on every one, irs tantrums against god believers in particular. It is ridiculous

I would vote for this cat! I’d rather have a Mexican cat in the White House than our present clown.

Last election, I threatened to write in my cat’s name for President. He would have been a much better candidate than either Obama or Romney.

The Cartels will likely decapitate it and leave it in the road, like so many government officials.
