Before the previous Presidential debate, we brought a sneak peek of what the political showdown would've looked like as a round of Mortal Kombat, albeit with Donald Trump in place of Mitt Romney. In the end, that projection didn't pan out, as Romney was able to hit the President with a Sub-Zero style freeze ball and by most accounts 'win' the debate. We're willing to cut our losses and try a new method of prognostication for tonight's Vice Presidential debate, and The Daily Beast was kind enough to provide us with the answer we were looking for. They've posted up a Zoolander parody depicting Paul Ryan and Joe Biden duking it out on the runway. It's a walk-off! My own personal political leanings aside, I'm of the opinion that the roles here are totally backward. Biden is Zoolander: the old established pro with a goofy personality who is vulnerable to the occasional goof. Meanwhile, Ryan is Hansel: the young hotshot with big ideas even if he's a bit rough around the edges. In this metaphor, the Ryan Budget is clearly the pulling-the-underwear-out-of-the-pants trick. Even with Biden as Hansel and Ryan as Zoolander, there's still a great amount of joy that can be derived by Ryan's deep red Mitt Romney briefs. The pitch perfect Obama-as-Tyson-Beckford certainly doesn't hurt either
