Things have been fairly aggressive between the two presidential nominees as of late, perhaps largely due to a certain comment involving a farm animal and mouth-based cosmetics. That's why we were so glad to see them squash the beef in a recent Saints Row 2 advertisement (posted after the break), combining forces to wreak havoc across Stilwater (much to the chagrin of their respective campaign staffs, we imagine). We're also glad to see that the character customization in THQ and Volition's crime-riddled sandbox is so versatile. We've already begun planning our own presidential nominee superteams for when the game comes out -- we've always wondered what Roosevelt and Dewey would look like in a gang war.

It doesn't really look like McCain or Obama, so if no one even said that it was supposedly them I'd think nothing of it.
Especially if neither approved of it, it's definitely not them, only a reference(which I took it more as).

Haha yeah right...

McCain couldn't even stop the political bashing for 1 day on Sept. 11... Why would they "join forces" in a video game? Chances are this is merely a show of "possibility" to get players enthralled in the idea of almost total character customization.
