Once again we didn't get the chance to go to this year's Comic-Con in San Diego. (Contrary to popular belief, it had nothing to do with our moms not letting us go.) Instead we had to live vicariously through our pal the popGeezer.
Apparently these Star Wars-themed election t-shirts were all the rage at this year's geek gathering. The Star Wars quotes do sound a lot like political tag lines used in that context.
The shirts are now available on the officially-licensed Zazzle.com for your buying pleasure. I'm taking a shine to the Boba Fett one. I'm not so crazy about the art featuring the Clone Wars character interpretations.
You find even more character candidates in the race on the site.
Editor's Note: "Swag Bag" is our regular column of cool, movie-inspired collectibles, toys, and clothing. We like to consider it our version of the gift bags given to annual attendees of the Oscars. The big difference is that we don't have a prestigious awards ceremony to give away this stuff so we simply list the findings here. If you have a suggestion for this feature, please send it to us.
