"ME, I vote for ME !"

~ Schtroumpfs, the little blue cartoon people satirically decimate everything we hold politically sacrosanct !!!

> Schtroumpf X ===> "Will you vote for ME?"

> Schtroumpf Y ===> "No, YOU?!"

> Schtroumpf Z ===> "Me, I don't like the me's !"

[Editor's note: Mois (me's) incidentally means "months", and  that adds to the absurdity of the whole situation!]
