This photo is totally uncanny. At first, it's kind of funny, but it becomes more of a horror-show the more you look at it. Kind of like this year's primary season!
1). The sexy boy front and center. Gorgeous skin, nice bone structure, beautiful lips. Tricked out in full Hillary regalia; two buttons, a sign and a T-shirt. But why is he so brooding and angry?
2). The look of terror on the old lady's face in the back right. You'd think Hilliary had just flashed her tits or something with the face that woman is making.
3). Woman on bottom right. Confusion? Disbelief? Surprise?
4). The placid calm of those to her right and left. WTF?
5). Why is the grandma in the pale blue giving the look of death to the ethnic woman with a green sign to the bottom left?
6). Look closely behind the ethnic woman. Look at that creepy fuckin' kid! Morbidly obese, ghastly white, beady little eyes. Is it about to puke? Is it male or female? It's like a Mark Ryden painting up in there.
Unfortunately, we are not spared the pleasant illusion of the Imaginary.

"In his fourth Seminar, La relation d'objet, Lacan states that 'the mirror stage is far from a mere phenomenon which occurs in the development of the child. It illustrates the conflictual nature of the dual relationship.' The dual relationship (relation duelle) refers not only to the relation between the Ego and the body, which is always characterized by illusions of similarity and reciprocity, but also to the relation between the Imaginary and the Real. The visual identity given from the mirror supplies imaginary "wholeness" to the experience of a fragmentary real."Do you imagine Hillary's consciousness ever registers this cross section of her "base"? Do you think she can see anyone over the blazing spotlights they use to blow out her face and obscure her age? She probably looks out and sees hordes of adoring fans, a reflection of her own love for herself in the blur of the crowd. Of course that mirror gives wholeness to the terrifying experience of the fragmentary Real.(source: wikipedia)
