Watch a music clip with a political agenda, featuring the two presidential candidates

President Barack Obama and Governor Mitt Romney are at each other's throats, Katy Perry style, in this viral video.

This video was uploaded by user Baracksdubs, and it has not only our vote, but that of 35,000 other people as well. The clip received almost 5000 likes since yesterday, most likely all from Katy Perry's fans.

With the elections near, a mashup of the candidates' autotuned voices singing a pop hit was to be expected.

The musical clip ends with Romney declaring his feelings for the president, and being met with laughter.

“I'm sure this is the most romantic place you could imagine – here, with me,” the candidate says. The ending is as inspired and as hilarious as the entire 99-second clip.

We can observe that Romney is always “up,” while Obama is “down,” and, while he is “hot,” Obama is “cold,” so there seems to be a political agenda behind the clip after all.
